Still thinking about election fraud in Ohio? Worried that voting machines in Florida may have been hacked? If some Republicans get their way, there may soon be an official diagnosis of what really ails you: political paranoia disorder.

"Political Paranoia" to be included in next edition of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

This is worrisome... Very Soviet Russia IMHO...

1. Yeah... because it's satire!

5. I don't think they heard you,

maybe you'll have to say it louder.

2. Woo hoo! Psychotropic drugs for all my liberal friends!!

3. i'm sorry...

this is freaking bullshit.

I resent being called a loony leftist for actually WITNESSING video footage and hearing accounts from regular Ohioans who were denied their right to vote.

Now it is being loony for believing they were disenfranchished, despite 4-10 hour voting lines.

What's the email to this publication...I want to send an email. Let's organize a protest campaign through emails.

If we don't stop this loony lefty talk now...it will spread.

6. oh...satire?

I didn't really get it...

You'd think being honed on The Onion would train me better....

OOPs...DUH....

4. this tactic reminds me of that scene in 1984 -

the one where Winston Smith is asked over and over "how many fingers"

on edit: oops. that'll teach me to not comment before i go and read the actual link.

7. Would probably be a good idea to include (SATIRE)

in the subject line.

Keeps things at a simmer instead of a boil.

I already saw this today in another thread, so I knew it was a joke going in.

8. Hmmm... this is sooooo Victorian England.

Imprison, or have your opposition declared insane, arrest them for
drugs, take away their votes, do anything to block the voices of the
people..... republicans are suuuch tories.

People with pathological hatred problems, are the mentally ill. Deal
with it bush. People that empower a culture to on an imperial
crusade of cynical hatred and fear. Repeated like a one string
guitar across history... how tiresome.
