So what if it was confirmed by Malkin?

Did you read the report? The first line says "The DHS/Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) has no specific information that domestic rightwing terrorists are currently planning acts of violence."

In January, the same DHS office released a report titled "Leftwing extremists likely to increase use of cyber attacks over the coming decade."

Now that is balanced reporting.

BTW - when did the DHS become a home to Liberals?

MIAC Report Labeling Ron Paul Supporters Domestic Terrorists Rescinded.

Whohoo! Libertarians aren't terrorists anymore.

[scottyt]

and they have no specific info on terrorists from other nations either.

the confirmed by malkin part was just to say it is real

i did not say it was a home to libs, i said it more to be funny and i should have noted that.

but dhs is run by obama now

and they say things like

Paralleling the current national climate, rightwing extremists during the
1990s exploited a variety of social issues and political themes to increase group visibility
and recruit new members. Prominent among these themes were the militia movement’s
opposition to gun control efforts, criticism of free trade agreements (particularly those
with Mexico), and highlighting perceived government infringement on civil liberties as
well as white supremacists’ longstanding exploitation of social issues such as abortion,
inter-racial crimes, and same-sex marriage. During the 1990s, these issues contributed to
the growth in the number of domestic rightwing terrorist and extremist groups and an
increase in violent acts targeting government facilities, law enforcement officers, banks,
and infrastructure sectors.

so it implies those who are against same sex marriage, abortion, gun control etc you are a right wing extremist, at least thats how i read it. its trying to demonize the conservative side by naming conservative beliefs and saying they are the same as right wing extremists

I saw the story on the Huffington Post much earlier and read the original.

but dhs is run by obama now

Personally?

its trying to demonize the conservative side by naming conservative beliefs and saying they are the same as right wing extremists

And some times a spade is spade.

To the rest of the world, many of those positions are reactionary, not conservative.

Ok, after reading that I decided it was too stupid to be a joke, so it must be legit. I quess anyboby who has the slightest belief in the constutution and the first two amendment is a rightwing extremist.


gotta admit, this administation has good reason to be concerned, even those who voted for this new experiment are having serious second thoughts, and when you have active military calling talk shows to discuss the oath they took to protect the constitution against all threats foreign & domestic and feel that there is a domestic threat ???.........somethngs wrong

[PBzeer]

Evidently no one notices the irony in telling a bunch of paranoid wackos they really have a reason to be paranoid.

The fact that there is nothing in the report that anyone who follows current events wouldn't already be aware of, gives it the appearance of being based on political bias, rater than actual intelligence (in the info gathering sense). Shoot, I could have told them the same thing (at half the cost), though I wouldn't have tried to equate the 90's with now, since the only real similarities are a Dem administration and Congress. All the report really accomplishes is give the wacko's more fuel to throw on the fire. Which doesn't strike me as very wise.

I particularly like the part where us right wing wack-jobs are defined by our placing state and local government over the federal government in supremacy. Where ever could we have gotten such a notion.

that's what happens when the school system replaces US History with How to use a condom and history books with the Huffington Post

Uh, don't pat yourself on the back too hard....it might hurt.

If the shoe fits, wear it, but I suppose that most conservatives don't think of themselves this way.....

on the other hand.....

Maybe it will allow you to have compassion and see how we progressives have been treated since the 50's. Look it up, friend. We were (and still were, as of the Bush years) put on lists for anti-war activities and peace demonstrations.

Let me repeat that. We were (and are still) put on lists for attending demonstrations which attempt to stop madness like our attacking of Iraq, etc.......

I'm sure you have been weeping for all of those 40 years about everyones else's "rights"....so please cry me a river that some nut jobs are being put on a list....

Oh, do you APPROVE of right wing nut jobs plotting violence against people or the government? Let us know, please.
