Does anyone have a copy of that warning message that someone hacked onto DUmmieland on Election Night 2002; that message "ALL YOUR SENATE BELONG TO US!"

I was not a member of FreeRepublic at the time, and am curious; how did the DUmmies react to this apparition?

Not that I would suggest anyone do this again--my screen-name implies good honest clean sportsmanship--but I thought it would be some good FreeRepublic "history" for newcomers, at the same time providing some laughs and chuckles.

Spasiba.

Yeah, I wish I knew more about what the reaction of DUmmies was, that night, when this showed up on their web-site. I'm hoping some long-time inhabitant here can illuminate the rest of us--I bet it was hilarious.

They went ape sh!t. The image didn't last long at all and soon after they shut down their site to anyone who wasn't a financial contributor. It stayed that way for days.

The shut down was due partly to the hacking and partly because they were in shock at the losses.

Remember this was just over a week since Wellstone died (his death blamed on Bush) and their precious early exit polls showed them doing well. By about 8PM that night, the networks gave up on exit polls because they were so bad.

Thanks, sir; are you by any chance in northeastern Pennsylvania?--that is where the maternal ancestors are from.

I really need a karmic hug

Does anyone else?

Please tell me that no matter wha-- we still love each other---the way the freepers never can/will.

Oh please sweet Jesus please say we do. I am hurting so bad.
I know I'll be better once I sober up but goddess, I really believed we'd do better than this.
