or on the baseless speculation of websites that specialize in baseless speculation.

Did I read that right? Apparently Skinner just banned posting links to DU from DU.

If all baseless speculation were to be banned from DU you would just open a blank web page when you enter DU's URL.

The head DUmmie gives you a DUFU , endless material ...

IMOPBFEEMOILOPP ???

[cripplecreek]

It was the first thing listed a google and it was listed as a conspiracy site.

[CaliGirl-R]

Now that's funny. Great description.

[It wasn’t just yesterday that things got crazy in DUmmieland. Try EVERY day. BTW, I am behind in my DUmmie conspiracy theory updates. Just what does IMHOP stand for? I Might Hallucinate On Purpose?]

IMHO usually means "in my humble opinion." I haven't a clue what the end "P" is for.

How can we possibly think about what occured in London when Andy is DEAD!

[carlr]

I have only been around here since last September but I cannot imagine FR needing a thread from a moderator such as this one.
Skinner is sort of like a lion trainer,he knows if he loses control the lions will kill him.

[randog]

I could write pages and pages on the topic of what it means to be open minded, and the importance of drawing conclusions based on evidence versus starting with a conclusion and then cherry-picking evidence to fit -- but I think that is a topic for a different post.

Perhaps I could suggest a title for that topic: How to Think Like a Conservative

[decal]

Is he, now? Did someone find a death notice from a real newspaper?

----How can we possibly think about what occured in London when Andy is DEAD!----

Also Bush's fault -- oops, can't say that! :)

For example, allow me to use an extreme hypothetical: I think it is safe to say that few of us would like Democratic Underground to become widely known as that place where people believe space aliens cause tsunamis.

Wow, that looks like Skinner is telling DUmmies that the tsunami WASN'T caused by "Repuke" space aliens!! I bet that 90% of all DUmmies are still in shock over that bombshell.

[gate2wire]

"A bounty was offered by the Bush right for anyone who could sneak into his hospital room."

This was an actual quote from a DUmmie.
Some do blame Pres. Bush.

"Repuke" space aliens

How long do I have to be a member of the Evil Empire before I get my jetpack?

I WANT MY JETPACK!!!!!!

[shezza]

All your baseless speculation are belong to us.

[shezza]

I presume you already have your BFEE Secret Decoder Ring. "B-E-S-U-R-E-T-O..." Be sure to what??? Be sure to what??? (Must be some important message from Rove...)

[Laurita]

Yeppers! Heck, I still have my Karl Rove decoder ring from the election. Of course I know not to use it anymore, it's undoubtedly fallen into enemy hands by now and has been compromised. BTW, today's challenge-response-response words are "pad", "salt" and "baby". But don't tell the DUmmies!

A few words about the discussion of the London bombing on DU

London bombed DUmmieland? I hadn't heard.

I know they can be irritating, infuriating even, but this is a bit much.

[Charles Henrickson]

embarrassed by his own DUmmieland kook fringe

DUmmieland actually has a kook main stream. The sane ones would be the fringe.

[franksolich]

You want to see DUmmie kooks, we have a photo for you, but can't post it. Recently posted in DUmmieland.
