Event: At this event we will be honoring our Veterans and Service Men and Women. If it were not for the time honored traditions of our armed services from President Washington to our current volunteer military we would not be able to enjoy this great Nation.

We request:

2. We are not collecting names, emails or any information at this event and ask that no one else does.
3. Please bring a friend or friends, this is an event sponsored by the Muskegon Patriots, but is not about politics.

Petition wording:
We the people, of the great State of Michigan formally call for the termination of Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano. We feel that the slanderous and now libel report “Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment." Released April 7, 2009 justifies immediate removal from office.

My comments:

First, their website is http://www.muskegonpatriots.com

Now----------!!!!!

There we go again in Janet Napolitano’s words; “Fueling Resurgence in Radicalism and Recruitment” I guess by showing our respect to and appreciation to our Veterans past and present we will be radicalizing all of you who dare comne out to the causeway.

From Napolitano’s report when describing possible terrorists; “Returning veterans possess combat skills and experience that are attractive to rightwing extremists. DHS/I&A is concerned that rightwing extremists will attempt to recruit and radicalize returning veterans in order to boost their violent capabilities.”

Something is ringing the bell in my memory, something going back to the 60's. Never fear, it'll come to me lol.

Below is a link to the full report Napolitano is standing behind.

I read it all, made me gag: much as the same type of report by J.Edgar back in the 60’s made me gag. That report was about other Extremists after the overthrow of the government and included the likes of Martin Luther King and people who supported that cause. More of the same old, same old.

An elite is an elite, tyranny is tyranny, that at least has not changed. Greed for power remains pure, it knows not racial differences except those that it can use to control all indiscriminately.

In the 60’s I was, to use Napolitano’s term recruited and radicalized through learning of such hate filled double speak by those trying to stop people from fighting for what was their right. Today I am radicalized again by the same type of hateful tyrannical fear mongering against people trying to reassert their rights.

And the part in the report smearing our veterans especially made me gag, then I got mad. Below is the quote I'm talking about.

By the way. As in the other events across the country with this group; parents are welcome to bring their children. Construe that as you may Janet. To quote someone else. “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn”. Didn't then, don't now.
