So conservatives are suing the Department of Homeland Security for keeping a watchful eye over neo-Nazis and militia types, because apparently they're all part of the same team.
Still, I just don't understand why conservatives would want to embrace this crowd:
The grandfather of Daniel Cowart testified today that when he saw a sawed-off shotgun, duck tape and nylon rope in his upstairs he believed his life might be in danger.
"I almost got sick to my stomach, I was so scared," Clark Cowart testified in federal court Friday morning. "I thought they really were planning to do it."
According to testimony given in court yesterday, authorities originally believed Daniel Cowart, 20, of Bells, and 18-year-old Paul Schlesselman of Helena-West Helena, Ark., were planning a possible attempt to rob and kill Clark and Judy Cowart.
Cowart and Schlesselman were later charged with planning a crime spree that would have involved killing 88 people and decapitating 14 blacks. The spree would have ended with an attempt to kill President Barack Obama. They were arrested Oct. 22 and have been held without bond since then.
Seems logical that DHS would keep a close eye on potentially violent hate groups and extremist organizations, but conservative bloggers, and House Minority Leader John Boehner, and Fox News, and Rush, and Glenn Beck, and all the rest of that crowd think its outrageous that the FBI would keep close tabs on the likes of Daniel Cowart and Paul Schlesselman.
