White extremists lash out over election of first black president - Los Angeles Times
There will always be some hard-core extremists ON BOTH SIDES. The New Black Panthers are just as despicable as the KKK and White Ayrian Nation types...

Leave it up to law enforcement to deal with them - they and the justice department are well equipped to deal with them.

THey have all totally lost public support and are now small splinter groups.

Every society has it's share of human mediocrity, trash and excreble people.

KKK, Neo-Nazi's, Skinheads, whatever they call themselves, they are the vilest excrement ever shat by humanity.

Just what in how he has handled the job since the election is so frightening to you? Many including most main stream Republicans are complementary of his appointments. What would John McCain have done thus far that you think would have been so much more competent? Who are the people he would have been able to bring to national service. You have enough data now to be specific in your concerns based on performance to date and not what you have read in a blog. Please enlighten us what is so scary?

Now just what exactly is it that you are going to do to those who refuse to bow before your Messiah on bended knee to make their lives hell? Is this some kind of threat?

The only group that uses the term 'messiah' next to 'Obama' is the whacked out religious white zealots - the ones that are just one tiny step away from being as bad as the Taliban - the ones who think that abortion is a mortal sin but offing a convicted criminal is fine - the ones who think that raising massive amounts of money and building empires and making their religious leaders multi-millionaires in the name of God is cool and not total complete hyprocracy - the ones who hate Jews and Gays - the ones who are so totally messed up that they are becoming outcasts in this country.

Your description sounds like you are talking about yourself. Sorry dear, I happen to know a number of very well educated high income earners who refer to obama as the Messiah. You are painting with too broad a brush.
