Beyond what I wrote immediately above, I have nothing else to write. Sometimes words just can't express the depth of moral outrage you can feel about this kind of stuff.

Welcome to Amerika, comrade. The Brownshirts have arrived.

Wow.

Is that really you? I'd hire a lawyer ASAP and get on Hannity, Rush, or O’ Reilly immediately to protect yourself.

Jessica came on Free Republic the other day, invited by another FReeper, and updated on her story.

This was the thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2100115/posts?page=44#44
This was her introduction to FR: (comment #44)

Thank you for your comment. To update everyone following this, I have contacted the FBI who told me they have no jurisdiction, but that unless I take legal action this file and report will follow me the rest of my life. I have also contacted my Senator, Kay Bailey Hutchison and Congressman Louie Gohmert and I am hoping they will at least point me to SOMEONE with authority to bring this case to court. I want the file purged and I want this woman charged. If anyone wants to watch for updates on it I will be posting them at my own blog: Young, Wise and Conservative (ywc.bogtownhall.com)

Nope. Not me. I received this via e-mail from a friend. And for those who may have missed it, here’s another bit of Hussein’s bullying tactics on free speech (apparently this man of Muslim faith and his kool-aid drinking supporters) can’t stand the idea of the First Amendment. Here’s a link you NEED to see...

I was confused by your post, the but the reality is no less horrifying.

Yep, we are in trouble big time.

Yes. That is why he MUST NOT win. He MUST NOT even be close. I am afraid he will use Odinga tactics.

I think she handled the situation quite well. Thank you for continuing to post this.

The agents were merely following up on a lead they were ordered to check out by their superiors, and of course they had to ask certain questions and probe a bit to really determine if there was anything to the allegation—I don’t fault them for it. However, Ms. Lufkin was perfectly justified in being rather obstreperous and insistent about her rights and her indignation.

If anything, I certainly would find fault with the sleazoid Obammunists who would call the Secret Service based on either a) imagining Lufkin said something that she didn’t say, or b) lying to the Secret Service about what Lufkin said in order to retaliate and cause trouble for her, waste taxpayers’ money and the agents’ time/important resources, and so forth.

Some people on Free Republic think that Obama's administration will be a simple socialist government when they couldn't be further from the truth.

Obama will run America like Kim Jung Il runs North Korea.

Anyone who doesn't believe me needs to wake the h@ll up, and read stories like this one.

They just wanted to rattle you..

I would have said I have frequent thoughts of Borat Obama dieing in some embarrassing and humiliating circumstances..

-AND- would remember both their faces when the inevitable gang gallows is set up on the White House Lawn.. to punish the minions of the Marxist Obama.. like themselves.. And if I am chosen to be the Hangman they would be in serious trouble unless they changed their ways..

Unfortunately the Secret Service can’t afford to let any reported threat slide. Sounds like you got a snarky agent. It doesn’t help to play hard ball with them. You’re not going to win that game.

Secret Service / You

Let me guess who carries more weight with a judge. I don’t like what happened. I hope the offending reporting party gets taken down hard on this. You’ll never know it if they do.

I would probably try to see what you can do about it, but I’m not sure if there really is anything you can do.

It doesn’t seem right that someone could file a false report with the Secret Service and get away with it. If the person is ethnocentric, good luck.

The great thing is that you stood your ground. When you allow them to bully you you give up your rights. When you stand up to them, you retain your power and make them back down.

He'll try to use Odinga tactics even if he loses. He may succeed, but he has one problem to face.

The problem for him, I think, is that the majority of Americans just aren't as in to him as many Muslim Kenyans were into Odinga.

Obama is flavor of the month, and he is a fraud who can't stand up without a teleprompter. His own handlers will eat him alive if he becomes President.

And all “Joe the Plummer” did was ask a question. Now he’s the target of vicious left-wing character assassination, and the MSM seems not to have a problem with this. Rather, they report personal facts about the man dug up by Obama’s “smear tacticians” without ever questioning if digging up dirt on a private citizen - who was cast into the spotlight by Obama’s absurd and outrageous (and telling!) statement itself - is ethical, proper, or even legal!

I have to be honest with you, folks: I’m so pissed off at McCain for racing to support this bailout and for running the kind of campaign that wouldn’t get him elected dog catcher in a one-dog town, that I was tempted to sit this election out.

But after reading, hearing and seeing what Hussein has in store for this country - a man who is so clearly anti-American and contemptuous of our Constitution - I’m going to hold my nose and pull the Republican lever, if for no other reason than we must have “Anybody But Obama!”

For what it’s worth, if Obama wins I suspect after a few years we’ll all have big fat FBI files being kept on us.

Guys...

I’m not the subject of this article.

Just wanted to clear that up once and for all.
