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.

Heck, I was a “right wing, anti-government extremist” long before I ever heard of Barry Soetoro.

Let’s watch out for those bible holding, gun toting, abortion hating Right Wingers. Meanwhile home grown Jihadis, Al Quaeda and other assorted left wingnuts shred the Constitution and destroy America.

“WE the People are now white-power militias? Haven’t we always been that? Don’t wake a sleeping giant.

This is great news! They are scared of citizens actually wanting to take their country back!

[unixfox]

...saying the economic recession, the election of America's first black president...

You would think they could come up with a better excuse. What a bunch of idiots!

[MrB]

Yeah, the last time Democrats were in power.

Notice, throughout history, that when leftists are in power they target the opposition in their own country every time?

The left’s MO, historically, is to criminalize and eliminate dissent and opposition.

I’ve looked over the 9 page report; it is a joke! The “director” of the DHS better resign since it is such trash! The Far Left in power tries to make defense of the Constitution a crime!

I just got off the phone with a lefty friend of mine and kiddingly asked her if she wanted to go the “Tea Party” tomorrow with me......she went off about how ‘they” are saying that it is a right wing movement.....I told her no it is Americans......she said she heard on the news that it was formed by the Republican party...
Is this how they are portraying it.......?

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.

All right, GOP...so-called conservatives from every corner,wherever you are...time to nut up and stand up!
crickets chirping..sound of a lone chair sliding on the floor...from out of the shadows,a beautiful,powerful woman stands up,raising both arms high in the air,sabre in one hand,rifle in the other..."Let's Roll",she says with a commanding,clear voice. "I came all the way from Alaska to help defend our country and her people!"

[RC2]

What’s happening now is that if you want your Constitution enforced, you are a rightwing extremist. Communism at its best.

It is simply amazing. I have not changed politically since Eisenhower and as the country has lurched left I have gone from center left to center, center to center right, center right to right and now from right to extreme right.
