Am I in any trouble?

[muffin1]

Last night, in a drunken stupor, I wrote a very short email to Hannity about his smearing of Senator Obama. It was about three sentences long, and I dropped the "F-bomb" twice. To make matters (possibly) worse, I wrote from a place where I am house-sitting. I used my husband's work email address, as my husband and I don't use email at home ( we live WAY out in the country and only have dial-up).
I'm sure these morans must get thousands of angry email a week, at least. I just woke up this morning feeling a little paranoid - not to mention hung over. Can anyone help ease my frazzled nerves?:hangover:

1. If YOU could get in trouble, then the jails would be full of right-wing "morans"

Ever seen the hate mail bag here? Ever heard Al Frankin read his when he had the radio show ("k--e"was a favorite word in that case.)

[muffin1]

7. I have seen the hate letters to DU.

They are beyond disgusting, and I actually though about those this morning to assuage my paranoia. But then, we progressives tend to be a forgiving lot. Thanks for the input!:)

2. If the SS aren't pounding on your door right now,

I wouldn't worry.

[muffin1]

21. So far, so good!

:hi:

[Breeze54]

3. That's the only kind of e-mail they get!

:rofl:

Yours is one among thousands, I'm sure! :P

Fear not! Just have some :donut: and relax. It's a beautiful autumn day today! ;)

[muffin1]

9. Thanks, Breeze54

I'm feeling a little better already.:hi:

4. You are not in trouble over any email to Hannity beyond needing a shower :-)

:-)

5. A Yahoo email account takes about 2 minutes to register for

I have no idea if you're in trouble or not, I guess it depends on where your husband works.

[havocmom]

19. Yep. Doin it from someone's work account could get THEM in trouble

Don't send nasty-grams from someone's work email- EVER. Doin it drunk... I would guess she is in trouble with her husband.

Anybody who would do that involving MY work email would be facing the wrath of the mother of all havoc.

There are LOTS of quick, easy places to get a free email account. Takes no time at all. Isn't difficult. No excuse to use a work account to blow off steam while drinking.

6. Set up a free email account on yahoo or hotmail for those things

I doubt you are in trouble, but it is definitely not cool to use hubby's work email account for those kind of letters.

[muffin1]

13. I know, you're right. I'll never do it again, obviously!

I told hubby this morning. He wasn't overly pleased, but didn't seem to upset. I told him to blame it on me if any trouble comes his way. He works for a museum organization, and they are pretty liberal for the most part, so here's hoping...

8. When you say you used your husbands email

Do you mean you just included it as the return address or that you actually used his company computer and emailed it from his office? If so then they may be able to contact his boss and demand that action be taken (whether it is or not is another matter).

But from a legal standpoint they have nothing on you. And it is unlikely that any action will be taken on your husband.

[muffin1]

11. I just used his address.

I was so smashed...I should have just made up an address, or better still, waited until I was sober to write...

[Az]

17. Then it should not be a problem

As long as you didn't use his office equipment then they have no claim over him.

[Maribelle]

10. I would say you're in BIG trouble ...

if you didn't byob to the place you were house-sitting

[Toots]

12. Let's hope you didn't say anything that could be construed as a threat.

If you didn't do that then there should be nothing to worry about except for using your husbands work e-mail account. I have read here that freepers sometimes launch an assault on the employer when they find e-mails coming from a work site..

[muffin1]

15. Absolutely nothing threatening.

I basically asked "Where the fuck is your pin?", and called him a fucking hypocrite.:D

[durrrty libby]

20. Here's the cure: Don't listen to Hannity

I'm quite sure I would have to be smashed in order to listen to him.

[spanone]

14. the thought police are waiting outside your door...

:party:

[Rene]

16. Are you TRYING to get your husband fired !!! Fool !!!

[rox63]

18. I'm sure Hannity gets lots of profanity-laced emails

He probably won't even notice yours out of the other million or so f-bombs that grace his mailbox daily.

[mcscajun]

No trouble. Just sign up for a free e-mail account someplace, and stop watching Hannity.

Your nerves will thank you. :hug:

[muffin1]

25. We'll do.

I hate watching those fools, but sometimes I just gotta know what kind of trash they're putting out there, you know?
But you're right, I never end up feeling anything but pissed off.:hug:

[Snarkturian Clone]

22. He'll just throw it on the pile NT

[Hepburn]

23. Unless you threatened harm....

...IMO, you are OK. Name calling is not out of line...at least so far...in the USA.

[Richard Steele]

24. The only real way you might be "in trouble"...

...is if the homeowners have a problem with you
being drunk while house-sitting.

Hannity gets a hundred worse eMails a day.

-EVERY- day.

[muffin1]

26. Thankfully, they know I'm a party girl...

and they are very attuned to my political beliefs. I've known them for nearly 20 years. Great folks!

[Strelnikov_]

27. "Muffin1's going to get in big trouble, . .

because we're not gonna play around. When you email us, ladies and gentlemen, just so you know, we do have your address. And if you say anything untoward, obscene, or anything like that, Fox security then will contact your local authorities, and you will be held accountable. Fair?"

[muffin1]

29. AND balanced!

Maybe KO will have some tips for when Hannity's producers come to my door?:D

[leftist_not_liberal]

28. What's the problem?

How dare you exercise your right to speak?

I've dropped the F-bomb in an ad hominem way while stone-cold sober in an email to [email protected]

Fuck being afraid.

"it is very likely somebody from the presidential clan will kill me... Every morning when I wake up, I think there are three beds I could end up in tonight. Back here at home, the hospital, or the morgue." But he says: "I will not be afraid. It is when you are afraid that you lose."

30. You go, leftist_not_liberal!

You have a quite a set of nads! What can I say...America has become a scary place. A place where a person can be taken away and never heard from again. Kudos to you for not giving in to that fear!
By the way, welcome to DU!:hi:

[lonestarnot]

31. Heh. That Fox Security... a force to be reckoned with, dead reckoning now!

Run! :rofl:

[muffin1]

32. I'm stockpiling

loofahs as we speak!B-)

[lonestarnot]

35. Fixed snooze... Heh.

:spray: :rofl:

[blondeatlast]

33. Agent Mike's in a good mood, so is just passing your e-mail around to the

crew and laughing hysterically.

It's a pretty slow morning, anyway.

[muffin1]

34. LOL!

Actually, I'm feeling a lot more sane as the day wears on. Shit happens, right?:P

[blondeatlast]

36. Believe me, I know!

:hi: backatcha!
