Nearly 2 dozen groups appalled at 'extremism' reportBy Bob Unruh
A coalition of nearly two dozen organizations is launching a campaign that demands the resignation of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and an apology from President Obama for labeling those who hold traditional American values and conservative ideals as terrorists.
"We, the law-abiding Citizens of America, demand: 1. The Resignation or Removal of DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano for her partisan political profiling of veterans and conservatives and her abuse of power," says the petition, which is posted on the website for the coalition that goes under the name No Political Profiling.
It also demands, "An apology from President Barack Obama to ALL Americans for his administration's call for domestic spying," and "The Immediate Retraction of the 'Rightwing Extremism' report for labeling law-abiding citizens as 'terrorists' because of their political views."
As WND reported, a spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security cited executed Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh as an example of why "right wing" interests must be monitored closely by his agency in the United States.
