So if I make a post to another member who does not live in the USA
can George Bush have me investigated?

1. You're under investigation right now just for mentioning it.
And for the fact that you are posting it here, the very headquarters on the War on Christmas.

4. I don't think there's much doubt that DU is monitored
After all, we are some of the last few freethinking Americans left.

22. Hasn't this been going on for a decade?
Isn't it true that certain words get registered with NSA if they are used in international phone calls as well as e-mails? Remember before 9-11 there was a day where people sent e-mails with those words to overwhelm NSA computers?

You think international and domestic communications are treated differently anymore?

3. Also, maybe du should ban all international members.
I am being sarcastic.

But this is a lesson for one and all how this can harm innocent citizens.

6. You know, I've wondered that myself.

I have tried to visit a chat room in Lebanon. (Unfortunately, there is never anyone chatting!) Nonetheless, could I be a suspect now? (I do rather doubt it, but don't trust the judgement of these guys at all!)

11. That would make it even worse. The home of John Kerry. His nemesis
to this day.

Bush is still campaigning against him.
