Ping to Jonah Goldberg's Take on Napolitano's Wing Nut Homeland Security " Right Wing Extremist " Memo.

( Goldberg is the author of " Liberal Fascism.")

I feel familiarly unsafe with another government security agency run by a bitter old dyke named Janet.

The Extremism and Radicalization Branch of the Homeland Environment Threat Analysis Division of the Department of Homeland Security

You've got to be pulling my leg, no one in their right mind (outside of Soviet Russia) would dream up a name like that!

They never document anything. If they try; it’s a lie.

Well, as Napolitano herself put it: "I was the United States attorney for Arizona in the '90s when Timothy McVeigh bombed the Murrow building in Oklahoma City and unfortunately he was a vet -- that's where he got his training."

Training for what? He went to Indonesia, as a civilian, to get training from Muslim fundamentalists on making ANFO bombs.

But the report also outlines several motivations DHS claims leads to becoming a "right-wing extremist." Did Timothy McVeigh claim any of those motivations for his actions?

• Abortion? No.
• Gay marriage? No.
• State's rights? No.
• Taxes? No.
• A black President? No.
• Gun control? No.
• Illegal aliens and open borders? No.

McVeigh didn't cite any of those issues as motivating factors. And he didn't get his bomb making training in the military. Ms. Napolitano, in spite of being a US attorney on the McVeigh case, seems to have remained more ignorant about T. McVeigh than your average couch potato with a TV set.

She's going to be a great Homeland Security Secretary! /s

I read the DHS report last week. I am currently in the process of re-reading Atlas Shrugged.

The DHS report reminds me of the "reports" in the book condemning Rearden Metal (from the book) without actually saying anything, and with no mention of any factual basis.

The DHS report could have been written by the same spineless nameless fictional bureaucrat as in the novel.

There are no objective facts, only opinion. Atlas Shrugged; p215.

Have you heard his before? How about this one from a few years ago:

The nature of the evidence is irrelevant; it's the seriousness of the charge that matters. Anita Hill, 1991.

Now we have Janet Napolitano making serious charges, while presenting no evidence to support them; and even admitting that she has none.

I seem to recall another Janet of dubious sexual orientation making charges for which the evidence was thin at best. The difference was that she was able to back up her position with tanks. It happened in a little town called Waco. Facts did not matter to her either.

I guess this gets me on their list...

How long before this Janet gets some tanks?

What of the “Left-wing” Extremists? Where is the ACLU calling for balance in the witch hunt?
