All the charges could be true or none of the charges could be true it doesn’t change what I believe or my commitment to this country. It doesn’t make those who would tie this broadly to all opposition of Obama’s agenda and less intellectually dishonest.

The authorities have a duty to arrest people who are making plans like this. That’s the end of the story there. There’s no reason on Earth to think this is the first step in some sort of coup.

When it gets to trial we'll see all of the evidence, but they clearly had cause for arrest. When a group threatens to kill police officers, as the news stories (on Fox, which I'm sure everyone here trusts), then the police cannot sit idly by.
