Fake rethug dirty little secrets

[paineinthearse]

There is a new website where you can post your little secrets annonymously. Wouldn't it be fun to post some of Jeff "Gannon" Guckert's? Or Karl Rove's? Or Ken Mehlman's? Or Condaleeza Rice's? Or GW Bush's? Or ???

You get the idea.

Remember, you cannot post an identity, so readers of the "secret" need to be able to ascertain who the poster is.

Example: "I really like Thursdays, that's when the local humane society gets in fresh shipments of puppies. I particularly enjoy the little ones. Yummmm!!!!"



Post your secrets here. You're on your own if you want to post to PostSecret.com.

Little secrets online

Thu Feb 10, 1:57 PM ET Offbeat - AFP


WASHINGTON (AFP) - An ancient secret to unburden? A postcard, a stamp, and any private torment or personal shame can be confided anonymously to the world via an artist's website which has become a new hit of the Internet. Launched two months ago as an art project, the website PostSecret.com has received already more than 200 edgy, graphic, witty and sad secrets, all submitted namelessly on simple postcards.

"I want to have sex with my therapist," said one, accompanied by a drawing of a couple on the psychiatrist's couch. "My boyfriend and my family thought I quit smoking two years ago. I didn't (and still smoke)," said another, signed "Closet Smoker". "I say I'm a vegetarian. But I eat meat on the sly!" said a third, with a sketch of a steak and steak knife as evidence.

The website was created by artist Frank Warren of Germantown, Maryland, just north of Washington. He launched the project by passing out postcards soliciting secrets at art shows. The result, Warren said, gave him a voyeur-like thrill. "At the beginning of the project, it was fascinating to see the secrets that were arriving in my mailbox daily. Each new card offered a peek into a strangers most private moments," he said.

Many of the confessions are indeed very private and graphic, and come with artful drawings and collages. One contributor admitted: "When I was young, I drilled a hole in my closet wall and peed in it because I was mad at my parents. The closet smelled for years. I blamed our cat." Another, mailed from Australia, confided that she was still a virgin but dared not tell her friends. "Some of the people mailing in secrets seem to be searching for absolution. They want to lighten their burden," Warren surmised.

3. Very interesting thought

You are absolutely right. Read the privacy statements at the White House and other rethugs sites. They capture your IP address and other personal information.

Now we have this new "service" where people are posting their innermost secrets......
