This is outrageous! I would love to see a study contrasting criminal activity of vets vs. non-vets. I'd bet that vets are the far more law-abiding group.

There is a domestic terrorist threat to our country, but it's not from the patriotic Americans who have served our country. It's from drug-addled community organizers and their terrorist friends.

Is it possible that there is any sense of shame in the Senate from those who voted to confirm her? Geez louise!

Sad when the US Government fears it’s own people.

Mike German, policy counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union and a former FBI agent:

"There is plenty of crime out there for federal, state and local law enforcement to worry about. They don't need to invent threats that they have no factual basis for supporting."

History has shown us that to the left there IS no greater crime than being in disagreement with them. In the Gulags, criminals were higher in the social order than political prisoners.

This is disgraceful. The individual who wrote the report needs to be fired, and Napolitano needs to step down or be impeached.

It's a good idea, and I'll be the first to sign it, but Obama will just find another compromised individual to do his bidding. It's not Janet Napolitano who instigated this report. It's Obama, Holder, Rahm Emanuel, et al.

Nevertheless, we have to do what we can to call attention to this outrageous marginalization and demonization of conservatives. A petition is a good start.

letter to her highness being sent today:

Janet Napolitano
Department of Homeland Security
US Department of Homeland Security
Washington, D.C. 20528

April 15, 2009

Dear Secretary Napolitano:

Make sure your department is looking in the right places. One has to wonder about the experience and qualifications of at least some on your staff and office. The memorandum sent to law enforcement that brilliantly identified people who are pro-life, anti-(high) taxes, second amendment believers (for that matter the whole of the Constitution and Bill of Rights) believe in a smaller government—much smaller—are identified as possible domestic terrorists and should be watched. Wrong.

Your people may do better and be actually more effective if they would write memos like this about ANSWER, ELF and ACORN—to think of a few domestics among us. A number of these people actually do believe in forcibly changing our economic system, our government and our ability to defend ourselves—whereas the freedom loving people who believe in the Constitution do not desire to use violence to change the government. We will use the ballot box, information and as best as we can, try to educate as many leftists as we can about freedom (a laudable and difficult goal).

This memo was one of the most ridiculous examples of government waste and inefficiency I have ever read and there are many, many examples of the waste of tax dollars to pay people who derive such inane “analyses.” Please terminate his, her or their employment immediately because it is an obvious example of inaccuracy and negligence in work. The person or people who worked this one up should not be an employee’s) of ours. You didn’t approve this nonsense, did you?

Sincerely,

...Napolitano, Reno, Pelosi... It’s no surprise at all.

Tell your neighbors to keep their boys away from the recruiters, until we see real American leadership.
