Kuckily as it happens, FR is the only thing vaguely like social networking that I do.

Funny, I doubt the rats bother data mining here for nuggets to use in campaigns.

What you type, language used, and sites visited are unique enough to identify individuals.

The DNA of the computer age! How progressive!

Anyone buy any dinosaur stamps lately in this microwave age? Hurry up, I can't wait forever for an answer - I'm late for my Constitutional law class.

Oh wait, it was cancelled. Hmmm.

See my number 13 post to see why you should still be alarmed.

“IP is almost arbitrary unless the ISP is giving up info. “

The ISP is giving up the info and IP allocation is hardly arbitrary. There is no obscurity with the amount of resources they have available.

There are only 314 million people in the US and about 245 million of them use the internet. That is a relatively simple number of unique identities to track.

They must have a literal army of analysts.

Hell, my soccer mom friends are listening to Alex Jones these days and getting pretty radical.

Women I have known for a decade or more. We used to take our kids to the park together when they were 4, 5 years old, politics never came up. We go to luncheons now and suddenly it dominates conversation.

Granted, I have always been a political freak but when I see Stacy in her minvan suddenly buying gold and going to the range, I gotta admit it's a little surreal.

The founders were very wise men.

And only the wise listen to them and act accordingly and they are PATRIOTS. The British Big Government minions are coming!

Gentlemen, I think all of us agree, that the GOPe as a political entity is, if not dead, then at the least is on terminal life support.

All the counter-intel and social networking on the planet will not resuscitate it. Let us gather by the bedside, and listen for the death rattle, pay our final respects, and then off to the pub where we form the new party.

“There are, at present, NO laws preventing such a thing!!!!”

In a nation founded on liberty, that should not be an issue.

Yes, they were. Unfortunately, they were not prescient enough to know that there should have been an 11th amendment to the bill of rights. Term limits for Congress and the Senate. That is in my mind the single most destructive thing of our Federal government. We have created an ruling elite. Congress is bad, worst ratings in the world. But, NOT MY CONGRESSMAN!

We need to amend the constitution and make term limits for non only the President but for Representatives and Senators!!

Republicans need to join the Google age and get far better at this kind of thing.

I hate to use this phrase, but.... Laz is right... there, I said it. Our side absolutely SUCKS at this and we are being trampled upon. This isn't about dumbing down our message like so many claim we will do if we join the internet age. This is about making our message applicable to the people. To do that, you have to understand the people.

Hell, you just have to, at minimum, SHOW UP.

We aren't even doing that.
