To all those righties complaining about that DHS report about ULTRA-conservatives...
Remember this?

"A Fox News guest proposed having a "Muslims only" line for airport travelers, an idea that "Dayside" co-host Mike Jerrick called attention to it so that viewers did not overlook the proposal.

Conservative radio host Mike Gallagher suggested the idea during a segment Tuesday (August 15, 2006) with constitutional lawyer Michael Gross discussing racial profiling.

"Dayside" co-host Juliet Huddy set up the debate by noting that all terrorists have been Muslim extremists, and Jerrick claimed that some people oppose racial profiling as "politically incorrect."

"It’s not just a matter of political correctness, please," responded Gross. "It’s illegal, it’s unconstitutional, unethical, immoral, it shouldn’t be done. We do not in this country prejudge a person based upon their race, creed, color, country of national origin and it’s wrong to do so and it addition it’s not effective. It doesn’t work. It actually perpetuates the problem. That is, it separates us.""

And Michelle Malkin is joining in the attacks on the report, if I remember correctly, didn't she call for the INTERNMENT of Muslims a while back?

Conservatives, if you think this report is about you, than you're even more delusional than we originally thought!

1. Methinks they protest too much
They've probably got guilty feelings, and thus are screaming loudly because they know they've thought extreme things but are too chickenshit to ever act out or in most cases even mention these extreme thoughts.

2. And, who, pray tell, Ms Huddy, bombed the Murrah building?
Not some Muslim extremist, but a domestic right wing extremist named Timothy McVeigh.

3. And
If you go beyond the terrorists that directly effect the US how about the IRA terrorists when they were still in action. I don't know what their called but haven't there been terrorist actions in Spain, Italy and France through the years. In a very real sense the KKK could be labeled as terrorists.

4. Good point about the KKK.
I wonder why they've never been classified/considered terrorists by everyone.

5. The KKK are terrorists
They are as bad and as evil as al-Qaida, and an even bigger threat to the United States because they are a domestic threat.

6. I agree.
But, there aren't that many people inside the GOP who would dare say so.
