If they try another Waco,
they won’t have to worry so much about 50 men in the “compound”

as much as the 10,000 snipers in the hills surrounding that compound.

Southern Poverty Law Center is a bunch of communist hacks. They send screeching faxes that ABC takes as gospel. Every one of their faxes says the same thing, but now they have Obama in the mix. I already knew who sent the media the fax and that the words “track hate groups” would be included or insinuated. That’s how predictable these lunatics are. This is psychological warfare.

"I don't think I could take every freaking school, road, and park not named for MLK being renamed for him."

It is one way to identify the violent and high crime areas of any city.

Chief Heathcare Advisor to Obama and brother of Rahm Emanuel.

"Services provided to individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens are not basic and should not be guaranteed. An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia."

I don't know if they have or have not actually looked at Nazi techniques. What I do know is that THIS statement above is made by the chief healthcare advisor to the President of The United States, the person who is pushing this legislation harder than anyone.

This man, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel is the brother of Rahm Emanuel. This is a guy, (Rahm Emanuel) who when election results were coming in was reputed to have taken a steak knife and repeatedly stabbed it into a table while yelling out the names of opponents and organizations, such as "McCain...DEAD!" (stab) "Palin...DEAD!" (stab) and so on.

Okay, hahaha, that is funny juvenile humor which I can laugh at in the correct context. Turn the tables on this..what if it had been Rove doing this? (That in and of itself is completely laughable, but you get the point) The point is, these guys are brothers, Ezekiel and Rahm Emanuel. They both fell close to the same tree, one is an immoral, corrupt whisperer in the ear of Obama, and, well...so is the other one.

The only problem is, one is whispering stuff like "...throw Israel under the bus..." and the other one is whispering "An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia."

We will hear liberals say (and probably him as well) that his words were taken out of context, but I read the paper Ezekiel Emanuel wrote, and the context is all too clear. If they want to push concepts such as "The Complete Lives System", they cannot complain if people compare them to the Nazis, who had their own methods of dealing with the vulnerable and defenseless in society.

As I said in another thread, it is a disquieting fact that the people who are crafting this legislation, beginning with the person who is pushing it the hardest, have no problem with the concept of aborting a 8 3/4 month baby that unexpectedly refuses to die, then leaving it gasping out its short life on a steel table in a linen closet without even a comforting hand to let it know that its short spark of life touched someone.

I am not making it into an abortion issue. But the point remains that when we surrender our choices to legislation created by those people, we all can be that doomed child.

Check out the prisons - filled with dems.

Check out our history of burned cities and destruction - all done by dems.

Cop killer worshipers like Bill Ayers - the lowlife who dedicated his book to all people in the United States who had killed a police officer - and a friend of Obama is a dem.

Ayers wife - a unrepentant terrorist is also a dem.

Union goons are dems.

Crips and Bloods are dems.

Pornographers like Larry Flynt who was accused of molesting his own daughter is a dem - and a powerful one.

And these liberal elite pigs worry about us? Gimme a break.

Dems are the goons and liars.

This is bull shit --- one more lie.

The only thing we can assume from their evil paranoia is that they're planning on killing one of ours - because they always accuse us of what they're doing

After reading quite a few of the comments listed here, an interesting thought (well, interesting to me anyway) popped into my head.

The propaganda ministry is preparing the leftist base for the assassination of Obama. With the probable destruction of the demoRat majority in Congress, Obama might be more valuable to them dead than he is alive. So they prepare the radical left for the coming event by airing numerous charges like the one in question, and when the time is right, they do the deed.

Remember, klintoon's ratings were in the toilet until he had the BATF blow up the Federal building in Oklahoma City. From that moment on, he had a positive approval rating.

No, muslim terrorist groups are Obama’s allies. He has nothing to fear from them, he is with them...

Didn't you get the memo? Janet Napolitano said we couldn't call them terrorists anymore, us right wing extremists are now the terrorist threat.

There’s an awful lot of news outlets giving an awful lot of space to an awfully small news item from an awfully biased group.

All of these “militias are rising” stories all just rehash the single bigoted SPLC news item. None actually get out there and investigate the alleged issue themselves.

There’s a theory that the media is making a big deal of this in an attempt to prep people for something, kinda like what culminated in OK City (maybe not a conspiracy to make it happen, but to goad crazies into making it a statistical certainty, and to rile the public to turn against the Right when it happens).

And this threat has been confirmed by doing a quick search on Google for the anecdotes they want to find. Yeah, that’s Homeland Security at its finest.

Sounds like the media trying to change the subject to me.

Yep. They're pulling out all the stops. ZerØ is auguring in, so the focus, and fear needs to be shifted back onto their opponent. Make stuff up, by the time it comes out to be untrue, or not as serious as advertised, then the damage is done, and we end up with nationalized/socialized Marxist health care.

No sane conservative would want anything to happen to the poser. The resulting martyrdom would make what happened after JFK look like a school production. We are talking about the Messiah here ya know.

Oddly enough, I wouldn't put it past the Dems to stage such a tragedy to further their own agenda. So yea, I worry about his safety, but the more dangerous group to watch is the Demorat party.

Wouldn't put it past the left to fake an assassination attempt to help Obama overcome the opposition of most of the citizens to his Marxist programs

Dunno about that. The "insurance policy" theory requires that #2 be much "worse" than #1. He's starting to look preferable.

Thing is, history shows such an event would NOT be perpetrated by the Right; such atrocities are the exclusive domain of the Left - and I just don't see yetok maybe I do see that the Hard Left is getting so peeved that they may do it to defend their cause. Camille Paglia's recent scathing summary of his failings might persuade a Lefty to do it - and play the martyrdom card to boot. Ugh.

I believe it is the SPLC trying to stir up some more (Anti- White) sentiment among the minorities. This communist front organization purports that there is a klansmen behind every hooptey in da hood.
They also fabricate info concerning the militia movement to suit their marxist agenda. To the SPLC every law abiding armed caucasian male or female is a terrorist and belongs to an alleged militia movement.
The SPLC clan is the true haters and instigators in America, who thrive off ignorance/misinformation.
Molon Labe,

Who are the experts they are talking about?

Good question. I intended to ask the same question in my post since the article didn't identify any of their "experts" other than through association (i.e. Southern Poverty Law Center, Secret Service, etc.).

We must all protect BO as well as we can. We can't let that bastard become a martyr. It's in the best interests of this country that he not become a martyr.

Besides, imagine the years and year of wall to wall coverage of him if he were martyred. We'd never be able to watch TV. So, fellow citizens, protect BO and stop or report to proper authorities any plots that you might run across. He must go quietly out of office at the end of his term.

Unfortunately, some crazed leftist or jihadist will probably do something and conservatives will be blamed. :(

I have yet to hear of a single right winger who wants this turkey “offed.”

I have, on a website we all know and love. For some reason the frequency of this seems to have gone down with Obama's poll numbers and perhaps with the rise of the birther thing. FR is pretty good about deleting the more explicit comments. But there was quite a bit of talk about how good it would be if Obama was involved in an "accident", etc.

Anyone with an ounce of sense doesn’t want him becoming a martyr to the “cause”

Not everyone has an ounce of sense.

Of course ABC is not capable of doing even the most basic of fact checking anymore. Whatever the Obama Administration tells them to write..they write. It’s pathetic!

No change in web traffic at the KKK. A simple search of Alexa proves this is all lies by SPLC.

I agree. Impeached, forced to resign in shame, or leaving quietly at the end of his term.
