Nominated in the category of "Making a Mountain Out of A Molehill"... the ATF breaking up a 'skinhead plot' to assassinate Obama and 102 other blacks in Tennessee.
To me, a 'plot' needs to be something more than this, two idiots sitting around and dreaming about robbing a gun store and going on a rampage. This is a delusion, a skinhead's wet dream. Heck, if this is a 'plot', I have plotted to win the lottery (c'mon, 6,12,25,34,54 and powerball 33!), play rhythm guitar with The Who and dunk a basketball. And of course, they had no more of a chance of pulling it off than my dog would. Say what you will about government workers, I don't see the Secret Service standing by idly while these two skinheads showed up with some stolen guns (and, by definition, anyone stupid enough to be a skinhead is too stupid enough to get past the Secret Service). Of course, this is also the media's wet dream, as they've been waiting for a long time for another Timothy McVeigh and Eric Rudolph to come along to help them smear all conservatives as being hateful bigots. I bet it won't take long at all until some media mouthpiece tries to tie McCain to this and blaming him and his 'hateful' campaigning for having incited these two pieces of s**t.
