She changes her name to fit whatever she is doing. She should never have been voted on at all.

Sure - which cell block? :)

And I presume that Van Oost Chocolates will be acceptable? Note that I'll probably have to wrap them in a copy of "Audacity of Hope" or "Rules for Radicals" or a compilation of Reverend Wright's sermons, but I don't think that will affect the flavor too much...

*drool*

I think you can put them into two ziplock bags and the poo flavor from the books will stay out.

>>Sure you will.<<

I’ll only share with the FReepers.
I’ll sell to the guards.

Morrissey got the last name wrong. It’s Linda Sanchez, Loretta’s sister. (Bad enough to have one in Congress, but with two it’s like double jeopardy.) Not to be confused with Linda Chavez, a Republican.

Glad you would share with the Freepers; but exactly what do you plan to sell the guards? LOL

The good chocolate.
I figure by the time this all comes down, the chocolate will be worth more than any other currency.

Chocolate and cigarettes will be gold in Conservative prison! Even for the guards once stagflation hits.

And adding to that, they are imprisioning all the real workers.

The “Piggies at the trough” economy will not do well without us.

Wish I could be there to meet you, but I'll probably be in the Morgue along with a bunch of the Brownshirts who Obama sent to get me.

I have a feeling there will be more FReepers with me than with you.

You may well be right. I fear my DH (the former Marine) will be in your vicinity.

I would be proud if he was. I will mot cede my wonderful Country to the Internal Enemies who seek its destruction.

Hope you don’t mind me going ahead and using the CWII list, JB, but this seemed like a no-brainer for a ping.

I’ve read those laws too, and believe they are - as far as the Leftist mindset operates - poorly worded solutions driven by good, if flawed, intentions consistent with the general mindset of some half of this nation. Ergo, I do not believe these are being implemented with malicious intent.

However ... these laws are grossly beyond powers clearly delegated, and limited, by the Constitution. These laws, albeit well-intentioned, are so profoundly broad as to impart downright totalitarian powers to individuals. They are not totally flagrant in their allowance, but are so close to despotic that lawyers will be bickering endlessly about what is permitted while victims of these laws rot in prison or lose all they have. They go too far, by far.

I don’t know how to oppose such reaches toward tyranny. Nothing wrong has been done. These laws will go on the books, and stay there, and be used, until concrete cases with victims of clear standing can organize a legal defense - at which point it will be too late.

Sounds a lot like my books, which are (so far) fiction.

You know, I will be sad to be locked up but it will be nice to finally meet all of you FReepers.

Indeed, at least we will have something in common to talk about. :P

still waiting for domestic terrorism to start showing up, it hasn’t yet. Nothing to the power grid or organized political movement, heck I haven’t even seen spray paint on over passes that would indicate anything wrong. The tea parties are a failure if they don’t move one man to action.
