Think Obama, Inc. if laying the groundwork to justify need for 'his' civilian army and probably is hoping to ban 'Tea Partiers' from gathering at some point. (Too much risk of violence etc. et al. . .)

As to vote; it has been offered that Obama does not care if GOP wins in Nov as this may favor Dem Party as being more appealing as a 'balance'. If true, they must figure they can take these Repubs out; or control them; per their Chicago Way. . .

Of course, cannot doubt they have 'worst case scenario' at the ready as well. "Election Cancelled Until Further Notice"

I know this is going to sound maybe a bit far fetched to some. And maybe worse to others. But, this is what the nazis started to do with the Jewish people, years before they started to round them up and murder them. This is what anyone does who is afraid of someone, wants them to shut up or wants to use them as scapegoats. Demonize first, blow things way out of proportion, to such an extreme it's not the truth but a lie. I saw Al Sharpton do this yesterday on O'Reilly. There is an element of racism in the tea party he said. You don't see any black faces in the crowds. Which is a lie, true there aren't many though, but, that doesn't make it racist. Any more than it makes it racist to go to a Barry Manilow concert and not see many black faces. O'Reilly was very reasonable about it, saying there is always some in all these kinds of movements that are loons, this shouldn't define the whole movement.

But, who would know that if they aren't paying attention? All these voices screeching, racist and look what they do to Sarah Palin? It's getting disgusting, it's so dishonest.

No kidding!!! Maybe those people they arrested in the Michigan Militia were doing something illegal. But, I’ve also seen this type of thing happen before, we all have. Where the FBI and other law enforcement over react. I’m not saying that’s what happen in Michigan the other day. I’m just saying we haven’t heard the other side yet.

The only difference between Al Sharpton and a sack of crap is the sack.

A good lawyer will likely have the accused out and the charges dropped or reduced in short order. One of the news shows had the US Attorney in charge of the case on. She had nothing solid just “We think..” “We believe..” etc. Lame case.

The truth of the charges don't matter in the least bit to professional agitators like Gene. The goal is to repeat the meme many, many times, all over the place so that it starts to implant into the average drone's mind. This is why they have no interest in debate or rebuttal. The goal is not truth, the goal is brainwashing.

Also, notice how the same folks who never want to jump to any conclusions when a Muslim commits an act of terroristic mass murder all of the sudden have tried and convicted us in the court of public opinion?

Eugene Robinson expectorated on a group of white Boy Scouts.

He urinated on a bus full of Oriental tourists.

He shouted “Gooks” at a Vietnamese Christian Seminary class.

I believe you are correct. These are the first steps. The 'rats are going to take a pounding in the upcoming elections, worst defeats they've ever seen.

This will scare obama who already knows he cannot legally run again. If he tries to run again, too many States are going to ask for absolute irrefutable proof of his eligibility, which he either can't produce, or at the very least doesn't want to produce. (since he has been spending millions hiding it)

Once there is a GOP controlled Congress and a GOP President, obama and his cohorts in crime know they are very likely to be investigated for their illegal and un-Constitutional actions. I believe obama is at least considering, if not planning to try, to halt the 2012 election process very early on with bogus claims of right-wing violence making them too dangerous. It would of course become a self-fulfilling prophecy, as such an action would no-doubt cause the Constitution defending right to rise up.

This type of thing ruins reputations. It could have been there goal. To ruin the name and put a smear on the Militia. Michigan Militia has been around for decades. Never hear anything from them. That’s why I was very suspicious when I heard this was going on. Especially when we all know who Holder is and what he’s done in the past. At the very least he has seriously poor judgement and at the most.....fill in the blank.

The arrests dealt “a severe blow to a dangerous organization that today stands accused of conspiring to levy war against the United States,” Attorney General Eric Holder said.

If there is any organization conspiring against our form of government it is this administration.

The US Constitution is a CONTRACT between the people and the federal government. These leftists, our own government (!) is un-American. They are a blight, a cancer, an evil big government ideology that literally killed tens of millions in the 20th Century. Have we forgotten why we fought the Cold War, the destruction wrought by Mao, Stalin, and Hitler—statists all?

This nation was founded on individualism. Monarchies, dictatorships, and oligarchies are common to this world. America was built to be something different, and we have benefited greatly from it.

The leftists have NO right to vote our freedoms away, not like this. In this country, even a majority does not have the right to oppress a political minority. I see no constitutional amendments giving them the authority to redistribute wealth. Do you?

If the left truly believed in democracy, they’d try to amend the constitution to make health care a right. Ah, they won’t do that, because they’d lose. That makes them law breakers—no better than criminals, and criminals deserve no respect.

This November, we either defeat these evil statists, this failed ideology that has ruined so many countries before ours, or we will lose what many generations of Americans built. Leftists want to talk about doing things for the children? I say we must save this country FOR the children.

That is one way to keep him off the ballot — demand that representatives in each state introduce and work to enact legislation that would require all candidates for President to produce an official birth certificate.
