Freedom Watch would be hysterically funny if they weren't serious [View all]

My husband is a registered Republican, so we periodically get mailings from the far, far, far right. A Freedom Watch mailing appeared today. Highlights:

"REVEALED: Hussein Obama's NSA Spying Scheme is only his first step toward rounding up patriots and declaring MARTIAL LAW"

"...Hussein Obama's despotic home-grown GESTAPO..."

"...turning this nation that you and I love into an Islamo-Fascist Banana Republic and becoming America's first Dictator-in-Chief."

According to this letter, Obama, who got into office with a forged birth certificate, is planning to not leave office and round up Christians and Tea Partiers. Only sending them money will prevent his evil, wicked, and sinister plans. It's so bizarrely over the top, the Weekly World News couldn't have done better. What really scares me, though, is that they think there are people who believe this crap and will send them money.
