Are we being watched?
Do you think any of the various security services, fbi, cia, etc actually monitor DU? How can I get that job?

If so will it mean I get a full body search on entry to the US?

Just curious.

G.M.

2. There is ample evidence that they do...
and you'd think if they had any freakin decency at all, they'd make a financial contribution to the site and volunteer to moderate forums once in a while.

22. At least one DUer was visited by the Secret Service...
who carried a bundle of printed posts from DU. Whilst we are no threat to America's security, we pose a huge threat to the Republican party. Hence the interest.

25. Hi Agent Mike! No, he doesn't get to post, and you don't want his job.
Agent Mike's employer is planning on screwing him out of his healthcare benefits and his pension. Agent Mike used to work in a cubicle, now his boss has him sitting in the back of a mini-van with blacked-out windows - for double-shifts. While on-duty, Agent Mike has to pee in a cup.

Agent Mike got in trouble for posting. Then he got in trouble for spending too much time in the Lounge. That's why Agent Mike's in the back of the mini-van with blacked-out windows.

Poor Agent Mike, he just wants to get back to his cubicle.
;( :nopity:

13. Should we speak in DU "code"????
Okay, here's a secret message: As the ear of the elk ceases to seek the heart of the cabbage, so does the honk of the gander beckon the turtle from its shell. PS: hope the wife and kids are fine. (wink)

Their offspring contained the blood of halfbreeds.
For dark is the suede that mows like a harvest.
