I guess I am a "Terrorist." I didn't know that. Maybe I am "in training"?

That would certainly explain some of the experiences I had in November/December of 2004 when I was working with other Americans on investigating Election Fraud 2004. We used to make jokes that we were DEFINITELY being wiretapped because we would constantly hear "clicking" -- it was something that had never happened on my phone lines before (and hasn't happened in about a year).

One time I was talking with someone (I think it was Andy Stephenson), and I put him on speaker phone (because my hand held unit was out of battery juice). My husband (not a tin foil hat guy, if you know what I mean) started asking what the "clicking" and stuff was all about, and we explained it was now "normal" for the level of conversation we were having.

Were there "secret" warrants out on us? Or no warrants at all? Who knows? I hope the folks listening in got a good education on the methodical steps we were taking to investigate the integrity of the election process, and I hope as fellow Americans the stuff we learned pissed them off, too. I never got a sympathy note or anything about the stuff going on in my family (my father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer two days before Christmas, and passed in March of last year), but it was probably pretty boring. (I was crying a lot.)

But, apparently I am a terrorist sympathizer. You see, when it comes to the Bush administration, I'm not with them, so to paraphrase George W. Bush, I'm against HIM. By logical (or at least Republican Right Wing Whacko) definition, that means I support Al Quaida and Crew.

For crying out loud, its been four years and I still don't even know what the hell Al Quaida WANTS!!! Something about keeping American troops out of Muslim holy sites or something, maybe? I'm not sure. I've totally fallen down on my job as a Terrorist-in-Training. How can I recruit others to "hate America" and stuff (which is a problem, because I love my country) when I don't know the talking points?

I am so ashamed! :eyes:

Well, since I know DU is full of other "terrorist sympathizers" (hey, I'm talking about YOU!), let me provide my fellow "terrorists" some useful information on that guy we're "against."

The president of the United States (or the current pretender to that throne) resides at:

The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

You can call and leave a message for him at (202) 456-1111. Or you can fax notes to him at (202) 456-2461.

There is even a website (www.whitehouse.gov) and you can e-mail him at comments@whitehouse.gov if you want to spam him with messages about viagra and on-line pharmacies, or some other nasty terrorist like activity.

You can also find out his daily schedule from any of our mainstream media sources because he likes the publicity. One of the easiest ones to use can be found here: http://www.abcnews.go.com/Politics/TheNote/ -- sometimes they even give you the time he's going to show up, and where. Ignore the large crowds of pissed off people holding signs whining and complaining about the war, the environment, women's medical health, etc.; he certainly does.

Last, but not least, fellow terrorists, if you want to meet him, its going to cost you. Just go here: www.gop.com -- they will be happy to set up a meeting for you, or let you appear at a "fund raising" dinner for him, or something like that, but only if you have a checkbook or credit card available. (Yeah, they'll sell him out to you; they're good that way.)

And bin Ladin? I hear there is a bounty on your head. Well, rumor has it that your family is rich; maybe you should return the favor? Then again, since you apparently haven't done that, I have to assume you aren't particularly worried about him, hmmm?

Dammit. You really *do* hate America!

NOTE: This message is full of sarcasm, but if you are really worried about it, PM me and I'll confirm it in person. Sigh. Agent Mike, I'm talking to you....

1. I heard an Ohio Voter Advocate on C-span this morning
She was describing how her emails would disappear from her computer while she was working on election fraud in 2004. She said it happened to many other advocates she worked with. I am sure ameriKa is loaded with "terrorists" like y'all. :grr:

3. Something similar happened to me.
I think whoever was "intercepting" my e-mail on my yahoo account took a weekend off, because one time I stopped getting ALL messages on a Friday night, and then they "mysteriously" all showed up (time stamped for correct delivery) on Monday morning after 9:00 a.m.

I was pretty small potatoes in Election Fraud World (despite some of the national publicity I got). There were only two "death threats" in my e-mail (both pretty dumb), and I turned them in as appropriate. The one that was kind of "personal" was the "personalized virus" that came via a specially named word document -- it was MY NAME.doc -- and it really torqued me off. Ah, well. Thank goodness for back-ups, right? :)

2. I was just thinking the other day
My phone line clicks routinely...If we aren't on the phone, we can hear the noise through the computer or through the the subwoofer to the stereo. When it first started, over a year ago, it was a joke. We thought it was interference from my husband's new cell phone. Then, I realized that even when he was out of town for a eek at a time, the noise was still there. My stepdad heard the noise and asked what it was. I told him that it was Agent Mike listening in, and we had a little laugh. After that, every time he heard it, he would scream "I love George Bush!", or "I called this number by mistake!", but to him it was still a joke.

I flew to Chicago to see my brother in December, the first time I'd flown since 9/11. Both on the flight out and on the flight home, I was "randomly selected" for the extra search. I was flying back home the same night, so there was no checked luggage, but I was wanded and patted down, my purse gone through and swabbed for bomb residue. I'm supposed to go back next weekend with my children...I wonder if I'll be "randomly selected" again.

During the push to Torpedo Alito, I have filled out the webform of nearly every senator, regardless of party. I listed my cell phone number as my work number because if I'm online, they will never get through. Two days later, the clicking noises appeared on my cell phone. It wasn't static, or the usual crappy connection...it was the same rhythm of clicks that I hear at home. I've had the same phone for several months, and this has never happened before.

If I wasn't on a list somewhere already, I'm sure that after placing an order online for books the other day, I am now. All three books are ones that I'm sure the Administration would rather that I didn't read...State of War, James Risen, Take it Back, James Carville, and See No Evil (The book that Syriana was based on), Robert Baer.

They hate us for our freedoms? Yeah, right.

7. I'm really thinking about filing an FOIA lawsuit
In order to get a copy of all the pictures that various government agencies have taken of me at various protests. Then I could a nice little scrapbook of my life of protests, age nine and up. I think it would be quite cool.
