- DukeMojo, on 10/10/2007, -7/+271Good, they can start by watching me jerk off. I'm sure after about 5 hours of that they'll leave me alone.
- FurtThePirate, on 10/10/2007, -5/+242So I heard chocolate rations are going up 20% next week.
- Napoleone, on 10/10/2007, -7/+138Add this to the list of crimes and impeachable offenses Bush has racked up and Congress has failed to hold him to account for.
The Posse Comitatus Act explicitly prohibits the use of military personnel and resources for law enforcement purposes. Bush has proved time and time again he does not believe there are limits to his authority as President. What is wrong with the Congress??? Why won't they act?! - hawkspur, on 10/10/2007, -3/+91Another step closer to a fascist state and yet all the safeguards in place to prevent this from happening as outlined by the Founding Fathers are not being utilized and we are slowly becoming everything our country was founded to stand against. What does it take before we act?
- DaSuHouSe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+82Next week we will always have been at war with Iran as well.
- T8erT0T, on 10/10/2007, -5/+78Cheers Democracy, we had some good times together kiddo.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -13/+79bush has a 30% approval rating, and 64% disapproval rating
he has no one to blame for his miserable failures but himself,
and by being a bush sympathizer you are only emboldening him to continue.
i assure you that calling the US constitution "just a goddam piece of paper" will result in REAL outrage, well at least among real Americans.
So, do you like him because he claims to be a christian, or is it because he is responsible for killing so many muslims?

I DISAPPROVE OF THIS CONGRESS, because they will not do their JOB and control Bush's irresponsible disregard for his presidential oath of office. surveys say that is why most other people disapprove of the congress... - omenmedia, on 10/10/2007, -0/+49Ceiling cats will become mandatory installations in every new apartment.
- ToxicGas, on 08/11/2008, -6/+54someone needs to organize an revolutionary group (possibly like the one in Fight Club) to counteract all of the things that this administration has done to us.
- vat0r, on 10/10/2007, -5/+43"assure the American people that their privacy and civil liberties will be protected"
Give me a break. - carpespasm, on 10/10/2007, -4/+41if you're going at it for 5hrs you're probably having some pretty serious problems.
- DaSuHouSe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+35Learn something about the US government DreadPirate. Congress can't pass anything that Bush decides to veto without a 2/3 majority, which means it's NOT controlled by the Dems. Also if you haven't noticed the country (well at least the Digg community) is fed up with federal government in general, not just Republicans.
- pianomahnn, on 10/10/2007, -0/+33What's wrong with the people? Why won't they act?
- R34C7, on 10/10/2007, -1/+34In what world is blind patriotism the definition of conservatism. I assume you are attempting to make some abstract reference to the superiority of the conservative party to which you belong. I assure you that disliking a conservative white house does not make you liberal and in fact spying in the homeland as this article suggests is against limited government that conservatism boasts at the root of its values.
- Eallan, on 10/10/2007, -2/+34More digg comments ought to do it.
- carbonetc, on 10/10/2007, -3/+32It's great watching our world gradually develop into exactly what countless writers and visionaries have exhaustively been warning humanity about for a centuries. Really it is.
- satx, on 10/10/2007, -3/+31How the ***** is Congress' ***** relevant to the point at hand? Talk about a non-sequitor.
- Mitchbones, on 10/10/2007, -2/+29WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH - spyd3rweb, on 10/10/2007, -2/+29Get off your damn couches and go protest if you have any love for America and the Constitution.
- TheSabre, on 10/10/2007, -6/+32Hmmmm....
From TheDailyKos: "This new division of Homeland Security was conceived entirely by the Executive Branch, with no Congressional input, and will serve as a clearinghouse for requests to access the data provided by military spy satellites, with a resolution of inches, to view the territorial United States."
From the DHS website that Kos links to: "Congress agreed with this approach and provided funding for the office to initiate operation in the fall of 2007. Intelligence and Appropriations oversight committees have been briefed and approved the reprogramming."
And Kos has the audacity to accuse the government of using scare tactics? The Daily Kos needs to look in the mirror. - AlbinoRaven, on 10/10/2007, -2/+27If anyone is interested in moving to Canada please feel free to send your resumes and business plans up North. I'll be looking for our southern counterparts in the pile of the monthly resumes that want to escape, in fact I'm goign to ask the HR folks to put the US resumes to the side.
I'm looking for lvl 1-2-3 Techies: MS and Linux folks at this time. Pluses, good with languages (human..french is a beni, spanish can learn french), have a specialty (networking, VM tech, CMS systems), can write an average install doc that is passed by peers and most important...can drink beer at lunch and go back to work not drunk or show up half in the bag.
Are there any Mexican techies that can help out??
If they won't be voted out, we'll just let the system die from the computers on down. - Hetman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+25I do not think people are ready for fight club. People do not want an end to there matarialistic life style. They just do not want all their freedoms taken away.
- BadassCheese, on 10/10/2007, -0/+25My, that's doubleplusgood! All hail BB!
- Napoleone, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24Veto? I'm not talking about legislation, I'm talking IMPEACHMENT.
- griz, on 10/10/2007, -2/+26"conceived entirely by the Executive Branch"
You mean to tell me that Cheney wasn't involved in this?? - omgitsfletch, on 10/10/2007, -0/+23If I could hold erections longer than 4 hours, of the people to know, the first certainly wouldn't be my DOCTOR.
- osbjmg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23You all laugh, but I know where he's coming from.
- insinuate, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20Chocolate Rain...some stay dry while others feel the pain.
- IADTatami, on 10/10/2007, -1/+21Peaceful protest is the only way. Vandalism would be portrayed as terrorism by the government and government-friendly media outlets, and most of the population would accept that interpretation.
Keep in mind that it's OK for terrorists- domestic or otherwise- to be detained without access to legal representation, transported overseas and tortured indefinitely. - Hetman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20Is it me or am I the only one who thinks Julia is one of the hottest characters in a political fiction ever. Well atleast before she gets brainwashed by big brother.
- hawkspur, on 10/10/2007, -2/+19It's absolutely mind-boggling to me at why anyone continues to support Bush. I liked the man when he was first elected, I voted for him. But how can anyone continue to support him when he's led us into an unprovoked war of aggression and everything else he's done?
Ignorance is bliss for some I suppose. - hawkspur, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18Terrorism has killed three thousand people in this country. Billions of dollars are spent "fighting" it. If the same amount of capital was put into curing cancer or any of the other terminal diseases they would be cured. Millions upon millions of people in this country die from causes like that, and only 3,000 on 9/11.
- sephiroth4, on 10/10/2007, -0/+16That's some ol *****! I'm here in TX, and I also just read that teachers are going to start getting fingerprinted as well as pay for it $50! If you don't, you get terminated! Please get Bush and Co. outta there along with the media rats! Kevin Rose for President?!
RON PAUL! - pintomp3, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17it's like when your parents took your toys away so you couldn't break them.
- MasterInsan0, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15Unfortunately, it is incredibly obvious that there is a fine line between "ensuring tragedies do not repeat themselves" and "taking advantage of tragedies to increase one's power", and that this line has been crossed.
- macgarp, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14I really don't want someone pooping in my food.
- DumDumDog, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15I i worked for a media company ...
the owner had never heard of 1984 - MistySteele, on 10/10/2007, -3/+17Although I'm supporting Ron Paul for the Republican Primaries, I've always had to admit he's a bit odd and out there. He's seeming alarmingly less so these days.
Digg readers - consider supporting him, if only to help him make a good showing in the primaries and keep attention on issues such as this. - ctrlfreak13, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15If you're implying that this is a creation of liberals, you are wrong, as stated in the article, it was created by the executive branch, i.e. Pres. Bush, whom I hope you don't think to be a liberal.
Oh yea, and liberals actually do care about privacy - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -7/+20***** IT'S ALMOST 1984
- fantasticFlan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13Suppose, for much longer than a second, that 9/11 and things like it could be prevented through conventional methods without infringing on our rights.
- DaSuHouSe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13Right because the Daily Kos article doesn't cite any sources.. /sarcasm
- IADTatami, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13They hope it will blow over. I hope so too.
I'm afraid that it won't. - hagbard72, on 10/10/2007, -6/+19Sucks to be you (American, that is).
- oneangrypossum, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12Fight Club was a satire of the materialistic consumer that the Narrator was at first and the completely short-sighted and foolish hypocrisy that was Tyler Durden's idealistic system. A revolutionary group promoting to lead people away from mindless consumerism had better have an alternative better than mindless destruction and blind followers.
- coyote1284, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13I am Jack's general disdain with the political party system, running-mates, and electoral college.
- coyote1284, on 10/10/2007, -6/+18America! ***** Yeah!
- spucky, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Have you ever said anything intelligent? You are the same person as "vvhy" who is the same person as the o0...0o who has been banned more than 40 time. Just because this moron changed his name does not change the fact that this is a disgusting piece of crap.
You get banned for saying "***** are stupid" and then you get a new account does not mean that I give you more leeway. You are still the piece of ***** from your old account. And I will track you, you disgusting piece of *****. Every time you come on to Digg I will report you. -
