Feds Cite Racist Chatter for 'Higher State of Alert' in Inauguration
January 13, 2009
Federal agents are on “a higher state of alert” because of hate talk by white supremacists about Barack Obama’s inauguration, officials told the Daily News on Tuesday.
“That chatter is out there, no doubt about it,” one senior FBI agent in Washington said this afternoon, adding that no credible plots against the 56th Presidential Inauguration have been detected.
The Bureau has ordered agents in all 56 field offices to “shake the trees” in advance of the Jan. 20 swearing-in of the 44th President, who will become the first African-American to occupy the Oval Office.
“They’re talking to sources to determine if there is any threat information in regard to the Inauguration,” the FBI source said.
“Everybody in law enforcement dealing with that particular (white supremacist) ‘clientele’ is on a higher state of alert,” a senior agent at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives told The News.
The ATF has expertise infiltrating white supremacist groups. A classified threat assessment for the Inauguration by the FBI and Homeland Security Department citing agitated hate groups was sent to police agencies this week.
Counterterrorism officials have also picked up chatter from Islamic militants, but the agitated domestic hate groups are “the big concern,” said another FBI official.
But Secret Service Director Mark Sullivan told reporters at a briefing with local officials: “We have no credible intelligence to suggest a credible threat (to Obama’s Inauguration).”
During Obama’s campaign, white racists in Colorado and Tennessee were charged in separate plots against the candidate.
Local officials from D.C., Maryland and Virginia cited security concerns Tuesday for new restrictions on those attending the ceremonies - a throng estimated between 1.5 and 3 million. The historic ceremonies will be the largest National Special Security Event ever. At least 20,000 cops, federal agents and National Guard troops will be deployed.

Home grown terrorists need to be deported to Guantanamo Bay prison, just as international terrorists.

I wont put nothing pass these hateful badminded racist people, they will try to do something big, or some wannabe might also try to do something just to make a name for themselves. All they do is sit around and claim how they are the best and the product of society, meanwhile a lot of them are just doing the same things they blaming most black people for. Who pays for the welfare benefits when most of them get lots of kids to increase the white race, nowadays its all about getting an education and focus on positive goals in life, it dont matter by what color you are, but some people in society cant get pass skin color. Barack went to school and get an education and focus on his goals and he didnt let no one tell him he couldnt do it, why want to harm the guy for pursuing his dreams, these white supremacists should go pursue their dreams they already have more previleges and white rights, lets be fair and let other people live a happy life, barack worked hard for what he have now. He endured lots of criticisms and downright nasty accusations, now let the man work on his goals he already set them out for himself. These white supremacists and conservatives are loosers and want all the good things because of their color, but they dont want to work hard enough for it, if a black man try to reach success, they want to kill him,now does that show that the white supremacist are as supreme as they think they are? hell no, they are just a bunch of gutter rats looking to kill and cause havoc

barack cant be blamed for what william ayers did, so all the websites dont matter, they are full of lies and false accusations that people like mrupc created in their minds, if white supremacists dont like barack because of his color, of course they not going to say anything good about him, so we can expect white racists to say lies and spread those lies further and further, I agree with the first blogger put all these people that want to overthrow the country on some island off the coast of NY, they cant plan no excape, they will have to deal with all the aligators and strong current before they reach land. Terrorists is anyone who wants to overthrow and cause havoc in society, why blame internatioanal terrorists groups when American here in this land wants to do the same bad acts, just like Timothy Mcvae he was a terrorist and he did the same thing the we are fighting against in afganistan and Iraq, so put these home grown terrorists in some far off isolated island and let them stay there for years and years.

Racist chatter may be domestic terrorism? Culturist chatter is domestic ignorance.
George Orwell had it exactly right in Nineteen Eighty-four but for mis-spelling BOG Brother.
Prepare to be assimilated by the BOG. Resistance to Obamination is futile. BOG Brother is watching - OBEY!

MrRunPC,
Amen, brother!
Et Al: What did you all think would happen when you voted for someone so thoroughly ill-equipped to hold such a challenging position. He has called on the most scandalous and Clinton trailing people to fill these cabinet posts. The rule of law be dam-ed, ALL HAIL TO THE BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA KENYAN USURPER! Colleen, take your head out of the sand, the big wave is about to hit! (Oh, and by the way, learn to write and spell!)

Nobody wants to shoot the new looser president. It will be much more fun to watch the shrinking of individual rights and the imposition of more restrictions. The looser socialists will become more dependent on government and demand so much in government programs that they will bankrupt the government. The actual taxpayers will go on strike.
Watch while Pelosi and Reid line their pockets with stolen money. Watch while the treasury secretary doesn't have to pay taxes, but the IRS will come after everyone else. Watch while people are given homes next to you that they cannot afford. Watch and see health care become fair, equal waits, long waits, few services. Need testing then you will wait. Have a condition that may at all be self caused then you will have to jump through extra hoops to have any care. Health benefits will become few and far between.
But Obama will pay your mortgage and fill your gas tank, Yea right! He will allow his croneys to fill their pockets, short change the children's education while his daughters attend a posh private school. It's ultimate shuck and jive.
Shoot the illegal president elect? I think not, now the country will see socialism in action and they will reject it.

Any president who is this affraid of the American people simply shouldn't be the president. It screams of warning.
Racist chatter is the best they can do? Nevermind that he's completely corrupt or that he's the AntiChrist.
Here's a tip for these FBI agents. If he gets a bullet it will likely be from the same direction as JFK's. Higher up the chain rather than from us peasants. And there's really nothing you can do about that, is there?

Given the higher state of alert and the ridiculous $150,000,000 cost of this extravaganza, Obama should call off the public display and have the swearing-in at the Oval Office. The $150,000,000 certainly could be better spent on helping the needy affected by the current financial situation basically caused by the lack of oversight by Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd.

Shooting him would be counter-productive to his enemies. They would just be making a martyr out of him. He will ruin himself in short order. He already has IMO. But after these 4 years are over I'm pretty sure the vast majority will see it just as clearly and start taking their vote more seriously.

Here it comes, everything is racial again!
Obama, if that is his real name, is bi-racial, not black. If he fears the US public that much, then he did not even should of had considered running for President.
His biggest worry ought to be his Muslim brothers, who are all ready burning him in effigy in Iran and the Muslim brothers of his, being critical of him all ready.
In my opinion, he will be a target by the Muslim terrorist, i.e., his Muslim brothers! I expect, this comment will get rebuttals saying he is not Muslim, but in accordance with the Koran, born of Muslim blood, his black father who was Muslim, always a Muslim. Not to mention, his adoption by another Muslim father and his extended attendance in Muslim schools in Indonesia, under the name Barry Mohamed Soetoro and his legal adoption by this father, who also school him in Muslim ways.
That is where the threat will come from. In my opinion, the racist, or so called racial groups, are going to be content enough to watch him destroy himself and laugh at the stupidity of the American people who failed to do their proper studying of a self-admitted crack cocaine smoker and dealer!

Did any of you ever hear the old saying...People judge you by the company you keep...Surely your mother must have taught you that. The company he has kept through the years is scary. ... Reverend Wright...Ayers...are just a couple..Plus he lied...How does a person attend a church for so many years and never hear the hateful things Reverend Wright has said. Wright also thinks Louis Farrakhan 'epitomized greatness...Louis Farrakhan received the “Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr. Lifetime Achievement Trumpeteer” Award at the 2007 Trumpet Gala held on November 2, at the Hyatt Regency Chicago....Run for cover...Hold on folks...
I wonder if the lefties will complain about the cost of this inauguration the way they complained about the cost of President Bush's inauguration. I think not. Obama's inauguration expenses are likely to be to the tune of over $150 million, overshadowing the $42.3 million spent on George Bush's inauguration in 2005 .
.I think your idea Capn Jack is a wonderful idea...

Guess the chances that Malcolm Wiley, nog SS agent, was named after Malcolm Little X.

President Bush has declared Washington DC in a state of emergency. The emergency: the inauguration of Barack Obama. This promises to be the most expensive inauguration in history, costing over $150 million.
