I may be a rightwing extremist
Crap.
I don’t like being associated with “rightwing”-ism, but apparently that seems to be how the government wishes to pigeonhole me, according to a recently-released report by the Department of Homeland Security on Rightwing Extremism:
Rightwing extremism in the United States can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups), and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration. [emphasis added by me]
I’ve suspected for years that I’m on “the lists” — but I really probably am!
On top of that, I have a Ron Paul bumper sticker on my car, so I better never travel in Missouri.

You mean you aren’t a terrorist or the head of some militia?? And all this time I thought. . .

“third-party candidates, such as U.S. Rep. Ron Paul”
The Republicans are a third party now?

Oh well, just because we believe in free market capitalism people can’t mentally put a venn diagram in their heads and admit there’s an overlap between two sets instead of one.

You’ll delight to know that economists are, on average, moderate democrats. They just know when they’re wrong, unlike other liberals.

Interesting.
Several other sites had linked to the (now defunct) kansascity.com site regarding Ron Paul supporters being classified as terrorists. I wonder why the info got taken down?
Anyway, Alex Jones has the documents saved, and I don’t see anyone shutting his site down anytime soon, so I’ve fixed the end-of-the-post link about driving in Missouri…
