Obama’s “Enemies” List
Friday, April 17th, 2009Enough of this nonsense already over the Department of Homeland Security’s assessment of the potential for violent hate groups to make a resurgence. It is sensible for law enforcement to be dilligent in considering potential threats where ever they may lurk. It’s just too darn bad that some extreme rightists have been and could continue to be a threat to the nation and its citizens, just as have left wing nuts and other extremists. And former soldiers have done some very bad deeds. Timothy McVeigh was a gulf war veteran. Even sniper John Muhammad was a veteran. Still, Janet Napolitano and the FBI itself say veterans and conservatives aren’t being “profiled.”
And to everyone hollering about surveillance of Tea Party attendees (which didn’t happen anywhere that I have seen) I say: where were you freedom lovers when anti-war marches were regularly video taped by police during the last administration.
And Obama certainly takes all types of terrorism seriously as evidenced by his focus on Afghanistan.
