Yep, everyone is putting blame on Napalitono, but this is all Obambi!

Folks, we need to stop waiting for our sellout ‘representatives’ to do anything about anything. It is up to us to organize, first with passive resistance and then, if needed, aggressive resistance.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

Why hasn’t any conservative source come out with a mirror image report detailing the threat from “left wing radicals”?

Granted, a lot of them have been appointed to the administration, but this doesn’t make them any less threatening.

The one change I would make is that they are *not* threatening to the government. They are threatening to the Constitution.

[raptor29]

An exceptional post.

[Interesting Times]

Ping.

[kalee]

I am glad to see Burr on that list.

This Timothy McVeigh stuff has to come to an end. I spent 4 years in the military I guess I was absent on the day they taught us how to use fertilizer, fuel oil and rent-a-truck weaponry. 'Cuz I don't remember that class at all.

I must be an extremist as I am pro-life, pro-second amendment, member of the NRA, USPSA, IPSC and have a tendency to write my senators and congressman when I want them to know my viewpoint on legislation and to top it all off I have an FBI file.  Of course it was because I was taught how to build the warheads atop the Minuteman II and III ICBMs and threw 3 of them per year at Johnson Island in the Pacific. 

If I was an extremist as Janet says, I'm sure I could have created a bigger hole than McVeigh.

>We can’t let this stand folks! If it does basically Obama can round all of us and hold us for 6 months legally for no reason other than we disagree with him!

To quote J. Jonah Jameson:
“Slander is spoken! In print it’s libel.”

Do I, as a combat veteran (OIF 07-08), have the legal standing to take this report as libel and have the authors and authorizors (DHS head) tried in court?

{If the USSC’s attitude toward the people having legal standing in regards to concerns over the constitutional eligibility of the president is any indication then I think not.}

This is DISGUSTING. Every single Republican congressperson should be shouting and screaming at this outrage.

They are there to represent us. Some representatives!

There, fixed.

[patton]

Actually, it was part of training in the 80’s.

[HattonFarmer]

Said ‘round up’ will be bloody. No brag, just fact. Bring it on, lets get this over with so we can go back to being a constitutional republic.

[HawaiianGecko]

Why?

[patton]

“Field expedient cratering charge”, used in constructing tank traps.

It was part of infantry training.

[HawaiianGecko]

Thanks.  That's interesting.

[devistate one four]

That’s a fact. Tea parties were just a shot accros the bow.

[capydick]

Only 7?

Those spineless AssHats need to bring a resolution to the floor TODAY!! denouncing this document.

Oh wait - they're still on District Work Period (Easter vacation) - wouldnt want to mess up their time off.

[cayuga]

It didn’t last long.

[raptor29]

Yeah, great, isn’t it? But I guess we should just focus on sending some darn fine letters and faxes to our representatives, because that will turn things around. It’s worked so well in the past.

Our side better wake up, fast.

[ChocChipCookie]

That’s right. Where’s the proof?? I have conservative friends who talk about “right wing extremists” like they’re an everyday occurrence. One of them tried to dissuade me from looking into a move to Idaho since it’s full of “right wing extreme groups.” Sheesh. I’m going to start asking for proof.

[bmwcyle]
