Radio talk show icon Michael Savage has teamed up with the Thomas More Law Center of Ann Arbor, Mich., to file a lawsuit against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.
"It is a civil rights action brought under the First and Fifth Amendments to the United States Constitution, challenging the policy, practice, and custom of the United States Government that targets for disfavored treatment those individuals and groups that are considered to be 'rightwing extremists,'" the complaint announced today said.
The federal agency recently targeted those individuals in its report called "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment."

Stunt for show? Maybe. I don’t care. I’m fully backing Savage on this one.
Savage also urged people call , email and fax their Senators and Representatives demanding Napolitano’s resignation.
GET ‘ER, MIKE!!!
Regardless, I am with the prior poster who said he/she was with Savage on this one...
Ditto!
Hope this doesn’t turn out like a Larry Klayman deal who screws up EVERY case he touches.....maybe that’s Klaymans PURPOSE!
The left has been killing us with ‘publicity stunts’ for years. Its time we turn the table on them.
They don't give a rat's arse what we want or think.
At least the Savage law suit will keep this issue in the forefront for a while.
I think it is great. Give them a dose of their own medicine. I am sick of these people.
They are moving out of the "Moscow on the Huron" to FLA, but they were started and funded in part by Monaghan of Pizza Fame who is a man of faith and is turning out a cadre of conservative jurist.
The fact that they did this with Savage might say that he truly has a case.
Using Alinsky’s rules against them. Nice move.
Specifically:
RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
RULE 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.
Not a Klayman suit.
This lawsuit is under the wing of The Thomas More Law Center, a national public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
These people are effective and well worth supporting.
I know it isn’t a Klayman suit....I was just commenting on Savage getting in.
I did three tours in Viet Nam fighting and watching people die for the Constitution as they swore to do if needed. And this mindless political hack is going to label me as something other than patriotic??? Why do we let these far LEFT extremists use labels and then listen to them when THEY say we can’t? Lets develop some cajones (sp) Conservatives! What are the credentials for her in that office in the first place??
Oh I’m sorry. I forgot that this is the administration where qualifications don’t matter any longer. Witness the tax cheating Sec. of Treasury. I just don’t want to hear anyone pi$$ing and moaning from anyone who voted for the great big 0. You get what you pay for America.
One sustaining thought that keeps me going is that it took a Carter to give us a Reagan. Will we get a Conservative after this Present Carter Lite??
