Right-wing extremist groups may be using the recession and the election of the nation’s first African-American president to recruit members, a Department of Homeland Security report contends.

Though the nine-page report said it has “no specific information that domestic right-wing terrorists are currently planning acts of violence,” it said real-estate foreclosures, unemployment and tight credit “could create a fertile recruiting environment for right-wing extremists and even result in confrontations between such groups and government authorities similar to those in the past.”

The report, prepared in coordination with the FBI and published April 7, was distributed to federal, state and local law enforcement officials under the title “Right-wing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment.”

It compares the current climate with that of the 1990s, “when right-wing extremism experienced a resurgence fueled largely by an economic recession, criticism about the outsourcing of jobs, and the perceived threat to U.S. power and sovereignty by other foreign powers.”

Ah yes, reverse racism rears its ugly head again...... I am half Cuban. My mom came here from Cuba when she was 35. Do I run around calling myself a Cuban American? Does she? Nope. Why not? It CREATES DIVISION. The PC crowd, in their never ending quest for achieving nirvana in the realm of stupidity, loves to profile people. Yes I said "profile". Wait! Isn't racial profiling what they ***** about? Isn't that being hypocritical? By classifying someone as a (insert heritage here)-American rather than simply describing them as an "American", unnecessary classification and division is the result. Ah yes, the hypocrisy of the Left continues to run rampant. Jot this one on a post-it: Obama is simply an AMERICAN just like the rest of us.

It has been going on for a long time. Sure with a black president, they are more active now but this has been happening ever since the civil war.

The republican podium is mostly based on low key racial ideals.

As long as they have control in our government, minorities will not progress as they should. Minorities cover a full range of races, economic status, religious beliefs, sexual orientations, etc...

I go to these sites on occasion to see what the new movement is with them so that I understand motivations for political moves.

Try to blame it on race.
It won't work.
It's about him, Obama, the extremist, as with some of the past presidents, tampering with, and trying to nullify our Constitution.
Remember, he still has HIS Patriot Act to hide behind. He reinstated it, he owns it.

The race issue started before he was elected. Many people didn't a black man for President. A friend of mine just told me this last week:
He said that he voted for McCain, well he didn't vote FOR McCain. He was voting against Obama because he didn't want a black man running this country. Soo..yes, the race issue is there big time.

That is typical left wing propaganda. I'd like you to prove that first statement. Heres some substance for your nonsense.

Sandra Day OConnor was the first woman appointed to the Supreme Court. Colin Powell first Black Man as Sec Of State. Condi Rice first Black Woman to serve as National Security Advisor and Sec Of State. Alberto Gonzalez first Latino to serve as Attorney General.

But..those positions are not THE President. There's a big difference.

Emphasizing the presidents middle name is just as inflamatory and divisive. McCain and Palin loved doing that to get their base all riled up.

One could make assumptions why you use it in that way that would fit a racist, so don't wonder if people might think you are, though I am not saying you are. I would just say that you love to stir up the emotions.

The PC thing has been twisted as well.

Your assumptions are duly noted.
Direct question. You insinuate racism. Are you calling me racist?
Let's see, 9-11 stirred emotions, creating a willingness to kill.

I though this is FACTUALLY true. What does knowing facts about the president of USA has to do with racism?

May-be we should pretend that we are blind, and ask Klinton: "Were you from Africa?"

Or since Obama is a president, we now forbidden from seeing the truth?
