You may recall the flap just last month when Napolitano said this:
"In my speech, although I did not use the word “terrorism,” I referred to “man-caused” disasters. That is perhaps only a nuance, but it demonstrates that we want to move away from the politics of fear toward a policy of being prepared for all risks that can occur."
Well. The same does not appear to apply when discussing our own citizens. This, from the just-released memo from DHS to police departments around the country warning them of the potential for a rise of 'right-wing' extremism:
"the return of military veterans facing significant challenges reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying out violent attacks."
This marks the first overt sign of the re-making of the DHS into the DDS - Department of Domestic Security - focused not on real domestic violence issues such as gang warfare, the reality of which we can see 5 nights a week on the History Channel no less and with which we could use some real help, but on fears of the left's fevered imagination, nevermind her stated intent to 'move away from the politics of fear.' I guess that was just code for her intention to move away from our fears to her fears.
Why DHS is focusing on this, properly the FBI's job, rather than protecting our borders and us from foreign terrorists man-caused-disaster-makers is beyond me, but totally consistent with the mindset of the control freaks BO has chosen for his administration. Janet was uninterested in protecting our state's border when she was governor and appears to have less interest in protecting the nation's borders even now that that's her job.
The hypocrisy and intellectual blindness here is breathtaking. And it should be worrisome to all of us.
