[Constitutions Grandchild]

I tend to agree with the quote you cite from the piece. I read the entire declassified version and found little I could argue with. We do have a very fluid situation economically in the U.S. right now, people are hurting and emotionally strung out, veterans have come back with underlying emotional problems in the past, we do have white supremacists and other hate groups in America who prey on the weak and down-hearted, pro-life advocates have bombed and murdered abortionist. There was a disclaimer at the top that they have detected no threats from any group.

What's under the surface of the report would scare the be-Jesus out of me if it contains what I think it contains — the seeds of destruction. I don't plan on being here, but it could be a problem for some others not similarly disposed.

What we really need is a document that lays out the intentions of the 0bama regime. From ACORN, to 0bama’s Civilian Defense Force, to controlling the census, to taking over private companies, to taking over the internet, to the Fairness Doctrine, to targeting veterans, etc. etc.

Interesting.

Personally, I found PLENTY to be argue with and to be alarmed about. That they would preface thier assesment with such a disclaimer adds all the more reason to suspect the underlying bad-faith intent of the document:

"(U//LES) The DHS/Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) has no specific information that domestic rightwing* terrorists are currently planning acts of violence, but rightwing extremists may be gaining new recruits by playing on their fears about several emergent issues. The economic downturn and the election of the first African American president present unique drivers for rightwing radicalization and recruitment."

In other words, "we have zero evidence that this is occurring but we should redouble our surveillance anyhow"

It may leave you confident of our government but it leaves me cold.
