Unemployed Republican Terrorist who lived with Mom Arrested by Joint Terrorism Task Force

[morgan2]

I really can't get enough of this story, its ashame the media will never refer to him as what he is, I think we should be all mindful to reference him as The Republican Terrorist Chad Castagana.

discuss amongst yourselfs..

1. now... you are getting cute and having just TOO much fun

lol lol

[morgan2]

3. Its the truth and you know if someone who donated to moveon

or something similar commited a crime like this, every Republican would be calling him a moveon member any time they brought him up. This guy was a daily poster and the largest Republican message board on the internet.

6. hear ya dude, you just play. i am too. i am pissed myself

i ad too many angry reactions by males about the stickers on my car last week i felt unsafe and took them off. i am not too thrilled with these people right now, myself

[Coexist]

4. I know - this is such a guilty pleasure

:)

[seabeyond]

10. gigglin.... yup. just reinforce what

we know to be true

[malaise]

2. It's a great November story less than a

week after Freepers were SCREWN. Truthfully, I'm loving it.:toast: Great work :yourock: :yourock:

[gully]

5. The stars are aligned in our favor, that's for sure.

I'm thinkin' divine intervention or something?

[malaise]

9. No just the hard work of

Deems in the field. Re 'hanging Chad', truth will out. They hate all views but their own.

[Beelzebud]

7. The only domestic terrorists are right-wingers. a.k.a. Republicans

abortion clinic bombers - Republican
Tim McVeigh - Republican
Anthrax attacks based on liberal targets - Republican

[Jack from Charlotte]

13. Shouldn't R.I.C.O Laws apply to Rethug Party? Afterall,........

those you mentioned above plus Ney, Cunningham and Delay.... They commit more crime than The Mafia.

[morgan2]

14. ya I've been saying one day the Republican party will

go down to RICO. Its inevitable, a party that dedicated to big business in a government that is so corruptable.

[Phredicles]

8. For those of us keeping score at home,

How many DUers have been arrested for terrorist activites? (Way fewer, I'm guessing):P

[Hav]

11. .

Lol really? He was 39 and still lived with his mommy?

[hootinholler]

19. Yeah, he moved back after

His van got a parking ticket down by the river.

-Hoot

[Tinksrival]

21. HHHHAAAA HHHAAA !!!!

You're a HOOT! No really! :rofl:

[bleedingheart]

20. hey don't be mean...there are nice people who live with their parents

in fact I am trying to convince my mother to move in with me...she is getting too old to take care of herself...and having a child take care of her is better than some of the retiree places..

[seabeyond]

22. you are right. lots of olders live with parent and a lot of times is good

EXCEPT this one..... only one we get to laugh out, ..... ever...... unless it happens again

i agree with you totally

[NorthernSpy]

28. it's just that the conservatives are always screeching about "personal responsibility"...

... and the need to "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" and claiming themselves to be the "hard-working taxpayers" that all persons poorer and/or less white are supposedly living off of.

:eyes:

On the Left, we understand that some people will have problems and will need help -- whether from their families, or society, or both. We're humane about that, and we want to help such people lead the best lives they can. It's the Right that endlessly heaps scorn and hatred upon those who, for whatever reason, can't seem to get their lives together.

If this guy hadn't insisted upon stewing himself in the toxic culture of the far Right, would he have felt compelled to act out like this?

[bleedingheart]

32. what you described is my neighbor

she is in her 40's, lives with her parents...but doesn't do much around the house to help.
She basically spends her entire paycheck entertaining herself but votes Republican and doesn't like to see anyone else get help ...or as she calls them.."handouts"..

[Dhalgren]

12. I wonder how many of his Freep brethren he will roll on to the Feds?

You know there is consternation in parents' basements all over Freepland. :rofl:

[Webster Green]

15. Jeezus, freepers really do operate out of mom's basement...

:rofl:

[lpbk2713]

16. I know someone like this .... still living with Mommy.

His paranoia makes him prime RW fodder. It never seems to occur to him that HE is the oddball. Always has an opinion on how the rest of the world is out of step with his own personal parade.


Some times he's really hard to take because one never knows when he's off his meds.
It takes a lot of patience to ignore someone like this. Damn shame.

[seabeyond]

24. i see it already. a couple hours of laughing at someone now we will be the

dem that we are.... loll lol. and be kind and not tease the pathetic, sad or hardship.... cause we are just that nice. breathe out

first time i have been being mean in a long time. three posts consistant to yours and you are getting me right there

[K8-EEE]

17. THIS IS HUGH!!!!!! I'M SERIES!!!

OMG THIS IS SOOOOO FUNNY!! I'm only surprised it wasn't Doug From Upland, total freeper psychopath if ever there was one and WAY too much time on his hands...he's the one who writes they "lyrics."

[LibertyorDeath]

18. Part of a Freeper sleeper cell....

no doubt... :)

[morgan2]

23. you gotta watch out for the freeper sleeper cells

they hate communists almost as much as the hitler youth, and their idea of communism is paying taxes.

[Tyo]

27. That's right!

Vigilance in the face of the Freeper threat. Otherwise we're screwn.

[alarimer]

25. How much do you want to bet that he will not end up in Gitmo?

No this guy will not be treated as a terrorist by this hypocritical administration.

Not that I want him in Gitmo necessarily and I also want him to have all the rights that any criminal defendent should have. But it will be interesting to see if he will be treated as Jose Padilla was treated.

[KansDem]

26. NOW WAIT just a minute here!

Castagana, of Los Angeles, was being held in a federal detention center pending an initial court appearance Monday, when prosecutors were expected to file charges.

Authorities claim he mailed threatening letters to Pelosi, Letterman, New York Sen. Charles Schumer, Jon Stewart of Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" and MSNBC host Keith Olbermann.

Thom Mrozek, spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's office, said he did not believe Castagana had retained a lawyer but he wasn't certain. If Castagana hasn't, a public defender will be appointed prior to his Monday court appearance.

Bewilderment No. 1--Why hasn't this terrorist been whisked off to GitMo or some secret prison to be tortured?

Bewilderment No. 2--Why a court appearance? I thought we got rid of habeas corpus?

Bewilderment No. 3--Why does he get an attorney. I thought the "Torture is O.K. Bill" got rid of that quaint notion!

Needless to say, fellow DUers, I...I...I'm bewildered! :crazy:

[Chulanowa]

33. Not brown and not muslim, so not a turrist

[KansDem]

35. Oh, o.k...gotcha!

I knew there had to be a reason.

[warrens]

29. KO will be talking about him, no doubt

I just posted some of his drivel. IN one, he claims KO mailed it to himself to get sympathy.

[survivor999]

30. And...... He was a LONER!

Don't forget that.

[morgan2]

31. And... He was incontinent and infertile

[Phrogman]

34. George Carlin has a routine about guys with names like "Chad"

its a riot.
