Soon Big Brother really will be watching you: Using the excuse of allegedly being overwhelmed by "racist" death threats against the first black president, the Obama Administration is in the process changing the dual mission of the U.S. Secret Service, which also investigates certain financial crimes, to a single "protective" mission with President Obama the focus of a new Praetorian Guard. Of course, the real deal here is the creation of an American version of the STASI (former East German secret police) that will be charged with the suppression of all critics of Obama and the government.

I wonder if the “artists” who wrote about different ways to assassinate President Bush and actors who suggested torture and execution were also investigated. If so, they would have been equally strained.

We live in a screwed up world when the assasination of Obama will be viewed as a hate crime.

Maybe the Secret Service should focus on real threats and stop harassing insignificant loudmouths. If they really want to be an "elite revolutionary guard" they should apply for exit visas to Iran.

the unprecedented number of death threats against President Obama,

The absurdity of this from the same set of hypocrites that defended movies made about assassinating Bush is amazing.

There’s an assumption here that our leaders should not be threatened; I reject this assumption, if leaders do not want to be threatened then they should act Justly.

Jefferson, I believe, noted that when people fear their government there is tyranny, but when governments fear their people there is liberty. What could make government more afraid than the very real possibility of the killing of leaders who refuse to abide by the Constitution? (If a second Magna Carta incident is needed, then so be it.)

a rise in racist hate groups”

####

Like:

- The Obama Administration.

- ACORN.

- The Congressional Black Caucus.

- The NFL Players’ Association

- La Raza

- CAIR.

But of course, the Boston Globe is referring to those 8 or 9 “Neo-Nazi skinheads” that are utterly terrorizing America.

Just another baloney article by the GLOBE (owned by the NYTIMES)setting the agenda in case something bad can be pinned on the right.

I would not put it past Soros and Co. to underwrite an “incident”...then pin it on Beck or Limbaugh.

Can see it coming.

Since anyone that exercises free speech against Obama, me included, is now classified as “rising racist hate groups” I can understand their dilemma. Perhaps if the fascist statists gave up on their plans to destroy America, there would be fewer outraged citizens.
At the same time, perhaps they are jumping away from the “investigating” financial crimes because the investigations keep leading back to DemonRAT politicians involvement?

The Southern Poverty Law Center says that antigovernment militias and white supremacist groups have strengthened in recent years, responding to an increasingly diverse population and what they see as an expanding government.

Is there a non-left, non-progressive organization that is the equivalent of SPLC that can be used to call out all the left extremist groups?

The unprecedented number of death threats against President Obama, a rise in racist hate groups, and a new wave of antigovernment fervor threaten to overwhelm the US Secret Service, according to government officials and reports, raising new questions about the 144-year-old agency’s overall mission.

The Secret Service is tracking a far broader range of possible threats to the nation’s leaders, the officials said, even as it also investigates financial crimes such as counterfeiting as part of its original mandate.

So they are tracking a "broader range" of threats, and, lo and behold, they found more of them?

My needle on my BS meter just snapped off.
