I discovered tonight who I am!
Today,I got a call. A nice lady called me who said, "You don't know me, but I read your blog. My son just called me and told me about this report from Homeland Security and I just had to call and tell you about it." My stomach dropped and did a few flips because I knew that it had to be pretty important for a stranger to take the time to call me about it. She told me that she would email me the website to read the report. Thank you, Ms. D for calling me and honoring me with this information. Unfortunately, I had to finish my work and head to a rehearsal so my curiosity would have to wait until later when I got home. Well, I didn't have to wait cause as I drove down the interstate, my ears were filled with the comments of people calling into a radio talk show in Boise. I became ill as I listened.
When I got home, I immediately went to my blog and my other faithful so-called right-wing extremist had already commented about this report. I thought that I had felt fear in the past few months but nothing compared to the fear that I am experiencing tonight as I read the report. The sickness that has permeated my veins for the past few hours can't be put into words effectively.
I am a right-wing extremist! Thanks to the report I just read from the Homeland Environmental Threat Analysis Division, I have discovered what my adopted and beloved country thinks of me.
Thanks to Ms.D, bazookaman and mhbouncer for providing me with the following address to finally find out who I really am.

Now that I have read the official document and found ME there, I am fearful that this could be one of my last blogs. As I write this, the local offices could be making their list and checking it twice. The Right-Wing Extremist List will contain people like me who have spoken truth. People who have voiced a distrust of the current regime are now being labeled and will be watched. That's right! I said, regime-the government of a particular country, especially one that is considered to be oppressive. My heart is broken as I continue to struggle to write this.
I am reminded of Neville Chamberlain's first impression of Hitler at his meeting where he cowed to this monster, Hitler in the interest of peace. "In spite of the hardness and ruthlessness I thought I saw in his face, I got the impression that here was a man who could be relied upon when he had given his word."
Meanwhile, behind his back, Hitler planned, manipulated and lyed to other countries to gain support. Hitler encouraged the Germans in Czechoslovakia to cause violence and unrest against the Czech people in order to boost support of his plans to invade. All he needed was fake oppression from his people in that country to give him the reason to amass his troops along the border. Furthermore, he secretly talked with Representatives from Poland and Hungary and offered them a part of that country "spoils of war" in return for letting him invade. Then he convinced Chamberlain to gain support of England for him to take Czechoslovakia for his people. The British and French ambassadors proceeded to advise the Czechs that they should give up all areas along the border to Germany because that is where all of the oppressed Germans lived. The Czech government, abandoned by everyone, gave in and agreed to the terms.
Chamberlain returned to talk peacefully with Hitler and the monster showed his true colors and told Chamberlain that their agreement to allow the transfer of the small border areas of the country was no longer enough. He demanded that all un-German people leave and his army be allowed to take the whole country. Now Chamberlain realizes that he had been played by Hitler, giving this man the time he needed to complete his plan. It was too late to stop the horror.

I leave you, my readers, with only two final comments:
A minister asked a young soldier: "Son, when being a Christian and a believer of the democracy of our forefathers becomes a terrorist offense, how much evidence will they have against you?"
A German priest who lived through the regime of Hitler stated: "When they came for the Gypsies, I didn't speak up cause they were not my people. When they came to take the Communist, I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Communist. When they came for Jews, I looked the other way because I wasn't a Jew. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out."
