Napolitano Ditches Dumb 'Terrorism' Report

After defending the controversial DHS report that labeled all conservatives, libertarians, and returning veterans as potential right-wing terrorists umpteen times, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano quietly dropped the report in the circular file.

That was the report, apparently inspired by the paranoid conspiracy theorists of the radical left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center, that told police to keep an eye on people opposed to enlarging the redistributive state and spreading the wealth around.

Do ya'll think we are now off her list?
RIIIIIGHT!
Well, in the words of the western singer, "when Ms. Liberty starts shakin' her fist...we gonna' light you up like the fourth of July!"

The report served its purpose--we know what they're thinking now, and it ain't pretty.

I read the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Report with horror and agree with the Texican that "pulling" the report from the Internet does not signify that the DHS has changed its viewpoint one iota. The removal of the report from the public eye reveals that the Homeland Secretary was politically embarrassed by the publicity and the justifiable outrage generated by the Report.

This unclassified document warns local and state law enforcement about the potential breeding grounds of "right wing extremists" among the pro-life movement, who believe that the constitutionally protected right to life begins at conception; among limited government advocates, who stand for wiser government spending and less wasteful taxation; and among returning military veterans, who risk their lives to protect our constitutional rights.

Ironic, that the report names as potential terrorists the same military veterans who are serving on the forefront of the battle against the real terrorists--those found on foreign battlefields--the same terrorists who brazenly attacked America on 9/11 and killed 3000 innocent people. (Recall, this event created the impetus for the formation of the Department of Homeland Security. ) Ironic, that law enforcement officials, who received this Report , include many patriotic veterans equally defamed by this document.

Perhaps DHS should issue a report warning America about the dangers posed by "left wing extemists". This group of terrorists include hate-mongering "pastors" like Jeremiah Wright, who preach for the downfall of the United States of America. This group also includes domestic terrorists like Bill Ayers, who killed police officers and never served a much deserved prison sentence. "Left wing terrorists" also should include agents of communist "change" , such as members of Acorn, who are being investigated for voter registration fraud in numerous states and who are preparing to use federal TARP money to jerrymander voting districts during the next U.S. Census and swing the 2010 mid-term elections.

And let's not forget the greatest left wing terrorists of all: the pro-death abortion advocates, who believe that an innocent baby can legally have its brain sucked out of the base of its skull during its partial delivery. Let us not also forget to include a former Illinois State Senator, who supported a bill that would have permitted children, who survived a botched abortion, to be left to suffer and die.

J Kulits, excellent post.

Janet Napolitano probably ditched the report because she wants to replace David Souter.
