Government Foils Skinhead Plot to Assassinate Obama [court records unsealed just before elections]

Skinheads planned to kill Obama and 102 others in Tennessee.

Federal agents have disrupted a plot to assassinate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate dozens of black students in Tennessee, the ATF said Monday. 

In court records unsealed Monday, federal agents said they disrupted plans to rob a gun store and target a predominantly African-American high school by two neo-Nazi skinheads. Agents said the skinheads did not identify the school by name. 

A source in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives told FOX News that the two skinheads, who were picked up in Crockett County, Tenn., were plotting to shoot 88 black students and decapitate 14 others described as non-whites. The source said officials believe the suspects were planning to attempt an assassination against Obama. 

The numbers 88 and 14 are symbolic in the white supremacist community. 

But officials could not describe how advanced or credible the plot was, nor could they say if they had contacted the Obama campaign. 

Jim Cavanaugh, special agent in charge of the Nashville field office for the ATF, said the suspects also sought to go on a national killing spree, with Obama as its final target.

According to the Obama - Ayers Doctrine and Liberal ideology in general - “its not their fault and they should be released”.

In fact Ayers wrote a book about it saying “crime is not the fault of the criminal” to which Obama gave a breathless endorsement, except for the part where Obama says he never knew Ayers and he was “just some guy in the neighborhood”.

Oh wait a minute, that doesn’t apply in this case based on skin color alone which is always the deciding factor on whether or not Justice is just in this nation, according to the Left.

In this case, they’ll just be added to the 25 million.

Is this overriding your talking heads channels as well?

As if this is a legitimate attempt on his life! It’s two guys planning some absurd mass murder spree and just happen to put Barack on the last on the list.

Not that these losers don’t need to be in jail, but honestly, they act like he had a bullet coming his way!

I am less than impressed with the story. Not legitimate at all. Just a couple of bozo’s. Big deal, who cares.

Now on the other hand, we have those on the Left planning for the deaths of at least 25 million American’s who disagree with the Left - and not a whisper out of the media.

Nice try Obama.

This is not going to distract the American people from your disdain for the Constitution and support of Marxist dogma.

Nice try though.

"Two white supremacists allegedly plotted to go on a national killing spree, shooting and decapitating black people and ultimately targeting Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama..."

When I heard "plot to assinate Obama," I was thinking Oswald...these guys wanted to dress in all white tuxedos and top hats and spray bullets...this is unfortunate, but it sounds more like a fantasy than a plot.

Even if this is legit, I'm afraid it won't be the last attempt on his life if he wins the election. He'll be a marked man, and if, God forbid, he does get murdered in office this country will see nationwide violence such as it has never seen before.

Another reason to NOT vote him into office.

Exactly. McCain and Palin need to keep plugging away at the redistribution of wealth and taxes.

The majority opinion here seems to be this is yet another effort by Obama freaks in the Federal law enforcement bureaucracy, i.e., the SS & ATF to sway voters towards Obama by making a bogus arrest. Also, I understand the arrested ones are druggies. Want to know what really happened? Some dopers who like to pose as bad guy Nazis were doing drugs one night at a friend’s house where a TV was playing Obama commercials and they started talking how they wanted Obama dead along with hundreds of blacks and so forth. Just BS druggie talk. One of those present was an informant with pending drug charges and needed something to give his bosses, the cops, so he repeated the drug fueled conversation. When the manure finally rolled into SS HQ, one or more SS Leftard supervisors saw an opportunity for pro-Obama propaganda just before the election and unsealed the court records today in order to blow off the air the Marxist story about Obama.

More desperate tactics by the Dramacrats. They’re obviously concerned about the undecideds moving towards McCain. Looks like they’re trying to shame whote voters into voting for Maobama: “if you don’t vote for him, you’re a racist skinhead”.

When I read these details of the alleged mass murder/assassination the first thing that popped into my mind was Bravo Sierra! Major BRAVO SIERRA! If these guys were really serious the last thing they’d do would be blowing their intentions all over town. Real assassins run silent and run deep until the victim is in the crosshairs.

FYI, those two are Dresie and Casie Williams, and were just two of the many subjects of a photo essay done in the early 1990's by photographer Roger Ballen, and were taken in the rural village of Western Transvaal, in apartheid South Africa.

For the record, the ruling colonial Dutch whites of South African were anything but liberal or democratic.

These guys are potential domestic terrorists - unlike Bill Ayers, who was a real domestic terrorist and who had a huge network of domestic terrorist friends.

They heard there wuz a cuppla openings in the teaching staff here:
