Alleged Georgia Plotters Belonged to Racist, Anti-Semitic Group (Connected to Redstate.com)
Source: Huffington Post

The FBI undercover tapes of four North Georgia militiamen arrested Tuesday offer an extraordinary glimpse of the terrorism the group is accused of planning. Details of how they allegedly intended to commit mass murder with deadly ricin, carry out assassinations of officials, and bomb government buildings abound in government affidavits that directly quote the men talking to undercover informants.

But there's one thing the affidavits don't tell you: What did these four elderly Georgians allegedly hope to accomplish? About as close you get to an answer is this cryptic quote from the alleged ringleader, 73-year-old Frederick W. Thomas: "When it comes to saving the Constitution, that means some people gotta die."

SNIP----

Thomas, the alleged ringleader, posted a Dec. 12, 2008, essay to a conservative website, Redstate.com, after Barack Obama was elected president but before he took office. Thomas speculated that if the Supreme Court found that Obama was not a U.S. citizen and therefore not eligible to serve, "ou can bank on race riots the likes of which would make the L.A. and Watts riots look like a playground scuffle. Half the country would go up in flames." A little later in the same essay, he added, "Personal property is destroyed by rioters to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars every time a racial violent act garners national attention."

They were connected to Redstate.com...No shock there!

This happened in Georgia where my wife & I live...They planned on killing Federal Employees to which my is one so needless to say we have been following this closely...I am non-violent but if one of these IDIOTS would have killed my wife I can't imagine how I would have reacted. Scary to think about on many levels.

2. Obama pals around with domestic terrorists?
Ayers blew up a toilet in the Pentagon after making sure no one was around.

And that was what, fifty or sixty years ago? To protest a war that was killing 55,000 Americans and only God knows how many others.

Abortion terrorist killings, racism terrorist killings.

It is just amazing to me that Democrats somehow lose the propaganda wars.

And don't say "media."

Yes, that is part of it, but Palin found something media would pick up and we LET her and media get away with it.

What the hell is wrong with us?

3. Gee, I wonder if...
anyone at CNN will ask their employee, Eric Erickson, why he allows racist terrorists to create diaries on his website?
