Besides, it's free advertising.

But, would the owners of Collarme want the publicity? I think not! I think --like me, they hope it fades away as soon as posible, so more unfriendly as'les don't get the site address and start looking for people to screw up!

Its hardly a smear campaign when the guy said "Id never post an ad saying im a heterosexual who likes women' Uh yeah you did asshole. And you like to whip them too. Not gonna write an amendment to ban that now are you.


I hardly see this as bad for collarme though, unless you think a lot more hypocrites from the religious wing of the gop joining collarme is bad.

That's so [uncharacteristically] optimistic of you, A.L.! :)

Problem is, you can't unpublicize something. Once you're outed, you're outed - and you have to deal with the consequences.

Some people can flaunt it like a rockstar, but most just get strange cold looks, and are left wondering why they were suddenly refused promotion with no explanation.
If you're working with kids, as a daycare provider or gradeschool teacher? You're pretty fucked.

So I don't know who I'm more upset at - him and those like him for being small-minded hypocritical twits, or the Dems for resorting to tactics like this.

kitten.
You need to read the history. The Dems did this AFTER this hypocrit tried to impugn the service fo Col. Hackett. Your memory is short...they used the same "Swift Boat" group that went after John Kerry.

Status: offline 		I did read the history and I dont see any organised nor official representative of the democratic party having anything to do with this. the guy said some stuff and was outed by some pissed off people and or bloggers. insult people on the internet expect to get burned by the internet. Where does it say the democratic party had anything to do with pulling the profile public? The guy writing from daily Kos is just some guy who hates hypocrites unles I missed a paragraph.

Status: offline 		Jerry - Sure, politicos pull this tawdry stuff all the time. Does that make it okay to stoop to conquer? I'd rather see candidates win on their merits than on their competition's flaws. Idealistic, sure; unrealistic, perhaps; but worth aspiring to.

Good point, AL. Although the nonexistence of visible links doesn't mean there are no links.... the larger point I guess is that a party's only as good as the people who comprise it.

No, you just have to use a little common sense. Instead of forwarding email, create a new, secure account in which to recieve your emails. There are a LOT of ways around being found out if you don't want to be. Or, you could just not be a politician, too...lol.

Status: offline 		that idea may work if you only use this nick for Collarme ...but what about those that have had their "nick" for a long time .... now a days you just have to "google" a name and it comes up ...i did my own and i was surprised to see what i have said (which i thought was kept here) and profiles from "other" sites ... so maybe Collarme should look into that, how to keep the postings here and not going out into the www?

Status: offline 		I suggested that sometime ago when I discovered the same thing. A simple robots.txt file can control what is crawled by search engines.

As a result I've take my face of my picture for obvious reasons, thats something I can disclose privately if need be.
