WASHINGTON — Governors across the country said Friday that they had received letters from an extremist group warning that that they might be forcibly removed from office if they did not step down within three days.
Officials from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security confirmed that they had sent out an intelligence note with information about potential threats made to governors by a group calling itself Guardians of the Free Republics.
Free Republics is not the same as the FreeRepublic.
From what I have heard, authorities only have a name for the group that sent the letters. They no nothing about the group. One radio report on FOX today said the authorities were not taking it as a serious, imminent threat. So how can the NYT call it an extremist group.
When all is said and done, what if some left wing group sent the letters to simply make a news story?
Gonna be close enough for most liberals. Oh well.
My Governor got one of those letters. Oh, the lefties are all a-twitter in Madtown today, LOL!
It must be a headfake though, because he’s already announced that he’s done enough damage to our state and is retiring...and taking his $2 million dollar war chest with him into the sunset...

Of course not. Dont these liberal fakes have a better sounding name...like ‘SERVICE INTERNATIONAL UNION OF THE ACORN”?
That makes two of us that understand that. Come monday, I thing there will be many who still do not.
I can’t vouch for Napolitano’s band of clowns but if this “group” actually exists, the FBI knows about it.
Why do I think this is a democrat set-up job? This fits their M.O.
The first reports stated that the letters were not threatening. weird.
Not only know about it, have infiltrated it--or soon will.
Granted, I haven't researched them - but I don't see where they are much different than what Patrick Henry spoke about with regards to the tyrannical British.

Their site looks Ron Paulish-Alex Jones.
Yup! If there is anyone out there still doing their job, it’s the FBI. IMHO.
Nothing worse than in any of the other letters I’ve sent over the past eight years, LOL!
Don’t know what all the hullabaloo is all about. ;)
