4. Not my idea of entertainment.
I don't even read their sites, let alone waste time posting on them.

6. Depends on your definition of 'disrupt'
I used to post on Hannity's board in my young political days (summer '04), but I didn't hide my intentions. I argued civilly and left of my own free will when it became clear giving them facts was a waste of time.

One of the things I remember posting about was the discovery of the 400 tons of looted munitions from the ammo dump south of Baghdad. I said those munitions would be used to kill our soldiers and that there was no excuse for Bush** not to have ensured they stayed put. Well, I got every lame excuse under the sun in defense of Bush**. "Oh, that happened before we got there!", so I laid out the timeline showing that the US military had been there, found it still under seal and secure, and moved on. "They were on their way to Baghdad, they didn't have time to stick around!" to which I replied that that was a mistake of planning; there should have been enough troops to secure the ammo dumps. On and on came the whining and attacks in defense of Bush**, with no thought for the military, something I also pointed out.

I haven't bothered "disrupting" since leaving there, although I do enjoy reading what others post here from FR which is just as big a cesspool of inanity.

7. No. It isn't worth my time. I do respect people who post on
mixed message boards to inform the uninformed - but it isn't worth anyone's time to post on strongly right-wing partisan boards - IMHO.

8. Much As I Find It To Be Utterly Childish When Done Here, I'd Think The Same For Those Doing It There

9. Yes, but I bring facts with me, like actually votes from Senate.gov
They really hate that.

10. No, but I attempted
I joined Free Republic under the name Jesus4Bush but they banned me before I was even able to get a single post up.

12. Other.
I have never disrupted a board, repuke or otherwise, not because I'm afraid they will get me, but because it's not my style to go where I'm not wanted. If they desire to be willfully ignorant, I am willing to let them. Besides, if you try to argue with a freeper type it just strengthens their resolve to back their point of view, regardless of the facts.

14. Other...
...I sort of have and have not. Since its my local papers BB, which just happens to be dominated by re-thug ass hats, I do not feel that I disrupted a "re-puke" BB necessarily. Now, those dark age goons would say that I am a disruption, but they say that about everyone that does not submit to their will.

So, yes and no to the question.

15. Fun With Hate Radio
I have the chance to scan radio stations across the country (including those not on the "internets") and love finding some right wing moonbat on a small local station and have some fun. First...they freak out at at 250 watt station in Tucson getting a phone call from someone listening in Chicago (magic...it's pure magic I tell ya)...and then my fun begins. Nothing is more fun that turning a talk show host who thinks he's hot shit into a bowl of jello in 30 seconds or less. Most of these morons rarely have people like me listening (or for more than 10 seconds) and fold like a cheap suit when they're confronted with their lies and talking points. My rule is to keep it short...i rarely go more than a few minutes...get in my shot and then sit and listen to the doofus and his apewads mope about it for the rest of the show.

16. The few times I have ventured in.. I just told it like it is and got banned.
Yes, telling the truth does disrupt them.
