In another excellent Salon article, Sidney Blumenthal points out how bush and his gang of thugs are changing their rhetoric.

No longer blathering on about terrorism but "violent extremism." Don't you know how confusing this is to the christian right. Ministers in their klaverns from coast to coast are probably expecting an armed attack from the United States Military any minute now.
