Barack Hussein’s new Homeland Security Director says that Americans should be afraid that our returning combat veterans will be recruited by right-wing groups and use the 2nd Amendment rights they fought to protect to attack against the country.
I never thought I would hear such a profound level of mistrust and hostility directed at our greatest and noblest citizens. But that’s how this administration rolls.
Of course, Obama already has always thought dimly about those Americans (in the below case Pennsylvanians) who refused to support him:
“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
The second page of the Obama DHS’s 9-page report has a definition of “rightwing extremism” that is frankly terrifying:
Rightwing extremism in the United States can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and
adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups),
and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration.
Great googly-moogly! I just found out I was a “rightwing extremist.” And if the government says it, it has to be true. I believe in limited federal government. I believe that “the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” And I am opposed to BOTH abortion and illegal immigration.
Our founding fathers who wrote our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution, and our Federalist papers began their political careers being defined as traitors. Now they get to return to that status under Barack Obama.
The very top of the second page of the report offers this disclaimer:
The DHS/Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) has no specific information that domestic rightwing* terrorists are currently planning acts of violence, but rightwing extremists may be gaining new recruits by playing on their fears about several emergent issues. The economic downturn and the election of the first African American president present unique drivers for rightwing radicalization and recruitment.
Of course, there is no specific information that monkeys will fly out of my butt, but the government should massively crack down just in case.
And, of course, being “right-wing” is clearly tantamount to being “racist.” Just ask the president who campaigned promising to unite the country.
No actual proof of any of it, but shouldn’t the charge itself be sufficient to condemn in this brave new world of “hope” and “change”?
Well, at least al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden are off the hook. Obama apparently stopped using the term “terrorists” and “war on terror” against Islamists so he could apply the terms to conservatives instead.
Ed Morissey offered this on HotAir.com:
Michelle has it covered pretty well, but I looked at the DHS report on “right-wing extremism” myself, and it’s every bit as bad as she says, and as Roger Hedgecock and the Liberty Papers first reported. The DHS fails to provide any specifics at all, preferring instead to smear half of the country or more as kooks for criticizing the government’s handling of the economy. As Eli Lake reports, the DHS has all but declared war on federalism, which used to be the founding concept of our republic:
The Department of Homeland Security is warning law enforcement officials about a rise in “rightwing extremist activity,” saying the economic recession, the election of America’s first black president and the return of a few disgruntled war veterans could swell the ranks of white-power militias.
A footnote attached to the report by the Homeland Security Office of Intelligence and Analysis defines “rightwing extremism in the United States” as including not just racist or hate groups, but also groups that reject federal authority in favor of state or local authority.
“It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single-issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration,” the warning says.
The first question we should ask is whether the DHS is reacting to any specific threats at all? Er … no (emphasis mine):
The DHS/Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) has no specific information that domestic rightwing* terrorists are currently planning acts of violence, but rightwing extremists may be gaining new recruits by playing on their fears about several emergent issues.
This gets repeated over and over again during the report. They have no threat information. In fact, the report can’t even say definitively whether “extremists” are gaining “new recruits”. In order to find that, they’d have to identify the actual groups, note the recruiting patterns, and determine whether in fact they’re gaining recruits or losing members. Bottom line: DHS has no actual data. They’re pulling threats out of their collective arse and publishing them without any supporting research whatsoever.
DHS acts as though white-supremacist groups and militias believing in Zionist world conspiracies stopped existing between 2000 and 2008. Of course they didn’t; George Bush’s strong support for Israel fed those nutcase groups for eight years. Are those groups growing in the last five months, after what DHS assumes is the trigger for all this hate — the election of Barack Obama? They provide absolutely no evidence at all for it, and in fact repeat over and over again that they don’t have that data in a hail of May Bes.
So what’s triggered their antennae?
The current economic and political climate has some similarities to the 1990s when rightwing extremism experienced a resurgence fueled largely by an economic recession, criticism about the outsourcing of jobs, and the perceived threat to U.S. power and sovereignty by other foreign powers.
In the first place, the “outsourcing of jobs” outrage didn’t get stoked by the Right. That outrage got fed by the Democrats in the last two elections, and it’s a feature of the same anti-globalization loons of the hard Left that continually disrupt G-20 summits as they violently did in London. Barack Obama himself stoked a fair share of it during the presidential campaign with his NAFTA Dance.
And should we not have some concern about the economic recession, debate about trade policy, and insist on maintaining American power and sovereignty? Since when did those topics indicate criminality and terrorism?
DHS also manages to make several hysterical references to returning veterans. I’ll highlight the weasel words and provide the translation at the end:
The possible passage of new restrictions on firearms and the return of military veterans facing significant challenges reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying out violent attacks.
Gee, it could lead? What evidence does DHS have of this? Oh, yeah, Timothy McVeigh was a veteran … and that’s it. I’m not joking:
After Operation Desert Shield/Storm in 1990-1991, some returning military veterans—including Timothy McVeigh—joined or associated with rightwing extremist groups.
So let’s be terrified of veterans! Let’s treat them all like potential suspects, even though we don’t have one iota of evidence of any wrongdoing at all. Yeah, that’s the American way.
Imagine, if you will, what the Left would say if we took this entire document and replaced all references to “military veterans” with “Muslims”, and all references to “abortion” with “universal health care”, and then predated this DHS report to 2008, during the Bush administration. They’d be screaming about being smeared as traitors for their political beliefs, and they’d be right to do so. That’s exactly what the Obama administration and Janet Napolitano has done here.
This is a disgrace. Congress should demand Napolitano’s resignation immediately, and the White House should apologize for this attack on normal political dissent.
This is flat-out fascist. It is naked demagoguery specifically intended to label for demonization those Americans who harbor conservative or even merely traditional sentiments.

Wingnut.
April 14, 2009 at 5:16 pm
I made a few friends myself today just mentioning this. Lumping together disgruntled military and white supremacists is just insanity. Excellent post !!! Bravo Mr. Eden, you wingnut!
April 14, 2009 at 6:47 pm
Get over yourself. The same has been said about left wing groups and if you think neither side has extremists you need to step back from your emotions. And lets not forget which side of the fence the administration who created such entities as DHS sat on.
April 15, 2009 at 8:56 am
The true domestic terrorists are Obama and his Democrat parasites, who are running this country into the ground with their socialist agenda and sophomoric enconomic policies. It is clear not of these yellow bellied thugs ever took a course in Econonmics. Democrats are only good at one thing.
Extortion.
It’s time to vote these vermin out of office in 2010, thus providing on check on Obama’s quest for absolute power and CONtrol.
April 15, 2009 at 9:37 am
Hi NEPA! Good to see your ostrichy little face!
There are few greater honors than being called a ‘wingnut’ in the defense of liberty. I always love these “drive by jerks” who offer nothing but a label; no criticism, no reasons. Just labels.
This “report” is an acknowledgment that the overwhelming majority of our veterans are conservatives. Maybe Obama SHOULD be afraid on some level. But to attack our greatest citizens without evidence – and they even acknowledge they have no evidence and supply only the name “Timothy McVei” in PLACE of evidence – is demonic.
The man who campaigned as the guy who would unite the nation (which was always bizarre, given that he was on the farthest side of the far left) is now revealing that he is out to get his opponents any way he can.
April 15, 2009 at 9:41 am
I got over myself a long time ago. Please follow suit.
Matt, you are a fool. “The same has been said about left wing groups.” Really? I demand that you produce the evidence that President Bush defined ordinary, average Democrats as dangerous threats the way Obama just did of average, ordinary Republicans. I DEMAND you offer proof of that, you liar.
I ALSO demand that you offer proof that President Bush warned that the American people should be afraid of their own veterans.
And you also reveal what a hypocrite you are on your last sentence: if Obama and the left wanted to abolish DHS, they could do so TODAY. So don’t you dare use that crap here. This is the Obama Leftist Department of Homeland Security, and the left owns it now.
April 15, 2009 at 9:48 am
Here is an article from someone on the left advocating violence and organizing on the models of the communists and Islamist terrorists because he didn’t like the results of the past elections. Note that he deliberately says the Western democratic model is inadequate for the left, and deliberately chooses the most radical and most violent models instead.
I think of the last two elections that “Bush stole” and have to laugh given the fact that ACORN was convicted of fraud in state after state and the right STILL hasn’t come out in numbers to dispute the election results. And I note that you call for us to VOTE in two years.
The LEFT are the real terrorists. And they have been for over a century now.
April 15, 2009 at 4:46 pm
First of all, You called him a fool for thinking that people have called the liberals terrorists, and then called them terrorists yourself; That’s just stupid.
Second of all, People need to stop screaming at each other and work together. We’re in a pretty crappy situation right now, and the only way out of it is to stop arguing and get something done for once.
April 15, 2009 at 5:55 pm
“Liberals” are “terrorists” if and only if they attempt to use terror against innocent civilians for political effect, just like “conservatives” who might do such would likewise be. Liberals such as William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn most definitely qualify by that standard, but few other liberals do. The only thing that is stupid, Dylan, is using a term such as “terrorist” or (the DHS’ term) “rightwing extremist” who have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING whatsoever to do with being either a “terrorist” or an “extremist.” And since you are joining Matt in playing the most stupid and foolish moral equivalency game imaginable, the terms “stupid” and “foolish” (though I very much doubt “terrorist” or “leftwing extremist”) apply to you.
I cited the Obama DHS’ own definition of a “rightwing extremist” that includes people who believe in a limited federal government, or people who are opposed to abortion or illegal immigration. You are defending putting people like that alongside with skinheads and hate groups. And that is despicable, it is stupid, it is foolish.
The time for you to say people need to stop screaming at each other is about eight years too late. You are obviously a liberal, or you wouldn’t be spouting the garbage line you are. Given your eight years of “Bush derangement syndrome,” you don’t have any right whatsoever to bitch or whine about the right’s “screaming.” For 8 years your side undermined, backstabbed, ridiculed, attacked, demonized, demagogued, and outright lied about every single thing Bush and Republicans did for nothing more than naked political opportunism.
You even were so vile, so treasonous, that you undermined the war in Iraq just to hurt Bush and Republicans. Your own Senate Majority leader Harry Reid declared the war lost. A war that we not only could win, but DID win. This was a war that 60% of Senate Democrats voted to authorize – before they traitorously turned against it just when we needed to be united.
Democrats initially said the following about Saddam Hussein, WMD, and the necessity to disarm Iraq:
http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/b/bushlied.htm
http://www.freedomagenda.com/iraq/wmd_quotes.html
http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/wmdquotes.asp
And then they came out with “Bush lied, people died.” Democrats used terms like “Nazi” to describe our troops. Jack Murtha called our Marines – who turned out to be innocent – murderers. Hillary Clinton all but called General Petraeus a liar. And a prominent liberal organization posted an ad that a prominent liberal newspaper published titled, “General Betray Us.”
So with no due respect, to hell with your pompous hypocritical moralizing. Your slimebag Democrats are in the bullseye now, and we will scream as much as we damn well want to scream. Especially as they ram one contemptible trillion dollar socialist bill after another down our throats.
April 15, 2009 at 6:11 pm
This is the definition that the DHS provided for a “rightwing” extremist:
Rightwing extremism in the United States can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups), and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration.
The phrase:
“rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority”
utterly flies in the face of the 10th Amendment of the Bill of Rights:
“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
And the attempt to demonize people who are pro-life, or anti-illegal immigration, as being on some par with skinheads and hate groups is morally and intellectually insane.
If you are a liberal with an IQ above your shoe size, and you don’t want conservatives coming after YOU some damn day as “extremists” to be singled out because you harbor liberal views, you’d better stop defending this crap right the hell now.
And the move to attempt to make Americans afraid of their own veterans is as despicable as it gets. And every Democrat ought to be ashamed of themselves for allowing the Obama administration to release such an offensive and unconstitutional POS.
April 16, 2009 at 9:11 am
I am one of many, (or everyone/anyone I have met in the months preceeding Obamas sham election). I know of no firemen/policemen/military/ who voted for him or at least admit it now. Yes– we are a very wary and fearful natin right now.By we I mean most all Americans who work for a living, believe in individual freedoms, the Bill of Rights, and the foundation of America. All under assualt as of this admin. Remember veterans took an oath- to pull from one line-” to defend the constitution from all enemies, both foreign and Domestic-” I believe in that for which my fore fathers fought and died for- Freedom from oppression-
Our politians who blindly vote against the very people that elected them to “get along in DC” will get there reward either before or at their next election. I believe they will all be voted out, if ACORN is closely watched. But hey, even when corruption is caught,redhanded, if it is liberal/socialist based, it seems to be un-touchable-
God Bless America- without His blessings we are sunk-
WGSmith
April 16, 2009 at 1:19 pm
First of all, I don’t like either party.
Second of all, It’s not demonizing pro-life supporters, it’s just saying people like http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1058/is_n5_v115/ai_20334585/ that are on the rise.
Third of all, William Ayers is a professor at the college I go to. He may have been one in the past, but not now.
April 16, 2009 at 1:51 pm
You are an idiot…. seriously those were all taken out of contex and he’s talking abou the extremist who still believe that state rights should be exhaulted over a national government. You know how many abortion clinics have been bombed and immigrants have been discriminated against. Why should we not be worried that people with extreme beliefs about either of these issues could resort to violence. Especially those who have a military background. I am so sick of conservatives
April 16, 2009 at 4:20 pm
Certainly the veterans serving RIGHT NOW aren’t all that enthusiastic about the change in commanders-in-chief.
This story with video pretty much says it ALL (especially at the very end, where the befuddled CNN reporter is helpless to account for the silence the Marines accorded to Obama).
Veterans are threats, but somehow ACORN wasn’t mentioned.
April 16, 2009 at 4:30 pm
Let’s start with your Third of all and compare it to your second of all: by your own reckoning, you really can’t call the pro-life Army of God people terrorists, as they did their thing ten years ago – and since William Ayers terrorism is old news and therefore irrelevant, so is the Army of God’s. Please don’t be such a hypocrite as to cite the Army of God as terrorist if you’re going to omit Bill Ayers.
I read the report: they don’t have ANY evidence that any of their so-called “rightwing extremists” are on the rise. I cited the fact that they ACKNOWLEDGE such in the article.
In my last comment above, I cite the 10th amendment to show how their “people who believe in states rights over the federal government” should be deemed as possible terrorists to show how blatantly unconstitutional this crap is.
Tell you what: you want to think the demonization of pro-lifers or people who oppose illegal immigration, along with our veterans, is fine, FINE. But when the pendulum swings the other way YOU’RE going to be on the chopping block next, and I hope you’ll be equally cavalier when YOU’RE deemed a threat to society.
We have a terrorist attack, for example, just ONE – and this country will swing so far to the right it will be unreal. Just remember how willing you were to accept the left’s demagoguery when that time comes.
If you voted for either George Bush or John McCain, I’d crap myself. I hope you don’t think you’re fooling anyone as to your ideology.
April 16, 2009 at 4:39 pm
“You know how many abortion clinics have been bombed.” No. Why don’t you give me the number. It must be in the hundreds, the way you’re citing it.
Illegal immigrants SHOULD be discriminated against – with deportation. That isn’t “rightwing extremism,” it is the law of the land and has been since day one. YOU discriminate against immigrants by mandating that those who abide by the law and wait in line must continue to wait in line because illegal immigrants break the law.
And the 10th amendment categorically states that states’ rights – along with the people’s – SHOULD be exalted over the federal government unless the Constitution specifically gives the federal government a particular power. Your feeble little brain is what has been taken out of context.
Tell you what, Jordan. Since you’re so sick of conservatives, I’ll block you so you won’t make yourself sick on MY conservative site anymore. It’s called troll tossing. I’d really rather not waste my time with the likes of you, anyway.
April 16, 2009 at 5:04 pm
One hundred and sixty-three abortion clinics have been bombed since 1989.
And I meant people LIKE the army of god people, not them themselves.
And you had no evidence of nuclear weapons in Iraq, but you invaded anyway.
April 16, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Wrong.
“Four incidents of attempted bombing or arson were reported in 2006, the NAF said. More than 40 abortion clinic bombings have occurred since 1977, with the last reported in 2001.”
“In the last 30 years, abortion clinics have been bombed 41 times according to law enforcement statistics compiled by the National Abortion Federation.”
A total of 7 abortion providers have been killed.
Now, 41 is a lot. It’s what? Just under 40% more bombings than William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn were responsible for all by themselves.
Sarah Palin’s church in Alaska was bombed during the campaign with people inside.
Do you have any freaking idea how many Americans are pro-life? Based on the fact that 54% of Americans identify themselves as pro-life, and given about 300 million, you’re talking about 160+ million people. And HOW MANY have bombed an abortion clinic? And we’re supposed to suspect pro-life people of being terrorists?
You are a Kool-Aid drinker. HotAir describes the difference in how the “rightwing” and “leftwing” “threat” is handled. The DHS report completely omits a number of terrorist attacks by leftwing groups. And the Obama administration is out to get the right.
As much as you might want to demonize Bush, he didn’t use his power to attack his opposition: Bush didn’t declare pro-abortionists or pro-illegal immigration supporters as terrorists. That kind of hate can only come from the left.
When someone combines political power with ideology to come after you, I hope you don’t complain, because that would make you quite the hypocrite.
Btw, I didn’t invade Iraq. But if it bothers you that the United States put an end to Saddam Hussein and the 400,000 bodies in mass graves, I’m very sorry. I suppose you were hoping he’d make it to 500,000.
April 16, 2009 at 7:54 pm
You know what, I’m wasting my time.
April 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm
Worse yet, you’re wasting mine.
I only refuted every damn thing you said. The truth IS a waste of time for a liberal.
April 17, 2009 at 12:42 am
It is no coincidence that the information concerning the “right wing extremsits” to be potental domestic terrorists came our shortly before the tea parties. Everything the Democrats do is part of a strategy to silence any opposition. They have used propoganda buzz words to silence people for years.
They have called anyone who didn’t vote for Obama a racsist and if you disagree with his policies you are called racist. Many people have gotten fed up with that line of crap and it is no longer effective. So now they come out basically accusing anyone who does not agree with thier ideology a terrorist.
Looks like they are only interested in demonizing true Americans, and don’t have any stomach for fighting the real terrorists like the muslim extremists who threaten America.
It is quite telling that Democrats are trying to paint true Americans who believe in the right to keep and bear arms as well as returning Veterans as threat to their POWER. Everyone is quite aware of the run on guns and ammo due to the anti gun Democrats in government CONtrolling everything. Our Founding Fathers wisely DID NOT TRUST GOVERNMENT, ESPECIALLY BIG GOVERNMENT because they knew the sinful nature of man, that given absolute power corrupts. So of course they were brilliant to provide checks and balances. At this present time there is no check on Obama and his extremist policies, as his Democrats CONtrol both houses. BUT ONE CHECK REMAINS, we the people still have the power of the Second Amendment. I am not advocating violence, but only as a last resort to tyrannical government. It is foolish to say it can’t happen here. Given the mean spirited crap Democrats pull, it would not surprise me if they started killing people.
So the best non violent way to deal with Obama is the voting boooth.
NEUTER OBAMA
AT THE POLLS
2010.
Vote his Democrat comrads out of office so he can’t keep ramming his extremist agenda down America’s throat.
Make this your slogan, put it on bumper stickers and t shirts.
Pass it on to your friends who care concerned about the wront road this country is headed. NUETER OBAMA AT THE POLLS, 2010.
April 17, 2009 at 8:19 am
hahaha micheal eden u just completly wrecked dylan robinson, that last line the truth IS a waste of time for a liberal made my gut burst from laughter thank you for posting
April 17, 2009 at 12:16 pm
I received my undergraduate degrees from the very liberal Portland State University. It wasn’t until after I’d graduated that I began to realize that they didn’t even LET me get exposed to anything resembling genuine conservative or traditional thought. When they bothered to interact with conservative-friendly, or free-market thinking, it was as a straw man, which they finished off by distorting the facts to fit their leftist presuppositions.
Whether it’s on history (e.g. the founding fathers), or whether it’s on the issues, there is an unrelenting attempt to undermine the truth with theory, such that when the facts get in the way of the theory, so much the worse for the facts.
As an example, Dylan threw in the Iraq invasion – which had NOTHING to do with the Obama administration declaring that our veterans should be distrusted, or that ordinary Americans harboring ordinary conservative political or moral positions should similarly be distrusted. It was nothing but an attempt to get AWAY from the real issue: as draconian as the left said the Bush administration was, they never did ANYTHING to politically target ordinary liberals the way Obama just targeted tens of millions of ordinary conservatives.
April 17, 2009 at 12:35 pm
Lovemyruger, you said it very well.
The 2nd Amendment right of the people to bear arms was a reaction against the return of government tyranny which they had just fought to overcome – and today we are seeing the return of principles that deny individual liberty in favor of a supermassive nanny state. Government is NOT my savior, and as the founding fathers said when told to disarm themselves in the name of their sovereign, “We have no Sovereign but God and no King but Jesus!”
Those last words were shouted at Lexington and Concord, and preambled the first shots of the Revolution.
April 17, 2009 at 1:19 pm
I was thinking today, WHAT it gets to that point in this country where the Democrats have so much power and there is no check on them and they start writing more anti gun legislation.
It is at that point the gun owners of America have to stand up, and flip them the finger from my cold dead hands.
Tell this useless eaters their laws are unconstitutional and we the American people aren’t going to obey them.
If they want to use their union thugs to draw first blood, then its all out war.
I hope it does not come to that, but these power hungry Democrat thugs are too drunk in their power.
Lets neuter Obama by voting his Democrat thugs out office in 2010. No doubt they will rely on their voter fraud machine, tax payer funded ACORN to steal the election.
If we get enough true Americans to the polls in 2010, our numbers will outnumber their voter fraud crimes.
Neuter Obama
at the polls
2010
In addition to FREEDOM! Let this be our anthem.. Neuter Obama at the polls 2010!!!
April 17, 2009 at 1:48 pm
Oh, there is no question whatsoever that Obama and the Democrats want to suppress and deny gun rights.
Obama is now joining with an international effort to limit guns (so only terrorists have them).
Globalism is a repudiation of American sovereignty and the American Constitution.
And – to bring the “gun right” point home to the point of the article (Obama slandering and attacking veterans and political issue opponents), this is a man who will lie and demonize in order to create an “anti-gun” straw man.
As he’s already doing.
April 17, 2009 at 2:09 pm
We are not obligated to give up our sovereignty even if The President of the United States is a traitor and does this. He and his thugs in the government can make all the unconsitutional laws they want. At a certain point, enough will be enough.
Americans will wake up and see the treachery. Unfortunately, they will have to suffer awhile before they wake up to the madness. You can only hide your head in the sand so long while the vultures are tearing your flesh out.
Let the UN come to America and try to take our guns.
What is Obama going to do.
Use the very US military and veterans he and his parasite Democrats have no respect for?
I doubt that those in the military would obey him at that point.
You would have a few who are power hungry and will be his gestapo, but most Americans who go into the military LOVE their country and their families. I cannot see them murdering their own countrymen so that we bow down to the UN.
We bow to no one, except The Lord God Almighty.
Got news for you Democrats, your obama ain’t no god. He’s not a leader, he’s a follower. He wants to follow Europe. He wants their praises. How very pathetic
I can’t see any European country sending their soldiers here to force us to comply either. They won’t even protect their own countries.
Obama will have to find people in this country to start imprisoning us and killing us, but I can guarantee, it won’t be the military. It may be the union thugs. It may be his “volunteer brigade”.
Lets hope this doesn’t happen, but keep on watch in case it does.
Perhaps we should do what we always do last, PRAY.
Pray for God’s help, to restore this country.
God has his own ways of eliminating wicked rulers.
April 17, 2009 at 3:43 pm
Kind of gives me the sense that maybe when the left presented Obama as uniting America after Bush divided it was a gigantic lie. I myself feel more divided, more fed up, more angry, than I have ever been about a president or a political system.
Same is true in the world. Iran gave Obama an “up yours” by announcing that they were full steam ahead on their nuke program after he played so nice with them. North Korea gave Obama a finger in the eye with its ballistic missile test, and has announced it plans another finger in the eye. The pirates have gone to war with Obama. And even French President Sarkozy is pretty much saying he thinks Obama is a lightweight chump.
Some have suggested that Obama might attempt to mend relations with North Korea by bowing down before Kim Jong Il the way he did with Prince Abdullah. In fact, If I were Kim Jong Il, I’d be personally offended: where’s MY genuflection?
The world is headed for financial and political apocalypse. The beast is coming.
April 17, 2009 at 4:15 pm
For any liberals who want to come here to CONTINUE to defend this insane slander of conservatives and veterans, let me say this:
1) Napolitano has been excoriated for her statements about veterans on even mainstream liberal sources – and she has issued an apology. So you are a hard-core radical for trying to continue to defend such the stance that this was an appropriate portrayal of veterans.
2) The senior Democrat of the House committee with oversight of the department said the most recent report raises privacy and civil liberty issues. “This report appears to have blurred the line between violent belief, which is constitutionally protected, and violent action, which is not,” Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., wrote in a letter to Napolitano.
While I would submit that being pro-life clearly isn’t “violent belief,” it remains obviously true that this DHS “assessment” – which has been issued to every police department in the nation – crossed the line into not merely marginalizing but using government resources to attack political views.
If you want to keep arguing that the DHS document was appropriate, fine. But let it be done to you one day, and let this be but a stepping stone so it be done far worse unto you.
If you are so radical on the left that you will demonize your political opposition, then don’t you dare expect conservatives to treat you any differently.
April 17, 2009 at 5:02 pm
Someone commented about the lie that Bush divided the country.
It was Bill Clinton that divided the country with his Democrat propoganda. Don’t you recall Dick Gephardt, the House Minority leader alaways railing and calling anyone who didn’t agree with them that you were a right wing extremist.
Since the Obama administration is made up of a lot of Clinton retreads, it is no accident his DHS used the same terminology
right before the Tea Parties to silence people.
That was a common proganda buzz phrase that the Clintonoids used over and over again. Here too seemed to originate the propoganda buzz words, “gun toting redneck” to describe anyone who believes in The Constitutional right to keep and bear arms. “Paranoid gun nut” is another. “Homophobe” was a word invented during that administration.
The propoganda use of Racist became popular with the emergence of the community organizer with the thin resume.
I suggest every time of one these Obama zombies plays these games, just throw it back at them.
Left wing extremist, traitor, yellow bellied, anti Christian bigot, baby killers, anti gun coward are some accurate descriptions of these individuals as well as their politicians.
Obama is just as much a divider as Clinton. It is obvious Obama has dug some of his tactics out of the left wing extremist playbook. Obama’s thugs, like the DHS play the same games.
They are so corrupt that they have gotten bold about it. This corrupt boldness backfired on them when they once again smeared those in the military.
So beware. There is always a con game going on.
They put out the phony statistic that 90% of the guns the drug cartel uses in Mexico came from the US. This was done to set the stage for more gun CONtrol. They knew Obama was going to Mexico and this would be a perfect time to screw us over in the name of controlling the drug problem.
Things are never as Obama and Democrat comrads say they are.
They are constantly scheming to CONtol and manipulate the American public to advance their extremist agenda.
Coincidentally enough, this is the type of behavoir NARCISSISTS exhibit.
It is all about CONtrol and manipulation. Narcissists pit people against one another to achieve their ends.
Obama was quite slick at the old tried but true class warfare game that Democrats have used for decades. They want you to hate the rich, never mind that these Democrat vermin are rich fat cats themselves. Oh, but they are for you the common man they say. And all the while they are playing the public like a chess game.
The only thing the current crop of politicians cares about is themselves, their big fat bank accounts and their insatuable lust for more and more power over our lives.
Until we the people realize what is going on, we are going to still be a divided country, EXACTLY THE WAY DEMOCRATS WANT IT.
Obama is a liar when he pretends to want to unite the country.
He only wants to “unite” the country ON HIS TERMS.
AND WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE LOSE.
They want to enslave us, make us dependent upon them.
As a great American once said:
Telling us how to think, has evolved into telling us what to say,
telling us what to do can’t be far behind.
Sadly too many mind numbed robots are happy that way ON THE DEMOCRAT PLANTATION.

You make an awful lot of good points. The politics of demonization were begun by the left, and perpetuated by the left. To the extent that conservatives are finally beginning to pick up the “total war” approach is another matter. If they keep firebombing your cities, at some point you firebomb theirs.
I can think of the Supreme Court picks. The term “Borking” was created to describe the vicious attempt by Democrats to destroy Robert Bork. And even after that took place, Republicans didn’t use anything like those tactics to stop Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Why not? Because they were playing by the old rulebook – which Democrats had long since pissed on. Republicans voted for Ginsburg because she met the criterion; the left haven’t shown that kind of respect for fair play in decades.
Then what happened after Republicans supported Ginsburg? Clarence Thomas. The left attacked him with a viciousness that I have only seen directed at Bush. The fact that Thomas was black made them hate and despise him even MORE (like Sarah Palin’s being a woman). They used the most evil, racist attacks to try to destroy him.
And now they are doing to ordinary Republicans and conservatives what they have tried to do to officials.
The Obama administration is engaging in political profiling when it comes to conservatives. And that is a new low and a new evil in modern American politics. The fact that the left approves is even more disturbing. Dissent for the left was a sacred right (even when they demonized a war with troops in the field and demonized the troops themselves). Dissent for the right is an offense that results in the Obama government notifying the police to watch you.

Yes, this is why I believe Democrats are evil people.
Thier tactics are thuggish. They are decietfully wicked.
When Democrats protest, they start destroying property and physically assualting people. They wanted to linch the AIG executives and there wasn’t any outrage over that, except from conservatives.
It is becoming more apparent that this is about good and evil.
Look at what Democrats endorse, everything that is immoral, unjust and unAmerican. They seem to have no sense in what is right and wrong. The only thing that matters is INFLICTING THEIR MENTALITY ON THE COUNTRY.
There is a lot of truth in the old cliche that the Democrat Party appeals to the dumbed down, immoral and uniformed.
Someone sent me an email about Obama’s “youth brigade” a piece of legislation dealing with mandatory “volunteerism”.
One has to wonder what the punishment is if you refuse to “volunteer” for this. WHO will head this group and what will they preach to these youth. It is no wonder true Americans are repulsed by this concept and you have to wonder if this is the seeds of a Hitler Obama youth.

In California, homosexuals went nuts over the Prop 8. They had rallies – but even in Palm Springs they weren’t anywhere near as large as the April 15 tea parties. And there was nothing even close to the tea parties’ impact in the rest of the country (with the Prop 8 protests). Didn’t matter. The New York Times ran 8 major stories on the Prop 8 protest – and ZERO on the tea parties. And when they mentioned the tea parties, it was in arrogant opinion, rather than coverage.
The Prop 8 protesters were just over-the-top hateful in California. They published the lists of people who financially contributed to the Yes on 8 campaign, and then targeted those people with vandalism, threatening phone calls, hate mail (to their homes), and protests and boycotts designed to hurt businesses.
The tea parties were peaceful events. Over 750 of them all over the country, with hundreds of thousands of people – and not much more than a traffic ticket.
When the media can positively cover the former, and negatively cover the latter, you know we are in an era of raw propaganda.

God I hope our returning veterans are for the American people and not for the demon in the white house…
Obama has deliberately done and said tings to cause a civil war in America..Make no mistake about this..Looks to me like it will be civil war or total loss of freedom
April 19, 2009 at 6:52 pm
I most certainly hope it doesn’t come to that.
The founding fathers made it very clear in the Declaration of Independence that revolution is an absolute last resort compelled by ONLY the imposition of an absolute despotism. And we’re not under “despotism” today. Rather, we are under a smiley-faced, “compassionate” fascism.
What we need to do is keep organizing and keep exposing what is going on. We need to use our political system – nearly completely broken as it is – to pressure both Democrats and Republicans that they are spending themselves right out of their offices as we will vote them out.
In other words, let’s not tolerate either civil war OR total loss of freedom.
I was proud to attend a tea party; I hope there are more protest events to follow.

WHY HAS NO ONE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT HOMELAND SECURITY NOT NAMING MUSLIM AS TERRORISTS OR THE 35 MUSLIM TRAINING CAMPS IN USA….Obama is a master deceiver and is implying we are the terrorists and Muslims are peaceful….Muslims have never been peaceful..They have always practiced jihad…..The truth is i10 % of Muslims are terrorists and that means there are close to 200 million Muslim terrorists.. These are the real danger to America and to mankind..

Our institutions have been supplanted by fools who practice political correctness in place of wisdom and prudence. Therefore reality must be subsumed in favor of ideology.
Liberals are the “useful idiots” of our day, just as they were before World War II and during the Cold War. Tyrants and totalitarians can always count on liberals to justify their evils.

Have you ever thought about why Obama is sending troops back into afganistsn and has not brought any troops home? What happens if most of our troops get sent all over this world and we don`t have hardly any at home,and then obamas private armys start attacking the U.S. from inside,how would our troops get home? Sorry, but I will never have trust in Obama.And I will tell you something else.This one is for the black race,and the yellow race. Obama is to the black race, a god,. But only in this country.He is an arabian muslem and through out the world. The black race is hated by most of the world. Obama will take out the black race first. When are the blacks going to see that obama does not consider himself to be one of you. He is another Tiger Woods.

gaetano,
This is an example of how two people can be on the same side (in this case squarely against the Obama agenda) and yet disagree.
I think you bring up some interesting scenarios (e.g. keeping troops out of the country so Obama can take over here), but that isn’t the way I think it will play out.
Some liberals would argue your presentation is racist. While I wouldn’t state things the way you do, I’m not one of those people. To the extent that Obama is accused of being a Muslim, he’s got mostly himself to blame. Rather than tell us what he truly believes, Obama dismisses prima facia evidence, such as the fact that he grew up in Indonesia, going to a Muslim school, with most of his Kenyan family essentially swearing he’s a Muslim. Add to that that Obama went to a church that put Nation of Islam leader Farrakhan on a pedestal, and that Farrakhan preached that Obama was “the messiah,” and you’ve got credibility for a whole bunch of speculation. Obama’s propagandists dismissed that stuff without explaining why he is most definitely NOT a Muslim.
I agree with you that Obama isn’t about helping black people. He’s a leftist and a Marxist first LONG before he’s black. And he’ll help another racial group (such as Hispanics) and screw blacks if that will help his leftist agenda.
Michelle Malkin wrote some interesting things in her book, “Culture of Corruption,” about how the Obamas’ benefactor Valerie Jarrett was essentially a slumlord, and that Michelle Obama served on several boards that engaged in patient dumping poor people so they could bring in more lucrative insured patients, undermined low-income properties so they could profit by redeveloping the properties – all while publicly congratulating themselves for their service to the very poor that they were in fact screwing. You find all kinds of cozy, self-serving, ‘you scratch my back I’ll scratch yours’ cliques in Chicago – and the Obamas were involved in them big time.

Congrats on writing a clearly biased article on quotes taken out of context.
October 13, 2011 at 1:07 pm
Hey, you’re welcome!
And thank you for your “clearly biased” assessment of my article.
People like you frankly make me sick, anonymous.
You say, “based on quotes taken out of context.” You are a liar without shame. Which quotes? And how were they taken out of context? You don’t add that stuff, because only an honest person would – and you aint an honest person.
If anybody wants to call me out, back it up with facts the same way I did. Otherwise, just don’t even bother.
