WTF ... someone on another group is trying to get me in trouble
I frequent another online message board, and occasionally we talk politics. Well, for the past few days I've been in a discussion about Iraq/WMD etc and I mentioned Bush strutting around the Lincoln with his crotch stuffed. The person I was sparring with posted something about me being obsessed with Bush's crotch and then told me that they'd forwarded my postings to whitehouse.gov "just for fun, don't you know" ... jeebus, what a fuckhead. Does this mean the SS is going to show up at my house now? Welcome to the fall of America

1. probably not
unless you said something threatening. if they do pay you a visit, just ask if you have the right not to speak to them. if they want to come in your house to speak, ask if you have the right to keep them out. or, if you want to have some fun, get a videocamera and tape them as they interview you. post it on the internet. that would really annoy them.

2. I doubt it. Tweety and G. Gordon Liddy beat you to it.
Frankly, tell them thanks but no thanks but you will
pass the threat on to that person's ISP and ask them
to kick that person off for making threats.

That should take care of it.

3. Let my cite other examples of the same Freep ruse
"My brother's in the Secret Service and you'd better watch what you say!"

"I'm a lawyer and I know how to sue you for lible" (sic).

"I know people who know people and you'd better start checking your rearview mirror."

etc. etc. etc.

They frequently resort to this kind of crap when their frontal lobes shut down. Something they have trained their frontal lobes to do, through long hours of self-discipline in the arcane arts of egomania and willful blindness.

Just take it as the closest this person can come to intellectual honesty--i.e., acknowledging that you've won the argument--and move on.

7. I just filed a harassment complaint with AOL
and I told them that I would be contacting my attorney regarding this issue. I said nothing threatening in my post. As a matter of fact, here's my post and the idiot's response:

LOL idiot ... it wasn't I parading around with a codpiece. But it does fit in nicely with the image the Boy King likes to present to the world. Or perhaps you didn't read the articles mocking his obviousness

To our "Sock Puppet Sue:"
Nope sorry little sue, but I had not heard of his manhood or cod piece until YOU thought it nice to bring up. Your post was so interesting, I copied her and mailed it whitehouse.gov. just for fun, don't you know. Perhaps I am wrong... You may be 14?

4. The Intimidators are being swept out of the White House
might want to let the little freeper know this kind of threat isn't going to work anymore.

6. Well, I never call or write the White House for anything
I consider it a waste of time, money and/or stamps. Why would I want to communicate with the White House? They don't care what the people think. I do, however, call Congress at least twice a week - Byrd, Waxman, Daschle, Conyers

9. Just for fun
Tell this person you filed a complaint with the Dept of Homeland Security that they were wasting valuable govt resources filing by emailing a frivilous complaint about you.

Just for fun you understand...
