This report isn't about you - Conservatives get paranoid over DHS report about ultra-rightists
When the Department of Homeland Security released a report about a potential rise in violent right-wing extremist movement, nobody thought they were talking about conservatives ... except, apparently, for the conservatives.

http://rightwingwatch.org/content/right-wing-leftovers-50

If you get out of DU, you'll see the conservatives saying some pretty weird stuff:

"Obama ordered veterans to be investigated"
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmHaEGrVqptMkP7LUGjO3yDty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20090414202836AALUBd3

"The Obama Administration is saying that veterans returning from Iraq are potential right wing nutjobs" (Never mind it was the DHS that authored the report)
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvHFVeGecF.PXTr29_TttnvY7BR.;_ylv=3?qid=20090415051458AAzmePI

And this one would be funny if it wasn't so delusional...

"So now (according to the Obama administration) you are an extremist hate-monger if you believe in the Constitution and believe in enforcing the laws as regards illegal immigration?"
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtDOnwat9qir1fbAYdFKW0_Y7BR.;_ylv=3?qid=20090415051158AArnVD6

Or is there a particular reason why conservatives think a report about ultra-rightists is about them?
