The DHS Plot Thickens

Charles, I think you still completely miss the point. The FBI and other agencies are investigating “current or former soldiers who pose a domestic terrorism threat”. Who is arguing that the government shouldn’t investigate people who pose a domestic terrorism threat—far left or far right? You’re repeatedly posting “see-I-told-you-so” posts against arguments no one is making. The objection is to DHS’s definition of potential terrorist as anybody who disapproves of the direction the government is taking under the Obama administration or who doesn’t hold liberal views. Or was there perhaps a DHS study under the Bush administration where potential terrorists were defined as anybody who did not hold conservative views? You must understand that, so I’m beginning to wonder why you keep making the same non-argument. I’m probably wrong, but the only thing that makes sense to me is that at least one item in DHS’ list of potential terrorist indicators is something that you happen to agree with DHS on. Your persistence in refuting a non-argument just doesn’t make much sense to me.
