"Right-wing Militia" Group Arrested

The Justice Department arrested several Americans alleged to be part of a "right-wing militia" group. I use the quotes because I am quite skeptical of the government's charges and more skeptical of the timing.

To begin with, I'm not sure when the Far Left began condemning acts of terrorism against the U.S., but it is nice to see if that's what this really was (maybe Obama will even condemn Bill Ayers' past actions of bombing the Pentagon some day.)

Call me a skeptic, but now that Dems have crammed through an illegitimate Obamacare law and have rightly outraged regular citizens (but not to the point of violence), Democrats have gone out of their way to paint all opponents of Obamacare as right-wing radicals. (Remember the non-existing racial slurs and the non-existent spitting on Democrats?)

Secondly, how about the attacks by Obama supporters against Republican offices in the past week, including a death threat against Eric Cantor? Those don't fit the Leftist narrative, so those stories are buried.

But watch Democrats now make the association of this militia group to all opponents of Obamacare - and a lapdog media happy to tell the story. It's called crushing dissent and that's what we have in Democrats these days.
