UPDATE II: I have found no corroboration. But what I wrote does express my opinion of the security apparatus in this nation, so I'm leaving it up, albeit marked-out in spots. Rule #2 applies.

No, I am not lining that out. The Department of Homeland Security is the Gestapo nowadays. Talking about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights is now, to the Gestapo, the same as committing acts of espionage and terror.
Let me state that, again:
If you talk about freedom and liberty in terms that are not flattering to Der Monkey Fuhrer, the Department of Homeland Security will accuse you of being a terrorist and a spy.
Other than degree, how are they different from the Gestapo and the KGB?
The Bush Administration has thoroughly betrayed the legacy bequeathed to us by the Founding Fathers. The Bush Administration has betrayed all of those who fought and suffered and endured and died to win our freedoms and liberties and all of those who have fought and died to keep it.
The Bush Administration and their goons in the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice and almost every other department within the Federal government have committed treason against the Constitution.
They swore an oath to "preserve and protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." They did not swear an oath to defend "the Homeland" or "George W. Bush."
Their loyalty should properly be to the Constitution, for that is what they swore. They are, therefore, betraying the Constitution.
They are the traitors

A word of warning. Alex Jones is not a reputable source. It doesn't matter how big a kook you are or how unverifiable your shit is, he'll just parrot it unthinkingly if it fits with his agenda. I have personal knowledge of a time when he did this in a very hurtful way about someone who had recently died, uncritically forwarding claims that "government ninjas" had scaled to the balcony on the second story of this person's home and terrified the person in his bedroom, and that said "government ninjas" had killed this person. Only problem: THIS PERSON LIVED IN A ONE BEDROOM HOME WITH A FLAT ROOF! And ate a gun because he was being foreclosed and evicted, not because of any "government ninjas".
In other words, believe anything you hear or see at Alex Jone's site only if you can verify it in some way somehow. From personal experience, he simply is too gullible when people make these outrageous claims -- or maybe just deliberately looks the other way. And if someone won't even use their whole name on his show... dude. TOO bogus, by half!

Some like me, are likely to call Homeland with a bit of a chip on their shoulders...I urge you to validate this story or pull it with an apology. That isn't beyond you and gains credibility. Leaving a bad piece threatens it.

Pulling anything posted to an Internet blog is futile, jgug1. It will *always* be out there for anyone who wants to find it.
I put a caveat at the lead-in to it, but that is all I will do. I can't run from what I have posted.
As a friend and an admirer and a true believer, Earth-Bound Misfit, I urge you once again to validate it or put up a retraction if you cannot validate it. Strongly embracing a mistake and doing a mia culpa is much stronger than digging in toes. Anyone can make a mistake. Really big people acknowledge their errors without flinching.
Googling various phrases gets a bunch of hits but it may be a circle, all originating with the story you put up. Trying to find it on a debunking site (Snopes) was not productive.
You done good. It's why I love you:-)
