A card-carrying right-winger

— Dear Editor:
You might be a “right-wing extremist” if ...
You believe killing of unborn babies is wrong ...
You think that people should not be rewarded for coming to the country illegally ...
You believe the right to bear arms is actually in the constitution ...
You are a veteran who served your country ...
You dare prepare for calamities such as global famine predicted in the Bible ...
Sound like a joke to you? Well, it is no joke! Our own government is calling conservative and biblical beliefs radical and dangerously extreme! The Secretary of the Department for Homeland Security Janet Napolitano issued a memo to federal, state and local police departments nationwide and warned them of the dangers of “right-wing extremists” who are stockpiling weapons and ammunition in anticipation of new restrictions and bans. The 10-page document was never intended to be made public; and thanks to the bias liberal media, it really wasn’t.
The agency’s definition of “right-wing extremist” applies to any conservative or values centered person. The DHS said that while there is no specific information that domestic right-wing terrorists are planning acts of violence, such acts could come from unnamed “right-wing extremists” concerned about illegal immigration, abortion, increasing federal power or restrictions on firearms.
I suppose that covers anyone who opposes Obama’s mad-dash to socialism. Obviously, this is a blatant effort by the Obama team to radicalize their opponents and be assured, they will get all the help they need from the liberal media.
The DHS secretary has since apologized to the veterans, but remember this document was issued to police departments nationwide.
So beware if you are a veteran or a member of the NRA or against abortion (do you have a bumper sticker on your car?) or if you attended a Tea Party protesting taxes and the HUGE debt this country will be in with the stimulus package. (Let’s not forget that they are recommending radio chips in our driver’s licenses, so they can tell if we attend such a radical rally). You have been labeled a “right-wing extremist.”
The report states that the government is monitoring what it calls “right-wing extremist chatter on the Internet” (your e-mails?) in true “Big Brother” fashion.
Remember, Obama has never proven to be a citizen of the U.S. to be eligible to run for president. If he could prove this, why would he not do so, and end the controversy. The “Certificate of Live Birth” from Hawaii is not a birth certificate. You can make $10,000 if you can prove you were present at his birth.
What surprises me is how so many people are willing to sit back and let our wonderful country, that was founded on the Ten Commandments and godly standards, be taken from us by one man’s evil regime; and how many Christians didn’t do their homework and actually voted for him. Get on the Web and check out what is really going on. You might learn some very interesting things by listening to Crosstalk on 90.5 FM at 4 p.m.
OK, so now you know. What are you going to do about it?
Me – I’m a card carrying right-wing extremist.
How about the rally on July 4th in Frankfort? I believe our rights are worth the time.
