Governors Receive Threats From Extremist Group



WASHINGTON ? Governors across the country said Friday that they had
received letters from an extremist group warning that that they might be
forcibly removed from office if they did not step down within three
days.

Officials from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of
Homeland Security confirmed that they had sent out an intelligence note
with information about potential threats made to governors by a group
calling itself Guardians of the Free Republics.

The note was sent to state law enforcement officials in the last few
days.

A homeland security official said the federal agencies were not aware of
?an immediate or credible threat.?

?No specific information indicates that violence is intended,? the
official said. ?These threat assessments are issued regularly out of an
abundance of caution.?

State officials said they were taking the threat seriously because it
came
at a time of increased attention to antigovernment groups.

Nine members of a militant Christian militia group were arrested in
Michigan last weekend and accused of plotting an uprising against the
government.

On its Web site, the Guardians of the Free Republics sets forth a plan
to
?restore America.? It describes the plan as ?a bold achievable strategy
for behind-the-scenes peaceful reconstruction of the de jure
institutions
of government without controversy, violence or civil war.?

Maybe the Homeland Security people should start rounding up all these
whackos and ship them to Gitmo.




The President closed Gitmo...or maybe he didn't.


Or maybe he's trying. It's a complicated situation. Bush pushed it for years
and then said it should be closed. It'll take longer than Obama originally
thought, but there's every indication it'll get done.


Or maybe he realized it is in the best interest of our country to keep
it open.

Yeah, I'm sure "that" was what he was thinking of.. (sarcasm)...
