Memo to the fear-mongers

The House Minority Leader John Boehner says that bringing Guantanamo detainees to the United States for trial and future detention is “…the first step in the Democrats’ plan to import terrorists into America.” I’d like to point out to Mr. Boehner that we don’t need to import any terrorists because we’re breeding them, incubating them, nourishing and growing and arming them right here at home.

Maybe Boehner is just confused. In his world, a terrorist is brown and Muslim. The reality is that the domestic Boogeyman looks a whole lot more like the reflection Boehner must see in the mirror each morning: Angry and pink-faced and pent-up and somehow disenfranchised.
