Who's "snooping' on DU - I see "the 12th_man" gave ME honorable mention!!
.
.
.

First off I gotta give Screamin' Lawd Byron credit for inspiring this post. :thumbsup:

I did the "google" on just my nic "ConcernedCanuk"

and then followed a link back to "the 12th_man" , who by the way turned ONE year old on Feb Fri 13th, 2004 ("The 12th_man officially turned one year old on February 13th at 3:30 am EST (GMT -05:00)."

Apparently comments I made here on DU inspired this "honorable mention" by the creator(Alex) and a gurl named Celissa -

Glad they are paying attention !!

their comments: (edited a bit for space value only)

" have proceeded exactly as I predicted they would (right here, in their face, in their own forum). Many of the same posters who were earlier calling for the U.S. to use a strong hand to squash riots are now in a frenzy because our troops did just that. ConcernedCanuk writes, "Pretty sad when I am not amazed to hear troops shooting peeps that are innocents. Ambulances, vans full of women and kids, and heaven forbid some governmental dissenters ! 0h ya, they wanted Iraqis in their government, naughty Iraqis."

I would love to see what Mr. Concerned would do when suicide attackers charge him from ambulances and blow up his friends... what he would do when next he confronted an angry mob throwing stones and shooting AK-47s in his direction.
posted by Alex | 4/29/2003"

RESPONSES INCLUDED THESE TWO COMMENTS - -

Celissa - 05/07/2003 18:59 | perma-link

Mr. Concerned Canuck would do one of two things:
1. He would try to commiserate with his attacker(s) and use that sterling leftist logic of "let's hold hands my brothers" and get turned into meat sauce or

2. Run and hide behind the nearest soldier he can find who will protect him. He will them proceed to harangue said soldier on the horrors and the amorality or shooting that "innocent" bomber and/or gunman.

DU is nothing but a rag-tag band of barking moonbats who have nothing better to do than cry, "Woe is me!" when they wouldn't know hard times if they bit them on the ass.

They aren't worthy of our time or consideration.

Screw 'em.

- Celissa (circa 2003)

I couldn't agree more, but something keeps drawing me back there.

I actually had an account so that I could post messages to try to enlighten a few of the fringe players who had hope. The site admins shut me down after about 24 hours when a few people actually seemed to be seeing the light.

They left about half of my posts, but the ones who actually made a few of their members sit up and take notice have been clensed from their twister history.

...ah cencorship, aint it grand.

/END OF SNIPS from the 12th_man /

SOOOOOoooooooo . . .



WHO'S TALKING ABOUT YOU !!! ??

6. "rag-tag." How come that word has a positive connotation to me?
Oh, yeah, Battlestar Galactica! Thanks for remembering that for me!

3. I did a google search on my name a few months ago...
And got so paranoid about what I was seeing that I stopped posting for a few days. The funny thing is that my name is derived froom an old Firesign Theatre record, yet I got no Firesign-related hits in my google search....just hits from FR.

These fuckers are like junior Ashcrofts, hall monitors for the new fascist dominion....

"And look at ConcernedCanuck, talking shit about the principal and he doesn't even have a hall pass! It looks like detention for you, CC...."

4. Mine just came up with one article -- but a damn good one.
"The Backlash Cometh" was the name of an article which predicted an increase of American anti-globilization. It was written by a Carnegie foundation in September 2001. It rings truer today than in yesterday.

7. you gave color to a gray world
Edited on Fri Mar-05-04 12:14 PM by cosmicdot
black and white world, mostly gray

did they mention "Canada" in a negative way? if not ... that would be a plus ... they could have written 'they aren't worthy ... anyway, they're Canadian' (they likely didn't get the connection)

"They aren't worthy of our time or consideration."

too late

:hi: I'll say hi ... being friendly and stuff

Delusional:

I actually had an account so that I could post messages to try to enlighten a few of the fringe players who had hope. The site admins shut me down after about 24 hours when a few people actually seemed to be seeing the light.

8. "cencor or swim ... or risk being 'clensed'" ??
.
.
.

surprised you didn't notice, (or did you . . ) that "censorship" is spelled wrong ?

I purposely did not correct it before posting - -

I would think that they should AT LEAST be familiar with the word "censorship" ??

oh right

the word

not the spelling . .

silly me :silly:

(of course I realize that "clensed" is just a typo - - :evilgrin: )

9. My name is co-opted by a fair number of people as a screen

name, and is also the name of an alternative health clinic in the UK, the name of a record label, name of a couple of art sites, e-mail name used by an anthropogist and by a Scout leader, and the name of several science or health-related games or teaching units. No FR listings in the hits I went through but someone who could be a freeper at a music site is mad at "me" over what "I "said about Britney Spears:

"... dembones remarked, "See, here is the deal ya little hussy. The shrub fans think
you are a slut, and aren't going to bye your albums. ... fuck off dembones. ... "


At least my doppelganger doesn't like Bush*, either, referring to "shrub fans."

:evilgrin:

10. Yay! I'm on a hit list somewhere now!
Googled my name, and found this on:

http://www.rightwingnews.com/category.php?cat=23

Titled:

The Democratic Underground Post Of The Day: Osama Is Innocent!

I had no idea I said Osama was innocent! Silly Repubs. Need to learn how to read better. I said the Saudi's are more likely the culprit.

But it tickles me to see my name and a quote in print. Is that it? Is that my fifteen minutes? Is it over? What do I do now???

:hippie:

12. On the plus side,
After peak oil, they'll be in the same situation. With dwindling resources, only the powerful and wealthy can connive to survive.

And if you ask me, I doubt those freepers are upper class people. They're the same as us except they've been brainwashed by the very people who'll step on them during a disaster.

13. Huh?
Can someone please explain to me why the previous message was deleted? It simply pointed out the fact that ConcernedCanuk actually traded emails with the 12th_man about 6 months ago.

And that the emails were a fair and enlightening exchange of ideas. (facts that ConcernedCanuk can verify)

It also admitted that the "12th_man" is willing to admit when he makes mistakes and then went on to point out proof of those facts.

Why in the world would that message get deleted?

14. Please read the DU rules
We ban conservative disruptors who are opposed to the broad goals of this website. If you think overall that George W. Bush is doing a swell job, or if you wish to see Republicans win, or if you are generally supportive of conservative ideals, please do not register to post, as you will likely be banned.

If you have been banned from Democratic Underground, you are not permitted to log on again using a different username. Previously banned members will be immediately banned, regardless of behavior.

16. Not a freeper
Just as an FYI, Alex/the 12th_man is not a freeper. He's my brother so I can vouch for that.

He actually voted for Clinton twice and then Nader (which almost got him banned from the family), but is definitely pulling for Bush now. We've had more than zero arguments about that too.

Anyway, he says "thanks" to the Moderator for responding to his question and for keeping up his last message.

17. Hmmm - I guess it's time for me to explain a few things - -
.
.
.

FIRST of all, I did NOT trade e-mails, actually, I never even HEARD of the 12th man until I googled my own nic and found my name mentioned there

I thought that was clear in my original post -

My post was SUPPOSED to encourage others to discover where their name might be lurking on the web, . . not a diatribe on the 12th man

there are no e-mails to verify, and I never even "lurked' there.

I discovered the 12th-man on the date of this original post

that simple

sorry - no conspiracy here !

:silly:

21. Keep posting
Edited on Sat Mar-06-04 03:52 PM by scottcsmith
All but one of my hits on Google are posts from here. There was one post from the now-defunct "eye on the left" web site where they made fun of me because, in a post where I suggested Conservatives do not like to read, I misspelled ONE word. I've read many posts over at the good ole' Free Republic, and I don't think many folks there are taking advantage of any spell-check features.

You know debate has sunk to the grade-school level when a typo is all you can fixate on, without addressing the subject of the post.

My header was CONSERVATIVES DO NOT LIKE TO READ BOOK

Yes, I forgot the 's' at the end of 'book' and it makes me look like an idiot.

I think I'm going to start posting outrageous, crazy far-to-the-left stuff just so I get mentioned more often by right-wingers.

Since I'm bored, I'm going to see if I can get my web site linked to some right-wing web sites. It should be loads of fun. More fun than the friggin' bronchitis I currently have.
