			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The news is really unbelievable these days. All that I once thought were core American values and traditions are now being washed away in a sea of propaganda and political attacks from the radical Left, which now rules supreme and knows it. The Left in power is now waging an ideological war not only against conservatives, but any dissenting Americans who get in their way. Worst of all, they are using the full machinery of the government and their Lefty media lapdogs to do it all, and in the same fashion as Ahmadinejad&#8217;s government is demonizing the Green protesters in Iran.</p>
<p><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/simpson-8-28.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-213446" title="simpson-8-28" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/simpson-8-28.jpg" alt="" width="305" height="228" /></a><br />
It is chilling to witness, in the United States of America of all places. Civil political discourse is a thing of the past. You cannot oppose ObamaCare without being a swastika-waving corporate Nazi stooge. Never mind the fact that no one will tell us exactly where all the hospitals, doctors, and nurses to treat 50 million new patients will magically materialize from, or how it will all be paid for.<br />
<span id="more-212846"></span><br />
Likewise, you cannot oppose the draconian Cap-and-Tax bill without being a Global Warming heretic on the order of a Holocaust denier. Never mind the frost and record summer lows in my home state of New Hampshire or record cold temperatures worldwide. And you can&#8217;t oppose any of President Obama&#8217;s policies without being a racist. In short, every political issue these days is being taken far too personally by the petty tyrants of the Left, and made into ideological battlefields against any and all American citizens who stand in the way.</p>
<p>Also greatly disturbing are statements from our new FCC &#8216;Diversity&#8217; Chief Mark Lloyd, a black radical Communist who has been caught on film praising Hugo Chavez&#8217; stifling clampdown on Venezuela TV and radio stations as effective government media regulation policy. Mr. Lloyd also seeks to fine broadcasters 100% of their operating budget if they don&#8217;t meet certain &#8220;diversity&#8221; criteria, in effect instantly bankrupting them. One way of putting conservative talk radio out of business, I guess.</p>
<p>Worst of all is the double standard on Brownshirt-like violence and intimidation. You could start with the vague Republican platform-covering DHS report of April 14th (just in time for the Teabagger Parties), which even DHS civil liberties lawyers opposed. You could then move on to the three racist Black Panther Party poll watcher thugs in Philly who committed what Bartle Bull, a Jim Crow South poll observer, called in his affidavit &#8220;the worst voter intimidation I&#8217;ve ever seen&#8221; receive Get-Out-of Terrorizing-White-Voters-Free cards, courtesy of Obama&#8217;s and Eric Holder&#8217;s Injustice Department.</p>
<p>Then you could wrap it all up with the racial slandering and beating of Kenneth Gladney, which the SEIU thugs who beat him and their bosses tried to turn around and blame on him, despite damning video of the event. For the icing on the ideological cake, a young Democratic activist smashes up the windows of a Democratic Party office in Denver to the tune of $11,000.00, yet that damage is still being blamed by Democrats on ObamaCare protesters despite the facts even they know to be true.</p>
<p>I am a service veteran of the Cold War. I remember very distinctly what it was we were fighting vis-a-vis the Soviets: a power-mad totalitarian state based on a rigid ideology that crushed its own people underfoot, branded any and all dissenters as counter-revolutionaries, and used the propaganda machinery of PRAVDA and TASS to make sure the enemies of the state knew exactly who they were. As I&#8217;m sure many CIA career employees are feeling right now, given the Left&#8217;s and the Injustice Department&#8217;s political persecution of them of late. I guess ACLU papparazzi outing agents to Gitmo terrorists ain&#8217;t no big deal like Valerie Plame, huh? Since their cause is so just?</p>
<p>When a Lefty pundit like Chris Matthews talks about using sodium pentothal to get to the truth on an ideological matter from Obama&#8217;s political opponents, I&#8217;d normally consider that pure Lefty insanity. But given all the other factors in play, I have to wonder: just how serious is he being? Then there&#8217;s the President&#8217;s plan to created a new civilian national defense army as powerful as our military. For what purpose? Who will lead that army? The New Black Panther Party, given the bangup job they did at the polls in Philly last year? And for which they&#8217;ve been cleared to provide &#8220;security&#8221; for again? Or the SEIU Purpleshirts, who have already proven they can handle reprobate ObamaCare protesters?</p>
<p>Scary stuff, people. Lefties may have howled during the Bushitler years, but never did the Bush government, or any other for that matter, take such an active role in demonizing the minority party, or actively work to suppress freedom of speech and expression through intimidation as ours is today. Michael Moore and Al Franken were free to rant to the skies. Randy Rhodes of Air America even simulated Bush&#8217;s assassination on the air. Yet Rush Limbaugh says he wants Obama&#8217;s policies to fail, and liberal Democrats in Congress start a petition against him.</p>
<p>Even worse, Obama himself establishes a political campaign against Rush, a private citizen, from within the Oval Office itself, with the full resources, power and authority of the White House. Lastly, you have Patrick Courrielche <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/pcourrielche/2009/08/25/the-national-endowment-for-the-art-of-persuasion-patrick-courrielche/">informing us</a> of the NEA co-opting artists to promote controversial Obama legislation and policies through the arts, courtesy of we taxpayers who fund NEA. Had Mr. Courrielche not blown the whistle on that situation here at Big Hollywood, who would know about it? It begs the question: What else don&#8217;t we know about that&#8217;s going on behind our backs?</p>
<p>Given all that has transpired since President Obama&#8217;s and the Left&#8217;s ascendancy to supreme power in America, I&#8217;ll dare say it. I&#8217;m with Rush. If these are all what Obama&#8217;s policies are, I want them to fail, too. Miserably. I also have a name for what the Left is doing in all the above: un-American. I don&#8217;t know about you people, but I&#8217;m going to keep my eyes wide open for as long as the Left is running the show. Goes back to that eternal vigilance being the price of liberty thing.</p>
<p>As I stood on the deck of the aircraft carrier USS Midway twenty-five years ago, I was fully aware of the enemy we had been confronting since the end of WWII. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would be fighting a Cold War at home a quarter-century later, and against that very same rigid Marxist ideology. But that is where we find ourselves today. And our Cold War at home must be fought as the old one was: tooth and nail. Go to your town halls and Tea Parties in force. Sign petitions. Speak out when you see something amiss. Evil flourishes when good men do nothing. And I see far too many evils flourishing today to sit silently on the sidelines.</p>
<p>Our very democracy and way of life is at stake here. Is there any greater battle worth fighting?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m tired of hiding it. Everybody knows anyway. So it&#8217;s time to come clean, just like the Klan hoods I&#8217;ve got spinning in the dryer as we speak. It&#8217;s time for the Neanderthal knuckle-dragging, open mouth-breathing, racist, sexist, Klan and Timothy McVeigh-loving Montana militia member gun nut conservative Republican religious zealot in me to be set free. Repression is a bitch, and so am I.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/07/redneck1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-183230 aligncenter" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/07/redneck1.jpg" alt="" width="327" height="213" /></a></p>
<p>I go to bed full of hate and wake up the same.  I hate blacks, Hispanics, gays, women, abortion doctors, liberals, Lefties, Democrats, you name &#8216;em, I hate &#8216;em if they&#8217;re not like me. I especially hate President Obama for being black. Just ask Janeane Garofalo, although being a Stalinist Socialist doesn&#8217;t help Obama&#8217;s cause any with me. Fact is, Obama <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jtsimpson/2009/04/29/what-if-president-obama-were-a-republican/">could be a GOP</a> Michael Steele <a href="http://www.google.com/#hl=en&amp;q=michael+steele+uncle+tom&amp;fp=1&amp;cad=b">Uncle Tom</a>, and I&#8217;d still hate him even more than liberals hate Steele. Skin color trumps all. Thank God I was born the right color, or I&#8217;d probably kill myself. Wait, the hoods are dry! Be right back.<span id="more-182706"></span></p>
<p>Where was I? Oh, yeah. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065916/">Joe</a> is my hero and role model, Archie Bunker a distant second, Ted Nugent a close third. I have posters of all of them lining my walls, alongside such conservative Republican heroes as Dick Cheney, George W. Bush, Richard Nixon, Adolf Hitler and Darth Vader.</p>
<p>I used to have one of Robert C. Byrd, but he lost me when he left the Klan and became the <a href="http://www.govtrack.us/congress/record.xpd?id=111-s20090107-13&amp;person=300065">Conscience of the Senate</a>. Whatever that means. Didn&#8217;t know the Senate had one. But I never understood that. How can a white guy in good conscience leave the Klan? But I digress.</p>
<p>I have a mega-gun collection and a huge stockpile of hollow-point Teflon-coated ammo that&#8217;s just itching to be used. Haven&#8217;t decided yet on which abortion doctor I&#8217;m going to target next. Maybe I&#8217;ll just go down to the border and shoot brownskins for sport. dHs, sToP mE BefORe I KilL aGAiN!</p>
<p>And though I really hate homos like the Good Book says I should, I spend a lot of my free time cruising aiport rest rooms and tapping footsies like Larry Craig. If I&#8217;m lucky, I&#8217;ll get some real teabagging in. If not, I&#8217;ll try to get some in at my local Tea Party. Of course, my shotgun wedding <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Handmaid%27s_Tale#Plot_summary">Handmaid&#8217;s Tale</a> wife with the nice tooth doesn&#8217;t know about any of this. She&#8217;s usually home watching Jerry Falwell and the &#8220;700 Club&#8221; most of the day, and role-plays being Sarah Palin for me at night. Is that kinky or what? God, I love my wife! Would never be unfaithful to her with another woman.</p>
<p>As to being with other men, well, nobody in the GOP&#8217;s perfect. But it beats being a liberal! Except for the part where they get away with <a href="http://foia.fbi.gov/foiaindex/chappaquiddick.htm">murder</a>, and we get stoned for <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/first100days/2009/01/27/dems-launch-online-petition-rush-limbaugh/">jaywalking</a>.</p>
<p>Our favorite day is Sunday, named after our favorite radical fire-and-brimstone preacher <a href="http://www.billysunday.org/">Billy Sunday</a>. We sing hymns like &#8216;Onward Christian Soldiers&#8217; and wash ourselves clean in the Lord. Really necessary for me. A conservative Republican can get real dirty during the GOP workweek. Good thing my wife&#8217;s family is rich. Her toothless redneck dad gave us a beat up &#8216;78 Ford pickup with NASCAR and confederate flag bumper stickers and an Easy Rider rifle rack. Pride of the Bayou!</p>
<p>I want war. Lots of it. Want the economy to get a boost? Works every time! Bomb bomb bomb, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-zoPgv_nYg">bomb bomb Iran</a>! Of course, in the interest of disclosure, I must confess to being a consultant for Blackwater, Halliburton, the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2001/10/26/business/bin-laden-family-liquidates-holdings-with-carlyle-group.html">Carlyle Group</a> and Big Oil. And so what if we all staged 9/11? Made a ton of dough and dusted enough Islamist ragheads to fill the new Yankee Stadium, didn&#8217;t we?</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/07/1046975.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-183234 aligncenter" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/07/1046975.jpg" alt="" width="331" height="201" /></a></p>
<p>Liberals are such pussies! And screw Global Warming! I WANT the world to burn! Only then can Jesus bring Paradise to earth. Speaking of which, where&#8217;s that landing strip for Christ in Yosemite National Park <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_G._Watt">James Watt</a> put on order? Days are gettin&#8217; short! And don&#8217;t forget, Jesus is white, and might is right. I&#8217;m sorry, what was the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3yw5JrowpA">problem with slavery</a> again?</p>
<p>Actually, I have to confess yet again. All the above is only what I aspire to be, i.e. the best GOPer Repug Nazi I can be. Like most mortals, I fall far short of my goals and dreams. I don&#8217;t even own a gun or hollow-point Teflon-coated ammo, but I support the Second Amendment, which is just as bad. May as well be a co-conspirator with Scott Roeder and James von Brunn.</p>
<p>I detest the corrupt Mengele-like <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/253801">genocidal</a> statutory <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/253726">rape-hiding</a> abortion industry that needs reform even more than Iran&#8217;s government, but support a woman&#8217;s LEGAL right to choose. It&#8217;s the law. Until and unless it&#8217;s overturned, what can you do? Shoot up clinics? Ya, in my Rethug dreams!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m really not a bathroom footsie player, or <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1n1gdAJiC4&amp;feature=PlayList&amp;p=F8F959EB33730C8B&amp;playnext=1&amp;playnext_from=PL&amp;index=13">like cock</a> and hairy ass in general. But gay marriage is legal in my home state of New Hampshire and I haven&#8217;t been sodomized yet, so live and let live. What can I say, I&#8217;m weak. And even though as a six-year veteran I believe in General Douglas MacArthur&#8217;s axiom that &#8220;no one hates war more than the soldier,&#8221; sometimes they just gotta be fought if civilization as we know it must survive. Be it a cold war with the Russians or hot ones with Hitler and bin Laden, the dirty deeds must be done. And without quarter until victory is complete.</p>
<p>Fight a war to the end or don&#8217;t fight it. You can&#8217;t do both. One way assures victory, the other defeat. The Art of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Ycw0d_Uow">Fighting Without Fighting</a> doesn&#8217;t work with the abu Musab al-Zarqawis of this world.</p>
<p>Worst of all? I was born and raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Now THAT&#8217;S a confession! How can I ever face my conservative redneck Republican sister-banging moonshine-guzzling Zionist drinking buddies at the NRSC and AIPAC again?</p>
<p>I put it all on the table, people. Now, if only liberal Democrat lefties would freely admit to all the world that they&#8217;re all hypocritical, mentally disordered, drug-addled, tree-hugging, America-hating, nihilist anarchist recruiting office-bombing, terrorist and dictator-loving, tinfoil hat, limp-wrist pansy spoiled brat full-grown trust fund Stalinist toddlers who couldn&#8217;t get gangbanged by the Green Bay Packers hard or fast enough (practice squads included), maybe we&#8217;ll get somewhere in this country.</p>
<p>I seek progress, not perfection. We can all sit down together and have one big ideological circle jerk. Get it out of our systems, you know? Hey, we&#8217;re all Americans here! Confession is good for the soul. Or your metaphysical, Pagan or Wiccan existential plane of being, depending on your religious or non-religious proclivities and inclinations.</p>
<p>God, I feel so good now. Got it all out. Okay, let&#8217;s hear it in the comments section now. No holding back. That includes you, <a href="http://righteousbubba.blogspot.com/">Unrighteous Bubba</a> and <a href="http://www.cognitivedissident.org/">Cognitive Dissonant</a>. Tell us about all the kinky things you like to do with tinfoil, Vaseline and vacuum cleaners while watching sick online German porn in your mothers&#8217; basements <img src='http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my Big Hollywood <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jtsimpson/2009/04/27/from-fourth-estate-to-fourth-branch-of-government/">post</a> of April 27th, I decried the media&#8217;s acting as a cheerleading fourth branch of government, in which the MSM has not only assumed a Dear Leader-like reverence and awe for our new president, but attacks any and all critics with slander, ridicule, and even intimidation, and discounts any real concerns by the public as right wing extremist rabble-rousing and racism.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/olbermann070416_3_560.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-121086 aligncenter" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/olbermann070416_3_560-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Given my love of true reporting and Woodward and Bernstein-like investigative journalism, which is really nowhere to be found in this Messianic Media Age of Obama, it was a very depressing piece to write. But after the recent flyover of New York City by Air Force One and F-16 fighter jets, which sent half of the Big Apple fleeing for their lives, it occurred to me.</p>
<p>How would the Left report the news if Obama were a Republican, i.e. an <a href="http://www.google.com/#hl=en&amp;q=michael+steele+uncle+tom&amp;fp=aaV-kzfDWBk">Uncle Tom</a>, as many on the Left <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/tslagle/2009/04/22/re-janeane-garofalo-is-crap/">call</a> now-GOP Chairman Michael Steele? Eureka! That&#8217;s it! See, it&#8217;s one thing for me to point out the obvious, as I did in my media slam yesterday. But what if we walked GOP President Obama&#8217;s media coverage through the mirror darkly, as was SOP for President Bush?</p>
<p>NOW we&#8217;re gonna have some fun!<span id="more-118906"></span></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s start with MSNBC&#8217;s &#8216;Countdown&#8217; with Keith Olbermann, on Republican President Obama&#8217;s electoral landslide victory in November, and his 96% sweeping of the black vote.</p>
<p>KO: &#8220;It would seem the sinister and morally bankrupt Republican ploy of taking the White House with a totally inexperienced and faux minority candidate has been the most resounding political success for the GOP since the <a href="http://worldatwar.net/event/reichstagsbrand/">Reichstag Fire</a>. Could African-Americans not act more self-destructively than in their rush to the polls to elect this Republican wolf in Martin Luther King clothing?</p>
<p>&#8220;Do they want to <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3yw5JrowpA">go back</a> to slavery? For this abomination and slap in the face of freedom-loving Americans everywhere, and which has condemned this nation to yet another four endless years of war and jingoistic right wing fascism, I hereby declare every African-American voter who pulled the lever for this Republican Omar Bashir as the Worst Person in the World.&#8221;</p>
<p>Next up? Susan Roesgen of CNN, wandering through the crowd at a Democratic Chicago Tea Party.</p>
<p>SR, pointing to a protester wearing an Obama as Hitler/Satan <a href="http://www.newsbusters.org/node/3586">mask</a>: &#8220;Over here, we have a President Obama look-alike.&#8221; SR turns to a man in top hat holding a child. &#8220;What is your issue with the President, sir?&#8221; MAN: &#8220;It&#8217;s bad enough President Bush put us on the verge of bankruptcy. It appears the ObamaHitler is intent on finishing the job.&#8221;</p>
<p>SR: &#8220;Do you really believe President Obama when he tells us the City of Chicago will be getting fifty billion in new aid?&#8221; A protester wearing a KILL OBAMA tee shirt interjects: &#8220;No way! This is all for his and Darth Biden&#8217;s warmongering lobbyist friends in Halliburton and Blackwater! We&#8217;ll never see a dime of that money! KILL OBAMA! KILL BIDEN!&#8221;</p>
<p>Death chants rise in unison from the crowd. SR turns to the camera, smiling. &#8220;There you have it.&#8221;</p>
<p>CNN&#8217;s Wolf Blitzer, on Iranian hostage Roxana Saberi.</p>
<p>WB: &#8220;It has now been nearly three months since Roxana Saberi was arrested in Iran, allegedly for buying a bottle of wine, and with no concrete action to free her by this administration. Even worse, since Ms. Saberi&#8217;s kangaroo court conviction on trumped-up charges of espionage, which is as common for reporters in Iran as citations for jaywalking are here, she has gone on a hunger strike, and her condition is worsening by the day.</p>
<p>&#8220;I cannot help but be reminded of murdered Iranian-Canadian journalist <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zahra_Kazemi">Ziba Kazemi</a>, who was beaten, flogged, raped, her fingernails pulled and her skull fractured in Evin prison, ironically for the crime of taking pictures of protesters outside Evin. How many more journalists have to come out of Iran in body bags before this President will act?&#8221;</p>
<p>Markos Moulitsas of Daily KOS, on Air Force One&#8217;s low flyover of New York City with F-16 escort.</p>
<p>KOS: &#8220;The scariest thing for me out of this whole episode is how easily the ObamaHitler managed to arrange a Boeing 747 to fly low over New York City with nobody knowing, and I mean nobody! Is it really much of stretch to believe now that the BusHitler couldn&#8217;t have arranged the same thing on 9/11 with remotely-controlled commercial airliners?</p>
<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t help but wonder. Was this a test run? And why this time? To accelerate the rush to war with Iran? The only questions that remain for me are these: When? And which American city does the ObamaHitler and his Halliburton buddies plan to turn into a bombed-out crater next, in order to get another round of war profiteering off to a Grand Old Start? Call me a tinfoil hat paranoid NOW! I dare you! I double-dare you!</p>
<p>&#8220;The ObamaHitler. Brand new color. Same old warmongering right wing fascism. Screw &#8216;em!&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/al_franken.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-121094 aligncenter" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/al_franken-261x300.jpg" alt="" width="261" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Al Franken, America&#8217;s most popular radio talk show host, on President Obama&#8217;s political <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0309/19596.html">targeting</a> of him from the White House itself.</p>
<p>AF: &#8220;It would seem President Obama and his fawning Reichminister, Rahm Emmanuel, don&#8217;t like my rousing nationwide success in calling them out for who they really are. This attempt to target me personally, a private citizen, from the White House, with all its authority and power, puts on display for all to see that the BusHitler&#8217;s self-groomed replacement&#8217;s ambitions exceeds even that of Darth Rove and his fascist leash-holder.</p>
<p>&#8220;Not only did that Hitler-like persecution of me personally not work, it has backfired badly. My nationwide listener numbers on Air America are skyrocketing. I suppose it&#8217;s time now to implement the so-called Fairness Doctrine, which President Obama&#8217;s Reichstag-like stooges in Congress are pushing at this very moment.</p>
<p>&#8220;I find it particularly disturbing that Republican House Speaker John Boner, spearheading this shredding of the Constitution, finds no fault with FIX News, Goon Beck, Shill O&#8217;Reilly or Bum Rush Limbaugh, all of whom ragged us as ballsuckers during our Tea Parties and implied we would become violent, but finds plenty wrong with NPR, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC and especially my Air America. Talk about Brownshirts calling the kettle black!</p>
<p>&#8220;See you in the Gulag, Keith! The Countdown is on!&#8221;</p>
<p>Michael Moore, on the <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jtsimpson/2009/04/19/when-dissent-becomes-unpatriotic/">controversial</a> DHS Left Wing Extremism Report and DHS Fusion Centers.</p>
<p>MM: &#8220;After reading this incredibly vague and exceptionally broad DHS report on Left Wing Extremism, can anyone really say this isn&#8217;t an attempt by the Obama Administration and the Republicans to silence dissent in this country once and for all? Individuals who protest the war, support abortion, favor tougher gun laws, the rights of undocumented immigrants, even those who oppose the federal government itself, are called out as potential terrorists!</p>
<p>&#8220;My next anti-war film could land me in jail! I&#8217;m sorry, who are the extremists here again?</p>
<p>&#8220;Even the DHS Civil Liberties Division objected to the broad language of the report, which Obama&#8217;s <a href="http://www.auschwitz.dk/Himmler.htm">Himmler</a>-like DHS Secretary Janet Nazipolitano seemed to be in a hurry to rush out the door, and just in time for our nationwide protests. Coincidence? I think not. It is quite clear to me what this report says: &#8220;You are either with us, or you&#8217;re a terrorist.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No surprise there. And how ironic, considering the right wing extremists in the Hitlerite Obama regime are the real terrorists. Today&#8217;s Grand Old Party is not the party of Lincoln. It is the party of Hitler and Mussolini. Given the present occupier of the Oval Office, perhaps Idi Amin would be a better analogy.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;By the way, you may want to look into DHS Oberfuhrer Nazipolitano&#8217;s so-called fusion centers. There are seventy of them around the country now. One fusion center in Virginia <a href="http://www.aclu.org/privacy/gen/39333prs20090406.html">declared</a> all of the state&#8217;s universities &#8216;nodes for radicalization.&#8217; Another in Texas <a href="http://www.texasobserver.org/article.php?aid=3003">warned</a> about the terrorist threat from the &#8216;International Far Left.&#8217; And Nazipolitano <a href="http://www.texasobserver.org/article.php?aid=3003">calls them</a> &#8216;the wave of the future.&#8217; This nationwide politically-motivated DHS network is called &#8216;The National Fusion Center Coordination Group.&#8217;</p>
<p>&#8220;Anyone else thinking <a href="http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?ModuleId=10005130">Einsatzgruppen</a> besides me? That&#8217;s what Hitler called his Special Action Groups. Who&#8217;s going to head those up? Obama&#8217;s radical right wing extremist preacher Jeremiah Wright? Or his Timothy McVeigh-like pal Bill Ayers, who knows a few things about throwing bombs and killing innocents? You DO see where all this is going, don&#8217;t you, people? Should be as plain as the Swastika flag flying over the ObamaHitler White House!&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://michellemalkin.com/category/unhinged/assassination-chic/">OBAMA ASSASSINATION CHIC</a></p>
<p>The Guardian/UK&#8217;s Charlie Brooker, just <a href="http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/Read.aspx?GUID=EB6208C5-C85D-46A3-8E97-419E5DC273CA">prior to</a> President Obama&#8217;s GOP landslide.</p>
<p>&#8220;On November 4, the entire civilised world will be praying, praying Obama loses. And Sod’s law dictates he’ll probably win, thereby disproving the existence of God once and for all. The world will endure four more years of idiocy, arrogance and unwarranted bloodshed, with no benevolent deity to watch over and save us. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/03/28/mlk.ray.case/index.html">James Earl Ray</a> &#8211; where are you now that we need you?&#8221;</p>
<p>Protest <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2008/03/19/assassination-chic-bush-the-only-dope-worth-shooting/">sign</a>: &#8220;Obama. The only dope worth shooting.&#8221;</p>
<p>Air America&#8217;s Randy Rhodes <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2005/04/27/air-americas-assassination-chic/">on the air</a>, likening President Obama to Freddie Corleone.</p>
<p>&#8220;Do they let black people into the Mafia? No? Well, I think they ought to make an exception for President Obama. At least long enough to take him out on a boat like Freddie Corleone and phuw!&#8221; (GUNSHOT)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/">Democratic Underground</a>, on the current Swine Flu pandemic.</p>
<p>&#8220;Like Bush intentionally withholding aid from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina in order to foment misery and violence, the ObamaHitler seems content to sit back and let this flu pandemic rage unabated. DHS Secretary Nazipolitano, who is such an idiot she doesn&#8217;t even know <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2009/04/21/janet-napolitano-said-what/">border law</a>, has yet to close that same border in order to stem the flow of possibly infected Mexican nationals, even though clusters have now appeared as far north of the border as Queens, NY.</p>
<p>&#8220;Is this criminal negligence and malfeasance also intentional? Like Obama&#8217;s Republican lackeys in Congress rejecting nine hundred million in new flu pandemic funding? Who stands to suffer the most? I have no doubt the rich, and all of the ObamaHitler&#8217;s good buddies in Washington, will get the best treatment they possibly can. Just as they did lining up for Cipro during the BusHitler&#8217;s black bag job anthrax attack on the mail system, which Der Fuhrer staged in order to invade Iraq.</p>
<p>&#8220;But what of inner city minorities, who stand to suffer and die the most should this pandemic explode beyond control? Makes me wonder if they knew ahead of their flu pandemic funding vote that this would happen. Or worse, even started the epidemic themselves by injecting illegal aliens being deported to Mexico. Why else would Army samples go <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/04/22/missing.virus.sample/index.html">missing</a>?</p>
<p>&#8220;If true, not only does this make our new Republican &#8216;multicultural&#8217; Fuhrer in Washington a mass murderer, it makes him the greatest race traitor of all time. He would be guilty of nothing less than genocide. Just like his mentor, idol and BFF Omar Bashir in Sudan. Welcome to the American Darfur, courtesy of the ObamaHitler. Feeling better now?&#8221;</p>
<p>The moral of the story? Despite how rough of a ride it has been at times for President Obama, Democrat, he can thank God and his lucky stars he is not a Republican.</p>
<p>Now ask youself. Why is that?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/6a00d8341c4fc953ef00e5528cfb668833-800wi.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-112314 aligncenter" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/6a00d8341c4fc953ef00e5528cfb668833-800wi.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="289" /></a></p>
<p>Do you have a spare tire? Some bulges? Do your thighs rub together? Do you have a big gut?</p>
<p>Well, be prepared to be ostracized.</p>
<p>They already did a number on smokers. It used to be you could smoke almost anywhere, from the supermarket to your workplace. And then they started passing laws until you now have to go to smoke areas which are usually outside and away from everywhere else. Even though OSHA had to admit that second-hand smoke in the workplace cannot affect people except under extreme conditions.<span id="more-110942"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Field studies of environmental tobacco smoke indicate that under normal conditions, the components in tobacco smoke are diluted below existing Permissible Exposure Levels (PELS.) as referenced in the Air Contaminant Standard (29 CFR 1910.1000)&#8230;It would be very rare to find a workplace with so much smoking that any individual PEL would be exceeded.&#8221;<br />
-Letter from Greg Watchman, Acting Ass&#8217;t Sec&#8217;y, OSHA, to Leroy J Pletten, PHD, July 8, 1997</p></blockquote>
<p>But relentless anti-smoking ads and a successful attempt to ban smoking in most movies and TV has resulted in smokers being made social pariahs.</p>
<p>So now they are going after fat people. The arsenal of mendacity and fraud they&#8217;re using comes in many forms. <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/environment/fat-causes-a-billion-tonnes-of-greenhouse-gas-20090420-acq7.html">The latest broadside is to link obesity to global warming</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>HIGH rates of obesity in richer countries cause up to a billion extra tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions every year, compared with countries with leaner populations, according to a study that assesses the additional food and fuel needs of the overweight.</p>
<p>The finding is particularly worrying, scientists say, because obesity is on the rise in many rich nations.</p>
<p>&#8220;Population fatness has an environmental impact,&#8221; said Phil Edwards, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. &#8220;We&#8217;re all being told to stay fit and keep our weight down because it&#8217;s good for our health. The important thing is that staying slim is good for your health and for the health of the planet.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>So do China and India have less greenhouse gas emissions than Canada and Germany? After all, China and India have &#8220;thinner&#8221; people. The answer is of course, no. This is a false claim like many of those the AGW crowd makes.</p>
<p>But making false statements didn&#8217;t stop the anti-smoking crusaders who made it seem like smoking a cigarette automatically gives you get lung cancer. And it&#8217;s gotten so bad many places are using their anti-smoker bias to <a href="http://www.forces.org/articles/linda/linda1.htm">deny smokers their civil rights.</a> Using the same logic, they can start doing that to the &#8220;obese.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mind you, the obesity epidemic burst onto the scene when the government changed their obesity ratings by using a bogus Body Mass Index (BMI) chart so off base that muscular people like The Rock or Arnold Schwarzenegger would suddenly be rated obese. <a href="http://www.consumerfreedom.com/news_detail.cfm/headline/2779">Many athletes are rated as obese</a> under these standards.</p>
<p>But the media naturally just ran with the press releases that claimed there was a sudden obesity epidemic sweeping the nation. And then came the articles stating it was <a href="http://www.forbes.com/2006/07/19/obesity-fat-costs_cx_mh_0720obesity.html">causing health costs to soar</a> and something must be done about it.</p>
<p>They are using the obese as a scapegoat for health costs. And now airlines are making fat people pay double for air fare. The reason fat people spill over into the next seat is because they keep making the seats narrower. They have been doing that for years. And suddenly, with the obesity epidemic, it &#8220;became a problem.&#8221; If you read the comments on some of the articles talking about it there are lots of rabble saying things like &#8220;Good! Make those fatties pay triple!&#8221;</p>
<p>Be careful what you wish for. If they get away with doing this to people out of shape, they will find some other group to target next and soon you may be in the crosshairs.</p>
<p>Everywhere you look they are trying to ban something and make a group out to be the fault of it all. If you&#8217;re a conservative, the Obama DHS is calling you a domestic terrorist.<a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2009/04/14/confirme-the-obama-dhs-hit-job-on-conservatives-is-real/"> Some in the MSM are calling you greedy racists. </a></p>
<p>As long as we let others define us as something we&#8217;re not, they will get away with it. It&#8217;s time we stop letting them do that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You all know the drill. The recent vague and <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2009/04/16/janet-napolitanos-extremist-makeover-tour/">controversial</a> DHS report on right-wing extremism, the <a href="http://www.fas.org/irp/eprint/rightwing.pdf">cover</a> of which DHS might just as well have put on the Republican Party platform. The endless puerile teabagging <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2009/04/16/what-is-the-difference-between-anderson-cooper-and-matt-taibbi/">jokes</a> from the fourth estate&#8217;s finest, giggling into their <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Speak%20into%20the%20mic">microphones</a> like ten-year-olds who just found a tittie mag.</p>
<p>CNN reporter Susan Roesgen even called a Tea Party &#8220;anti-government and anti-CNN&#8221; when her pro-government handout <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6G3fvNhdoc0">rant</a> to a Tea Partier was rudely interrupted. Ms. Roesgen took particular offense at a sign of Obama with a Hitler moustache. &#8220;Why be so hard on the President of the United States though with such an offensive message?&#8221; the offended Ms. Roesgen asked.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/teapartylogo.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-109578 aligncenter" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/teapartylogo-256x300.jpg" alt="" width="256" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Yet in 2006, Ms. Roesgen was perfectly comfortable with <a href="http://spectator.org/blog/2009/04/16/flashback-in-2006-cnns-roesgen">this</a> Satan/Hitler Bush mask, jokingly calling it a Bush &#8216;look-alike.&#8217; I guess it all depends on which POTUS you&#8217;re hard on. Right, Suzie?</p>
<p>And therein lies the rub. Dissent was SO patriotic not so long ago, wasn&#8217;t it? Dissent against war, dissent against torture, dissent against wiretapping, dissent against Gitmo, dissent against rendition, dissent against government abuse of power. In fact, now-Secretary of State Clinton was quite vocal on the matter back in the <a href="http://rightinaleftworld.blogspot.com/2009/03/thou-shalt-not-dissent.html">day</a>:<span id="more-108110"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration, somehow you’re not patriotic. And we should stand up and say we are Americans, and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Right On, Hillary! You Go, Girl! Why is that all different now? I thought she said <em>any</em> administration. Heard plenty of cheers then. Only jeers now. Why is that? Wouldn&#8217;t be a double standard, would it?</p>
<p>Example. If President Bush and Karl Rove targeted private citizens like Al Franken and Michael Moore with the power, authority, consent and political weight of the White House, the death camp talk from the Left wouldn&#8217;t have been far behind. It never was anyway, but especially in that case. There&#8217;d certainly be plenty of &#8216;left wing chatter&#8217; on the Internet rehashing Nixon&#8217;s Enemies&#8217; List.</p>
<p>Yet President Obama and Rahm Emmanuel did that very same <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0309/19596.html">thing</a> to Rush Limbaugh. Yawn. And now we find that NSA intercepts of Americans have <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/04/15/nsa-intercepts-exceed-lim_n_187522.html">skyrocketed</a> in recent months under the Obama Administration, and well beyond limits set by Congress. The NSA called it &#8220;an over-collection of domestic communications in America.&#8221;</p>
<p>Over-collection on whom, exactly? DHS-declared extremist threats? Or &#8216;right wing chatter&#8217;? Funny. I never saw the term &#8216;left wing chatter&#8217; used in any government report. In fact, the term &#8216;left wing chatter&#8217; isn&#8217;t even in the DHS <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/projects/pdf/Leftwing_Extremist_Threat.pdf">report</a> on possible left wing cyber attacks! How bad is that? In fact, the only other place I&#8217;ve seen that term used by the government is for &#8216;chatter&#8217; on Al Qaeda websites.</p>
<p>I know I&#8217;m going to hear it from Lefties now: &#8220;See how we felt under the BusHitler?&#8221; Um, no, I don&#8217;t. What weren&#8217;t you free to say? That Bush engineered 9/11 and murdered 3000 innocent civilians to start a war? That you wanted Bush and Cheney dead? That you wanted the Iraq War to fail? We can&#8217;t even say we want Obama to fail without it being a federal case with talk of censorship!</p>
<p>Actually, more than <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=Congressional+democrats+stop+rush+petition&amp;btnG=Search">talk</a>.</p>
<p>Wouldn&#8217;t be the first <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,301656,00.html">time</a>. What have we come to, when freedom-championing Liberal Democrats pass petitions around in Congress to shut up the most popular radio talk show host in America? One thing it definitely says: The Old Patriotism is <a href="http://victoryshirt.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=101">out</a>, and the New Patriotism is <a href="http://obamamessiah.blogspot.com/">in</a>.</p>
<p>Talk of shutting up Rush, even from the White House. Sorry. We had to deal with Air America, KOS and HuffPo. Your turn. And I really hate sore winners who try to change the rules in mid-game. Like issuing a national security report that covers the opposition party&#8217;s entire platform, and is so vague we can even be snitched out to the police for political thought. Sound <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoughtcrime">familiar</a>?</p>
<p>This DHS report doesn&#8217;t quell paranoia. It fuels it. And it ain&#8217;t paranoia when every law enforcement agency in the country now has DHS guidelines on Right Wing Extremism so broad,  individuals who oppose abortion, illegal immigration, even the federal government itself, are suspect.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s one thing for Hillary Clinton to call us a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy out of spite. Quite another for the Department of Homeland Security to do so officially on paper.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m getting a very creepy feeling, people. It&#8217;s like the government, the press, and the freedom-championing American Left, who now rule supreme, see their big chance and are now looking to silence the Right once and for all through ridicule, <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;q=all+Republicans+are+racist&amp;btnG=Google+Search">demonization</a>, even intimidation through official government reports to law enforcement.</p>
<p>Unnamed individuals with views that don&#8217;t adhere to the present government&#8217;s on abortion, illegal immigration, even the Second and Tenth Amendments to the Constitution, are called out in the DHS report. Makes me wonder who the real extremists are here.</p>
<p>In short, dissent is now unpatriotic. Tea Parties are being falsely linked to White Supremacy and neo-Nazi groups by both the <a href="http://digg.com/politics/Militias_secessionists_neo_Nazi_s_GOP_embrace_Tea_Party_s">press</a> and <a href="http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2009/04/dem-leaders-say-tea-party-protesters.html">Members</a> of Congress. Public demonstrations against high taxes and spending, which reporters ridicule and call &#8216;anti-government.&#8217; A member of the press calling a peaceful public protest &#8216;anti-government&#8217; while spouting government policy?</p>
<p>What have we come to as a nation?</p>
<p>Good question. I&#8217;m keeping my eyes peeled, people. You should too. For any more government issue insanity like DHS&#8217; Right Wing Extremism report which, though not as severe as Hitler&#8217;s Night and Fog <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_and_Fog_Decree">Decree</a>, is just about as broad. Or the Fairness Doctrine, which is less fairness and more doctrine, and could even regulate <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/258504">web</a> content. Just like Iran and China do. Feeling better now?</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s just on top of their usual insanity.</p>
<p>I can at least take comfort that the outrageous DHS report on Right Wing Extremism has made strange bedfellows of Michelle Malkin <a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/nationalaffairs/index.php/2009/04/14/malkin-and-me/">and</a> Rolling Stone. Hope Springs Eternal. And to all reasonable Lefties everywhere (I know there are a few), please stop asking us why we weren&#8217;t protesting this stuff for eight years, and just look at why the hell we&#8217;re protesting it now, okay?</p>
<p>Our bad! You happy? Actually, I better watch it now. I already have one strike against me.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a Vet, you see. I could go either way.</p>
<p>Actually, I will go one step further. President Obama, liberal Democrats and non-extremist left wingers (I know there are a few) need to grow much thicker skins politically, before they start drifting into dangerous political waters themselves. Bush didn&#8217;t give one hoot about Michael Moore, Al Franken or Air America, even when Randy Rhodes simulated his assassination on the air.</p>
<p>Yet Rush seems as dug under the collar of President Obama, Rahm Emmanuel, liberal Democrats and Lefties as a bloodthirsty tick. Sorry, but Bush had his ticks, too. They all did. Every last POTUS there ever was. Goes with the territory. It&#8217;s called free speech and democracy. Deal with it.</p>
<p>You have a lot more important business to attend to than Rush Limbaugh and Tea Parties. Besides, even if you did manage to get Rush off the air, think of all the tax revenue you&#8217;d lose. Not very smart.</p>
<p>And could sombody please <a href="http://www.cnn.com/feedback/">tell</a> CNN&#8217;s Susan Roesgen to either report the news or get the hell off the air? We already know what the government&#8217;s position is. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;re OUT there!</p>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Maas">Peter Maas</a> you ain&#8217;t, lady.</p>
<p>THIS JUST IN: Radio talk show nuke Michael Savage, along with the Thomas Moore Law Center, is <a href="http://www.thomasmore.org/qry/page.taf?id=19">suing</a> DHS for civil liberties violations over the RWE report. They may have grounds. The DHS Civil Liberties Division objected to the broad language of the RWE report, but DHS issued it over their objections anyway. How&#8217;s THAT for our stalwarts of liberty guarding the gates?</p>
<p>Starting to look more like foxes in a chicken coop. I hope the heat keeps pouring on President Obama and Janet Napolitano until she has to resign. She&#8217;s earned that heat. Unlike those she so broadly called out in her official report.</p>
<p>Speaking of heat, here&#8217;s <a href="http://www.dhs.gov/xutil/contactus.shtm">DHS</a>. Here&#8217;s the <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/CONTACT/">White House</a>. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml">Congress</a>.</p>
<p>Credit where credit is due. This is from an ACLU <a href="http://blog.aclu.org/2009/04/16/soon-well-all-be-radicals/">blog</a>. Take friends where we can get &#8216;em.</p>
<p>&#8220;If these &#8220;intelligence&#8221; reports described recent crimes and the people who perpetrated them, there would be little problem from a civil rights perspective, and it could actually be helpful to the average police officer.</p>
<p>&#8216;Instead, they have followed a &#8220;radicalization&#8221; theory popularized by the <a href="http://www.nypdshield.org/public/SiteFiles/documents/NYPD_Report-Radicalization_in_the_West.pdf">NYPD</a> (PDF). That theory postulates that there is a &#8220;path&#8221; to terrorism that includes the adoption of certain beliefs, and political, religious, or social activism is viewed as another step toward violence.</p>
<p>&#8216;Actual empirical studies of terrorism conducted in the <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2008/aug/20/uksecurity.terrorism?gusrc=rss&amp;feed=users">Netherlands and Britain</a> refute this theory, but the idea that hard-to-find terrorists can be caught by spying on easy-to-find activists appears too hard to resist to U.S. law enforcement.&#8221;</p>
<p>On that note, you all need to know about regional DHS <a href="http://www.dhs.gov/xinfoshare/programs/gc_1156877184684.shtm">Fusion Centers</a>. There&#8217;s 58 of them around the country. <a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;as_q=DHS+fusion+centers&amp;as_epq=&amp;as_oq=&amp;as_eq=&amp;num=100&amp;lr=&amp;as_filetype=&amp;ft=i&amp;as_sitesearch=&amp;as_qdr=m&amp;as_rights=&amp;as_occt=any&amp;cr=&amp;as_nlo=&amp;as_nhi=&amp;safe=images">Update</a>: 70. Many are privately run. They were originally set up by DHS after 9/11 as local anti-terrorism information processing centers, but there are <a href="http://www.texasobserver.org/article.php?aid=3003">signs</a> now they&#8217;re <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/first100days/2009/03/23/fusion-centers-expand-criteria-identify-militia-members/">being</a> politicized well <a href="http://www.aclu.org/privacy/gen/39333prs20090406.html">beyond</a> that scope. Just like DHS with their report. And with our tax dollars. $250 million worth.</p>
<p>Feeling good yet? If not, how about this nugget from Big Janet herself, who called fusion centers, many of them operated privately through grants, &#8220;the centerpiece of state, local, and federal intelligence-sharing for the future.” For what right now look like political profiling centers. Great.</p>
<p>Former FBI agent Mike German, now with the ACLU, also has a different take than Big Jan.</p>
<p>“We’ve built this network, and nobody’s policing it,” says Mike German, a former FBI agent now with the ACLU. “Nobody knows exactly what each fusion center is doing. &#8230; Even the best fusion centers operate under a cloak of secrecy.” Part of the problem, German says, is that fusion centers fall in a “no-man’s-land” between federal and state governments.</p>
<p>&#8216;Such ambiguity can lead fusion centers to pick and choose which rules apply to them. A 2007 study by the Government Accountability Office found that one-third of all fusion centers reported a lack of guidance on the proper handling of information, including privacy and civil-liberties concerns.&#8217;</p>
<p>Gives the term fusion new meaning. Well, an <a href="http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Borg">old one</a>, actually. FYI. Need To Know. It all figures in.</p>
<p>Good Night and Good Luck.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>TO:</strong> ALL LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES</p>
<p><strong>FM:</strong> DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY</p>
<p><strong>SUBJ:</strong> NATIONWIDE ALERT &#8211; KNOW RIGHT WING EXTREMISTS BY THEIR BUMPER STICKERS!</p>
<p>Per the Guidelines of the Department of Homeland Security&#8217;s recent report, all units and law enforcement agencies are notified to be on the lookout (BOLO) for potential Right-Wing Extremists. Since the report&#8217;s guidelines are exceedingly general and non-specific, we here at DHS will provide the necessary details in order for state and local LE officials to round up the usual suspects.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/vvvv.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-106918" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/04/vvvv-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="275" height="188" /></a><br />
Usual Suspect</p>
<p>First, Right-Wing Extremists are often known to display their radical sympathies on bumper stickers. This could be as simple a matter as a Confederate flag on a pickup truck, but often involves stated extremist messages like ABORTION KILLS, BABIES ARE NOT SPARE PARTS (they are), and ADOPTION: THE CARING OPTION (it isn&#8217;t, spare parts is).</p>
<p>In this instance, it is best to keep a safe distance and follow the unsub&#8217;s vehicle, to where fellow right-wing extremists of like mind are no doubt plotting their next abortion clinic massacre.<span id="more-106622"></span></p>
<p>In the case of bumper stickers like I&#8217;D RATHER BE TRIED BY TWELVE THAN CARRIED BY SIX, or I&#8217;LL GIVE YOU MY GUN WHEN YOU TAKE IT FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS, once again, keep a safe distance and follow the unsub&#8217;s vehicle to the Timothy McVeigh-influenced militia group of which they are a part.</p>
<p>If you see bumper stickers such as WHAT PART OF ILLEGAL DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND, AMNESTY SUCKS or SPEAK ENGLISH, these messages indicate strong nationalist, and most likely racist, tendencies of the unsubs driving these vehicles.</p>
<p>Stop the vehicle and ask the driver just what exactly he/she meant by it. On the off-chance the driver is an illegal alien, and the bumper sticker a remnant of its past right-wing extremist owner, follow standard procedure and give the undocumented immigrant a pass, no questions asked.</p>
<p>Some Right-Wing Extremist bumper stickers indicate hostility toward the Federal Government, and even the Obamamessiah himself. It is these radicals who represent the most clear and present danger to our Republic, as well as to law enforcement officers themselves. Let&#8217;s face it. If they don&#8217;t love Washington, you think they care about cops?</p>
<p>Such bumper messages as TIME FOR A TEA PARTY, DON&#8217;T TAX ME, BRO, PORKULUS PIG, DON&#8217;T BLAME ME, I VOTED FOR McCAIN, or other similar anti-government and anti-Messiah messages, should be a red flag to all LE officers nationwide. Approach with extreme caution. Deadly Force is authorized. It may have taken us a few days to authorize the killing of pirates, but we know who the real enemies of America are here. You have Carte Blanche.</p>
<p>Should you encounter any bumper stickers indicating military service, unit designation, or general pro-military sympathies, flip a coin. They could go either way.</p>
<p>Though you may encounter some extremist-appearing bumper stickers like KILL BUSH, NO BLOOD FOR OIL, WHO WOULD JESUS TORTURE, WAR IS NOT PRO-LIFE, LA RAZA, BILL AYERS IS THE BOMB or bumper stickers that bear the <a href="http://www.diggersrealm.com/mt/archives/20070621/aztlan_map.jpg">Aztlan</a> or &#8216;reconquista&#8217; emblem, ignore them.</p>
<p>Those aren&#8217;t the droids we&#8217;re looking for.</p>
