The report is what it is, and the responses seem out of kilter.

However, the very vocal and newly empowered left has been applying the below logic successfully for a number of years:

Republicans = “Bushies”, “Bushites”, etc.
Bush = Hitler
Hitler = Nazi
QED, Republicans = Nazis.

It is this raw nerve on the right, IMO, that is being struck. And it is theexact tack, IMO, that will be taken with this report as it is abused by the left; they have plenty of irrational nirther-types of their own that will continue to find Nazis (i.e., Republicans) under every bed.

Meanwhile, BOTH sides will miss the point of tracking DANGEROUS EXTREMISTS (we don’t need two reports!) to make political hay.
