DHS report targeting the Rightwing a symptom of Obama administration persecution complex and a threat to freedom of speech

The DHS report targeting the Rightwing is a symptom of the Obama administrations persecution complex and is a threat to freedom of speech.
From the report, p.2:
Rightwing extremism in the United States can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups), and those that are mainly antigovernment, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration.
Looks like the Obama administration has already developed a persecution complex. Barack Obama displayed a very thin skin in the course of the presidential election campaign. He took aim at Sean Hannity of Fox News both during and in the aftermath of the campaign. Joe the Plumber was devoured by Obama acolytes and the liberal media. His crime: He dared to ask Barack the hard question on taxation. Obama hatchet men/women have attacked and continue to attack Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin . Obama is displaying a keen sense of insecurity. The president has failed to roll with the punches thereby weakening his own position and authority.

The DHS definition of right wing extremism gives grave cause for concern. It is becoming increasingly apparent that those on the right who dare to criticize this left wing administration will be targeted for attack by Obama himself, his subordinates and liberal media hatchet men and women.
Apparently you are a rightwing extremist if you favour greater local/state authority over federal authority. If you are anti government you may be labelled a right wing extremist. Single issue groups such as anti abortion groups or anti immigration groups will be deemed right wing extremists. Journalists such as Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannitty who have taken a strong line on illegal immigration may be deemed rightwing extremists. Sarah Palin who has taken a strong line on illegal immigration and abortion may be deemed a rightwing extremist. Presumably Mike Huckabee will qualify on the abortion issue whilst Newt Gingrich will register on the tax issue. Obviously the liberal/socialist big brother is watching. Undoubtedly the Teaparty tax protesters will qualify for special attention.
America is on the slippery slope to major erosion of freedom of speech if the Obama administration gets its way. Freedom of speech is the oxygen, which fuels democracy. Tamper with it at your peril

Now lets reword the extract quoted above:

Leftwing extremism in the United States can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious groups), and those that are mainly pro government, favouring greater federal authority at the expense of state or local authority. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as pro-abortion extremists or proponents of a liberal immigration policy

Barack Obama himself would qualify as a leftwing pro-abortion extremist. Bill Maher would qualify as a leftwing extremist who persistently ridicules the Catholic Church. Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi who favour massive increases in government expenditure would also qualify as left wing extremists.

This left wing administration is losing its way. All threats to free speech must be stymied.
