This fits with the general pathology of liberals; punish the innocent and reward the guilty.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano must lie like this...she has to INVENT this so as to paint ALL who disagree with Obama as a "Right-Wing Extremist"

I honestly thought I would remain far from resenting or even hating people like this but I am at the edge of total resentment of these kinds of people and their Purposeful hate-crime broad-brush painting of all who are innocent. It purposeful as it is creating the false impression that this is a security issue. Its just like the lying jerk at the airport whom you are calmly discussing your issue with saying loudly "You need to calm down sir/ma'am" so as to create the totally false impression that you are the evil doer.

Thanks liberals of the current left...this is your legacy...hate politics.

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

The problem is that they do not.

Congress and our esteemed president would behave a lot better if they thought that there was a real possibility of being dragged out of Capitol Hill and strung up on the lamp posts nearby.

Dysfunctional analysis leads to dysfunctional institutional policy making. It also leads to unintended consequences.

This report indicates that an entire government department is worried about the next McVeigh. But let us be very clear about the lesson of McVeigh: his OKC bomb was meant to observe the anniversary of the federal government's debacle of Waco, a debacle based on the same security-bureaucrat mindset we still see in this latest DHS report.

It is in the realm of reason to say that had Waco not happened, the Murrah building would not have been bombed.

(But then again, if John Doe Number Two was really someone from Al Quiada, then McVeigh might have hit it anyway for another reason. It was a large building with a particularly vulnerable architectural design.)

Well, the left is finally being honest. They believe that anyone who believes in the core values of America is an extremist and we are to them. I for one, am proud to be considered an extremist by such cretins.

What does it say about the left when they identify people who believe in the right to life as being extreme? Sounds like the twenty first century version of Nazism is upon us.

"'I was briefed on the general topic, which is one that struck a nerve as someone personally involved in the Timothy McVeigh prosecution,' Ms. Napolitano said."

Uhuh. She must have a lot of penis envy to generalize McVeigh's ate-up behavior to veterans in general.

My thoughts are that John Podesta (Soros' butt boy) guessed who would be at the parties and what issues their placards would support.

From that he wrote the report describing every Right issue and labeled us nuts.

Our government is at war with its citizens.

Go to Wikipedia. Follow through her information. It explains everything. These people hate the military. It peeks out from under the ‘I support the troops blanket’.

Note well that the people that this report suggests keeping track of, are or used to be the mainstream Americans. Veterans, Christians, NRA members, etc., all the people liberals hate.

I used to have a high esteem for Arizona. I thought they had a little more common sense politically, but between Napolitano and McCain, I don’t know. Must be the ton of former Iowans living in Arizona screwing up the political scene just like they have in the Hawkeye state for the last 50 years!

Last year I went down to visit family, and half the neighborhoods in Chandler and Mesa were former Iowans!

I am a veteran,
I am mad as hell and
I am armed.
And I am a right wing Reagan conservative.
And I think this “magic negro” is a socialist piece of crap.
