Amazingly white house spokesman used terrorism to describe worrying about americans but the word has been banned for describing foreigners
Federal agency warns of radicals on right9-page report sent to policeBy Audrey HudsonTuesday, April 14, 2009The Department of Homeland Security is warning law enforcement officials about a rise in "rightwing extremist activity," saying the economic recession, the election of America's first black president and the return of a few disgruntled war veterans could swell the ranks of white-power militias.A footnote attached to the report by the Homeland Security Office of Intelligence and Analysis defines "rightwing extremism in the United States" as including not just racist or hate groups, but also groups that reject federal authority in favor of state or local authority."It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single-issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration," the warning says.The White House has distanced itself from the analysis. When asked for comment on its contents, White House spokesman Nick Shapiro said, "The President is focused not on politics but rather taking the steps necessary to protect all Americans from the threat of violence and terrorism regardless of its origins. He also believes those who serve represent the best of this country, and he will continue to ensure that our veterans receive the respect and benefits they have earned."The nine-page document was sent to police and sheriff's departments across the United States on April 7 under the headline, "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment."It says the federal government "will be working with its state and local partners over the next several months" to gather information on "rightwing extremist activity in the United States."The joint federal-state activities will have "a particular emphasis" on the causes of "rightwing extremist radicalization."Homeland Security spokeswoman Sara Kuban said the report is one in an ongoing series of assessments by the department to "facilitate a greater understanding of the phenomenon of violent radicalization in the U.S."...
WHOAAAAAAAA. NELLLLLLLLLLLIE.So let me get this right......People who are not citizens and want to do us harm can no longer have the word terrorist associated with their name but and American citizen can? Oh fuck!
...INTERVIEW WITH HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY JANET NAPOLITANO'Away From the Politics of Fear'[3/16/2009]Janet Napolitano, 51, is President Obama's new Homeland Security Secretary. She spoke with SPIEGEL about immigration, the continued threat of terrorism and the changing tone in Washington.SPIEGEL: Madame Secretary, in your first testimony to the US Congress as Homeland Security Secretary you never mentioned the word "terrorism." Does Islamist terrorism suddenly no longer pose a threat to your country?Napolitano: Of course it does. I presume there is always a threat from terrorism. In my speech, although I did not use the word "terrorism," I referred to "man-caused" disasters. That is perhaps only a nuance, but it demonstrates that we want to move away from the politics of fear toward a policy of being prepared for all risks that can occur....
Hmmm, sounds a little like communism to me. You know the part where they don't want you to speak out against your overlords who are now in power or do something to move the people to vote them out.
Someone needs to make a t-shirt:PROUD RIGHT WING EXTREMIST! With a picture of a gun and a Bible and the US Flag.Maybe even the Flag of Texas - for once, our Himbo Barbie doll of a governor has done something right - he signed that resolution saying that the feds needed to back the fuck off of states rights and respect the 10th AmendmentI'd buy one for every member of my extended family. Hell, I'd give them as Christmas gifts.
Obviously you're another one of those patriotic yet bitter, gun-owner Americans who cling to their God and and religion...not unlike myself.
Yes, I am... and???
If political dissent is patriotic, as our Vice President stated not too long ago; why is it that this very thing is so concerning to our government now?We're just a hop, skip, and jump away from armed goons hauling people away in the dead of night.
Neapolitano, or whatever the fuck her name is, is back peddling now. Wants to meet with the head of the American Legion to try and smooth things over.I'd tell her to go fuck a grizzly bear.
That's just sick!!! Have you seen that woman? All I can say about this mess is that their playbook has been used before... Stalin, Hitler, Castro, Chavez, Obama...
