You don't know my real name...
I am going to ANNOY you by quoting the ANNOYING Bill of Rights:

"Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech."

Oh, My God! I broke the law! I broke the law by ANNOYING you by pointing out the fact that the law is made ANNOYINGLY unconstitutional by that ANNOYING Bill of Rights which I just ANNOYED you with by quoting without my real name the Bill of Rights to point out that it is unconstitutional to tell someone that they can't annoy you. (Isn't that ANNOYING?)

11. Yup.:
"Congress shall make no law... abridging the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

7. Well, I'm sorry to have to say this
But you're never going to annoy me while I'm able to look at that cartoon in your sig of Junior riding around on his rockin' horse screaming for his "Uncle Dick."

Not gonna happen.

9. I know, txindy!
But give Oliphant credit where credit is due. The Bush admin has given him some of his best (and meanest) work of his career. And he just turned 70!

14. Oh, I do love Oliphant!
Just that one picture you've got there is priceless.

I tell you what, you take away that cartoon and I will be HIGHLY annoyed!

:rofl:

15. I hope one day to remove it as celebration.
That Dick and * will be made irrelevant, if not imprisoned.

13. You want annoying?
Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

:evilgrin:

18. so did anyone actually look at the law before posting
I seriously doubt it. As has been pointed out numerous times this oh so terrible law is actually no big deal. Unless of course you think that John Conyers and Barney Frank (along with well over 100 other Democratic Senators and Congressmen who signed on as sponsors of the bill) are actually plotting with chimpy to put us all in chains. Aided and abetted, of course, by the ACLU, which sent a letter to Congress strongly endorsing the legislation.

Chill.

20. Law:
Edited on Fri Jan-13-06 12:45 AM by Hissyspit
"Whoever...utilizes any device or software that can be used to originate telecommunications or other types of communications that are transmitted, in whole or in part, by the Internet... without disclosing his identity and with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person...who receives the communications...shall be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than two years, or both."

Vague.
Unconstitutional.

CRAPPY LAW.

Crappy law is a big deal.

Anyway, I think the facetiousness of the post is evident enough. I'm properly chilled.

21. purpose of law
To extend existing provisions about telephone harassment (eg. anonymous calls with intent to annoy, etc). to cover VOiP. Is it well drafted? No. Will it be used willy-nilly. Unlikely.
