Looks like the race pimps at SPLC are gearing up for another fund raising drive.

“There really is this kind of terrible fear, mixed with fury, about the idea that President Obama is somehow leading a kind of socialistic- you know, takeover of America.”

Hey, Mr. Acosta -- it's true about Obama leading a socialistic takeover of America. You haven't figured that one out that?

CNN has obviously declared war on U.S. Citizens.

What a skank bottom feeding propagandist sewer CNN has turned into.

extensively featured a militia from Michigan whose members purportedly “could not specify which of their constitutional rights are being peeled away.”

Could not specify? I doubt it. I would bet the members rattled off - 2nd amendment rights, property rights, freedom of speech and association, and several others. The reporters probably just couldn't figure out what that meant so they came up with the "could not specify" line.

I remember neighbors up the road from us complaining how Bush was taking away their Constitutional rights. I asked, which ones - no answer - now when we can see where Barack Insane Obama is taking the country - still don’t get a coherent answer from them .... in the meanwhile hundreds of people daily are scraping their Obama stickers off their cars.

Its a shame the report is not true, maybe a militia would target CNN for a while. The biased MSM is the greatest threat to our country.

let’s see, nationalizing the auto industry, banks, transportation and health care-— nope, no “socialism” or Marxism apparent

“: “There really is this kind of terrible fear, mixed with fury, about the idea that President Obama is somehow leading a kind of socialistic- you know, takeover of America.””

We have a POTUS who finances thugs and terrorists like SEIU and ACORN, and is good friends with a currency terrorist(Soros) and an American terrorist(Ayers). Why would anyone be worried??

L M A O !!

CNN is following Pelosi and Reid’s lead. They along with the US Congress declared war on the American people first via their DeathCare aka MengeleCare. Don’t fail to give Mengele Pelosi credit she is due!

They have standards? Sorry, couldn't resist. You're probably just not hanging out in all the wrong places.

So okay, this gets old.

There is, however, a solution.

Very simple.

Get some prominant conservative spokesnoids....the tea party guy..Dick Army. Tom Delay I’m thinking. Some think tanks...Heritage Foundation....like that. Assign some intern or such to go out and find a whole bunch of activity in militias of LEFT WING groups.

Send out press releases to the WSJ....hold press conferences, pound the drums. Now I understand that the assumption is that should actually BE left wing militias and left wingers, hey, aren’t noted for military bravery. But there’s a whole bunch of left wing shenanigans going on out there...go to prisons and find out how many extremist Muslims are being recruited in jails.

Point being, find the lone wolf and his two buddies determined to change the world so that a new green one will emerge. Somewhere out there is a Communist and a couple of Stalin wannabes...find them. Keep at it, keep sending press releases, hold press conferences.

In short, do the same thing. Soon the whole nonsense becomes background noise.

this is why CNN et al get away with this stuff. We who carry this country on our backs most times have better stuff to do but how about those two kids exposed those ACORN outlets?

It CAN be done.

I see they are zeroxing their montra. According to SPLC the militias are ALWAYS on the rise.

Several of my neighbors have been flying the “Don’t Tread on Me” flags lately. Sort of a nice trend in the neighborhood.
