...Barack Obama as the first African-American President of the U.S. The Southern Poverty Law Center says that last year alone, the number of patriot and militia groups increased 244%, to 512. Though not necessarily racist, such groups fiercely oppose the federal government. In recent weeks, the health care debate seems to have fueled antigovernment sentiment that is far different from the last noticeable rise in extremist-group activity, after the 1992 election of Bill Clinton. "These shifts are a little more than some people can take," says Heidi Beirich, the Southern Poverty Law Center's director of research...

While Reid was their primary target, they had plenty of harsh words for the President, the health care law, government spending, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, socialism and pretty much anything they see as encroaching on their freedom. Since there had been speculation about possible violence and outrageous behavior in Searchlight, the event was comparatively tame - no mob marching down the highway with lit torches or calls for public insurrection against Obama. But rhetorical deviancy and ugly signs abounded - visible during Palin's speech were placards and T-shirts reading "Send Obuma (sic) Back to Kenya," "Harry: Searchlight Needs You, America...

Quippy and tart, she mocked...

After signing his landmark health care measure into law and restoking the fires of his presidency, Barack Obama took a victory lap in Iowa on March 25 and dared Republicans to put health care repeal at the center of their 2010 campaigns with the cheeky challenge "Go for it." Sarah Palin jumped in with both high-heeled feet and a rallying cry the equivalent of "Hell...

...Washington, many Republican leaders are now waffling and wavering over their previous aggressively negative stance on the health care bill, seeing peril in opposing the measure's more popular provisions. They are searching for a more nuanced and modulated message that will allow them to avoid the damning Party of No label, while still making their principles clear. But Sarah Palin doesn't really do nuance or modulation. Defiance is more her style, and this past weekend she used her folksy brand of full-throated opposition to dominate American politics yet again with appearances in Arizona and Nevada. The lady...
