(CNN) -- Right-wing extremist groups may be using the recession and the election of the nation's first African-American president to recruit members, a Department of Homeland Security report contends.
Though the nine-page report said it has "no specific information that domestic right-wing terrorists are currently planning acts of violence," it said real-estate foreclosures, unemployment and tight credit "could create a fertile recruiting environment for right-wing extremists and even result in confrontations between such groups and government authorities similar to those in the past."
The report, prepared in coordination with the FBI and published April 7, was distributed to federal, state and local law enforcement officials under the title "Right-wing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment."
And some say Obama can't get Term Limits Repealed. 3/4 is not alot when you make the opposition look like thugs.

One reason that right-wing extremism is on the rise is
the “center” now defines anyone who believes in the
Constitution as an extremist.
Are you certain that you are not repeating what someone said in 1930’s Germany? Just asking.
Did the media report that left wing extremism was on the rise when G.W. Bush was president?
I would like to know who assigned this report to be written and why. There is definitely more here than meets the eye.
“Are you certain that you are not repeating what someone said in 1930’s Germany? Just asking.”
How so?
I don't worry about us. I worry about idiots like that jerk in Pittsburgh who murdered three police officers and was quickly identified by 'friends' as afraid of Obama and a McCain supporter when he was, in reality, a neo-Nazi.
These socialists will use many tactics against us to convince others we are dangerous. The socialists will do anything including mixing among us the most unstable minds filled with hate.
While we need to stay calm, we also need to be vigilant against agent provacateurs.
Some Jews and other “enemies of the state” were preaching calm in Nazi Germany. Some right up to the midnight knock on the door.
Homeland Security needs to do something about the left wing extremists who have occupied DC, that is where the danger lies.
Just another crisis I’m sure Rahm or whatever the hec his name is would love to create and not let go to waste. That guy is pure evil.
“While we need to stay calm, we also need to be vigilant against agent provacateurs.”
Pretty much what I was saying. Yes, the left will use incidents like Pittsburgh, Oakland, etc., as I stated in my original post.
Jeez. I sure hope so. We could use fewer milquetoasts and more people with spines.
“Some Jews and other “enemies of the state” were preaching calm in Nazi Germany. Some right up to the midnight knock on the door.”
The Jews were disarmed before that happened. We must stay vigilant. The flashpoint for the Jews came and went without them even noticing.
The left controls the Public Schools and they know this is ground zero.
All freedom loving patriots should take aim at that injustice before anything else.
Projection. What ever the left is saying is bad or dangerous about conservatives is what the left is actually doing.
Isn’t it possible that this whole business is a red herring being orchestrated by the FBI? Certainly, the “right wing” is an easier target to hit than the potential Muslim terrorists and their fellow-travellers in our midst. Has the FBI shown public concern on the movement of Somalis between the USA and Somalia? Of course not, it would not be PC. Has it provided an overview of the radicals within the Muslim Student Assn? Of course not, ditto. Has it provided a study on the Muslim Brotherhood activity in the USA? Etc.
Exactly.
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is a natural manure.”
Thomas Jefferson in a 1787 letter to William S. Smith
"...In fact, the Obama administration in January did issue a warning about left-wing extremists. Both reports were initiated during the administration of former President George W. Bush"
CNN is a threat to our security.
