Anyone know for a fact if there are any famous DUers? |
|
Without mentioning any handles, of course. It would be pretty cool to think there were some legislators that participated on the board or other personalities.

they'll probably be careful about letting their names get attached to a web site. But you know they're among us!

25. C'mon, Jenna, admit it..... |

We keep trying to get her to come out. It's more entertaining than 10 Random Questions.....
In all seriousness (trying hard not to snicker) there's a persistent legend which may or may not be based in anything resembling fact, that Jenna is, indeed, a regular poster and reader. Strange, eh?

jenna bush. not sure why that made me laugh. she could be here as well as any other. i guess just the image of a bush family member posting and checking replies among us. that's pleasantly funny.

7. I ran for state office in 2000 and got 8% of the vote. |
|
My critics called me a loser, but I was one of five candidates, one of whom spent more money than all the other challengers combined, and he was in turn dwarfed by the corrupt incumbent. Oh, yes - the media were very careful not to mention my name.
If I run again this year, I'll make George W. Asshole an issue - and I'm not known for mincing words.
Could that make me famous? Or would I just be a repeat loser who gets 15% of the vote? And if Bush steals the White House again, does it matter?

32. Candidate for President John Buchanan is a DUer! |
|
He is in NH for the primary running as the TRUTH candidate (on 9-11 and Iraq). Running as a Repug.
I myself have been on the History channel and been interviewed by CNN and have a very well known grandfather - but I ain't there yet.
Hopefully when my book comes out I will get famous though (about my father's work with the French and Jewish underground in WWII smuggling antiNazis and Jews to freedomin American)
I have been afraid to post under my own name for fear of the freeps and the BFEE.
But I will soon come out and tell you who my grandpa was.
And my father.
I even met Larry King once when I was invited to speak at his community service on the Day of Atonement. And Elie Wiesel kissed my 12 year old daughter on the forehead when he found out who she was (my Dad helped save a lot of folks which is why I got on the Hisotry channel for my research on the story).
Blah blah blah.
Maybe somebody would like to hear the story some day.
I will say one thing: Having met some of the great heroes of the underground and resistance I can tell you that things in the US look very much like 1933 Germany.

John Loftus once told me that (with respect to outing the Bushes' ties to the Nazis) fame brings security. Of course John Loftus appears now regularly on talk shows and has his own show and even sold his story to Jon Voight.
Bt I think unless one can provide their own security it is hard to "come out" at a place like this.
I admire Will Pitt for his courage in being out there. But the fact that his dad is a bigwig in the dem party and a former Clinton Assistant Attorney General gives him a little more protection.
PS I think Dr. Funkenstein is Chris Heinz. But I am only guessing based on his posting style and the grooviness and funkadelia of his name: it fits his profile.

He was in charge of the unit that debugged the assembler code in the computer controls systems of the industrial machinery used in about 1/3 of the chemical industry.
He'd joke and say if he lost it he could cause 50-60 simultaneous Bhopals.
I can joke about it because he's doing other things now.
