1. Yeah if you looked at my Facebook page.

If you listened to my band, no.

2. After the guilty plea, I doubt there'd be any debate. n/t

[geek tragedy]

3. If the jury is representative of the US voters, the evidence wood be overwhelming.

If it's a jury of 12 DUers, they take 5 minutes to acquit.

9. Sigh

I know how you feel.

[Eleanors38]

12. Thinking the same thing. nt

15. To be considered liberal by the first jury you only have to support abortion and one or two other

'liberal' issues. It's a good cover for right wingers who really don't care much one way or the other about those issues. Most Republicans I know do support abortion since most of them have had one. Few oppose Gay Marriage and many of them are atheists. On almost everything else they are Conservatives.

DUers naturally can distinguish liberals from third wayers being that they are more informed about these things. So it's likely you are correct in your assessment.

To answer the poll, yes, I would be convicted and proud of it.

4. Secret fantasy life of woodchucks?

[JI7]

[tblue]

7. A post. Here on DU. Sufficient cause for further investigation.......

Now do we look at Call origination, termination and duration next or do we look at internet traffic?
Na, let's take the long way home. Let's go by zip code.
OK, on to voter registration.
Independent.
Do we do internet usage now?
Naw, let's make it interesting, Google Street.
Only house on the block not having a Romney/Ryan Sign.
Not good enough.
Do we do internet usage now?
Ya, I give up, internet usage otherwise I'd have to go through all the other data bases we could look into and this would be a very long append.
And even if we did that it would have been over in less time than it took me to type this.

8. I sure hope so.

[lpbk2713]

10. Some who know me would be happy to see a conviction.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

11. A simple Google search -

would bring up enough evidence to convict me 100 times over. And I am damned proud of it. I worked hard for my FBI file.

[LostOne4Ever]

13. Damn ACLU card

Gets me in trouble every time

[Fire Walk With Me]

14. As an Occupier, I'm pretty sure that "liberals" are far to my right on the political spectrum.

I mean, are they all over this, demanding the government change it?

Meet the Contractors Turning America's Police Into a Paramilitary Force

"The national security state has an annual budget of around $1 trillion. Of that huge pile of money, large amounts go to private companies the federal government awards contracts to. Some, like Lockheed Martin or Boeing, are household names, but many of the contractors fly just under the public's radar. What follows are three companies you should know about (because some of them can learn a lot about you with their spy technologies)."

Or against the NSA destruction of the 4th Amendment? Or the domestic terrorism used against the Occupy movement for more than a year? Or against the plutonomists who are running the country and economy?

I'd love to love liberals, but they appear to be falling all over themselves to forgive this administration for all the above, plus anything else that it does wrong. I doubt they are even aware of how far to the political right all of this puts them. Forgiving the destruction of the 1st and 4th Amendments because a democrat did it...

16. Scary question to pose after

all the imaginable repercussions there could be from our country's secretive data collection on all of us.

Guilty as charged though.

[LeftofObama]

17. Yes, especially when I take the stand and admit it.

No shame in my game!

18. funny, way back about 1971 - I remember someone saying that at a Bible study except it was

If you were on trial for being a Christian would there be enough evidence to convict?

I'm afraid the Internet records would show that I am more than just a liberal. So yes, there would be more than enough evidence to convict me.
