3. FWIW, ChiciB1, the sedition

report was brought to DU's attention last week, I think. Doesn't make it any less distressing...

5. OOOPS... Guess I'm Behind The Eight Ball Again!

It's The first I've heard of it. There are times I'm at DU everyday, then times when situations make it impossible!

Thank you anyway!

I'm also a little out of the loop about Duckworth and all the hub-bub!

8. Accused by whom?

Edited on Thu Mar-02-06 12:20 PM by TechBear_Seattle

If she has been accused by a-holes in the press or nitwit twits like Coulter or O`Lielly, so what? She is in very fine company.

If she has been accused in court and a grand jury is looking over the evidence... that is a different matter entirely.

9. The F.B.I.

They took her computer and examined it because they said it was government property. She got her computer back, but they had examined her hard drive, even though she had written the letter from her home.

ACLU is now representing her. She is now fearful because she's talking out about it! She said many of her co-workers supported her, but I guess they aren't as brave as she is.

I don't think she's lost her job yet, but also said that she felt it was going to be a big mistake because she feels she has a lot to offer as a nurse and is very dedicated.

11. Yeah, that sounds like "a different matter entirely."

Can you say, "witch hunt"? Sounds like I wasn't too far off with this post: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=555090&mesg_id=555090

14. Some hotshoe FBI drone better study

on what the meaning of sedition is exactly. Freedom of speech is being attacked every day in this fouled up country.

13. Even if she is accused in a grand jury using evidence the question........

....remains is it a stacked grand jury and exactly whoes brand of evidence is being used? I don't even trust our courts anymore because anyone can be charged and/or convicted of anything. The term "conspiracy to......" can cover a whole lot of ground.

10. I happened upon a VHS tape of Clinton's 1993 inauguration

and the "aftermath" . . . one (of course) blonde bimb was quoted -

"I don't know what I'm going to do . . . maybe I'll move to another country . . ."

Wonder why that vid was never constantly rebroadcast . . . at least that was the actual person saying it, not just a spouse/girlfriend claiming that maybe her husband/boyfriend might consider that option (Baldwin) . . .

12. I thought the story sounded familiar: Link

This was mentioned at DU a few weeks ago. It would be nice to see some coverage from the MSM (yeah, and it would be nice to get presents from Santa, too, but I ain't holding my breath.)
