Ad Demands DHS Secretary Napolitano's Removal and Apology from Obama
Ad Demands DHS Secretary Napolitano's Removal and Apology from Obama (Christian News Wire)
WASHINGTON, April 27 /Christian Newswire/ -- The No Political Profiling Coalition (www.NoPoliticalProfiling.com) has begun placing full-page ads, the first in this week's Washington Times Weekly edition and the Times' Wednesday daily edition, demanding the removal of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano for the DHS report "Rightwing Extremism."

Coalition Chairman Janet Folger Porter (who hosts a nationally syndicated daily talk show and is the President of Faith2Action) observed: "Even though DHS admits it has 'no specific information' of violence planned by so-called right-wing extremists, nevertheless, the report labels millions of law-abiding Americans potential terrorists and calls on state and local authorities to monitor their activities."

* * * * * * * * * * *

Porter continued: "While the Obama administration refuses to use the word 'terrorism' in connection with militant Islam and overlooks jihad terrorist cells currently training on American soil, instead it has labeled millions of law-abiding Americans as 'the most dangerous domestic terrorism threat in the United States' for holding views that are not politically correct."

* * * * * * * * * * *

The ad includes pictures of George Washington, Mother Teresa, Ronald Reagan and Pope Benedict XVI – all "right-wing extremists," according to Napolitano's Department of Home Land Security.

Can Napolitano survive this incident?

3. Interesting that they omit the fact that BUSH commissioned the report.
Of course they know this, but why bother saying that part? :eyes:

5. LOL, what incident?
She released a report done AND completed under the previous Bush administration but held back from release.

There is NO incident.

6. It's just the RW trying to create a disturbance.
I don't think Janet has anything to worry about. She's already met with reps from the American Legion and apologized for remarks that weren't meant to be released.

7. What a joke.
Where was the outrage when Bush and Cheney were bent on destroying this country?

8. Christian News Wire? WTF?

You got to be shitting me. I am tired of worrying about what people think who believe in an imaginary old man who lives in the clouds.

Maybe we had better check and see what the snake handling crowd has to say about this?

As for the "Can Napolitano survive this incident?" crap I sense your concern.

11. Talk about absolute fools. Napolitano didn't write the damn report, it was Bush's baby.
Apparently, none of the people in any of the 6 or 7 groups listed at the website know how to read.
