A dark dark day for DUmmies...

A dark dark day for DUmmies...

Yep...

[Norman Arbuthnot]

They are really sick people...many seem dissappointed that the election in Iraq went so well.

[Wormwood]

A dark dark day for the enimes of freedom and humanity...

Oh, you covered that already.

I have to agree. In all seriousness, there are some very disturbed and dysfunctional people on that website. If ever there was a crowd that would benefit from a little religion in their lives, it's that one.

[SamAdams76]

This is proof that the political world is not round. Because if it was, the DU'ers have gone so far to the left that they would have ran into some of us by now.

[Former Dodger]

How many votes do you think Gregoire will get in Bagdhad?

[MisterRepublican]

I study DU the way criminal profilers study serial killers.

[F16Fighter]

It's like visiting the dungeon floor at a Turkish asylum.

Just hideous...

[Always Right]

These folks aren't the left-wing equivalent of the Freepers

Obviously. Freepers are actually effective.

[Trajan88]

DU is full of folks that see the glass empty when in fact it is full.

What a bunch of bitter grapes they are.

Prozac sales, in the blue counties, prevalent in the northeast and along the left coast, are expected to soar in the next few days. Already pharmacists in these areas are reporting a dramatic upswing in Prozac sales, with the feel good drug flying off the the shelves. Boston, Manhattan, Beverly Hills and San Francisco reporting the most dramatic upturn in Prozac sales.

[PJ-Comix]

How does an article get written about the wackiness of the DUmmies WITHOUT mentioning the DUmmie FUnnies?

[mhking]

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[Dashing Dasher]

I had to read this section seven times before I believed it.
Dan Rather?

Even Dan Rather is declaring, “The Iraqis interim government, the U.S. military, and American diplomats had a good plan and carried it out well... the guerrilla war fighters suffered substantial loss in the election, both in fact and in perception. The momentum shifted in favor of the U.S. military and Iraqi forces a few months ago, and has accelerated in their direction with the election.”

That is why you will find many intelligent people here, both conservatives and independents. The liberals and socialists are much less tolerant and reasoned at the DU site. The discussion level, at Free Republic, is usually so much higher and informed for those who are reasoned in their responses. How can any person who loves their country tolerate such sad anti American comments from the idiots at DU? The few times I have surfed the site it leaves me sickened for I have a low tolerance for such anti American hatred. Can't they learn that life is never perfect and that you have to always try to make the best of every situation?

[Born Conservative]

This election is an absolute fraud. It does NOT represent ALL the groups like the Sunni and the candidates are mostly US puppets.

This should come as no surprise. To a Democrat, ALL elections are fraudulent (except for the elections they win).

[The Loan Arranger]

WHY DID WE REPEAL THIS LAW?


Sedition Act of 1918
May 16, 1918

SECTION 3. Whoever, when the United States is at war, shall willfully make or convey false reports or false statements with intent to interfere with the operation or success of the military or naval forces of the United States, or to promote the success of its enemies, or shall willfully make or convey false reports, or false statements, ...or incite insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty, in the military or naval forces of the United States, or shall willfully obstruct ...the recruiting or enlistment service of the United States, or ...shall willfully utter, print, write, or publish any disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive language about the form of government of the United States, or the Constitution of the United States, or the military or naval forces of the United States ...or shall willfully display the flag of any foreign enemy, or shall willfully ...urge, incite, or advocate any curtailment of production ...or advocate, teach, defend, or suggest the doing of any of the acts or things in this section enumerated and whoever shall by word or act support or favor the cause of any country with which the United States is at war or by word or act oppose the cause of the United States therein, shall be punished by a fine of not more than $10,000 or imprisonment for not more than 20 years, or both....
United States, Statutes at Large, Washington, D.C., 1918, Vol. XL, p. 553 and following.

More than 2,000 prosecutions occurred under the original and amended Espionage Act, the most famous of which was that of Socialist spokesman and draft opponent, Eugene V. Debs, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Both the Espionage Act and the Sedition Act were repealed in 1921.
