Today's Wall Street Journal's editorial should make clear that  
terrorism is
not a slippery slope at all. It's a cliff that conservatives have  
already
jumped off.

Today's WSJ editorial states that extremist environmentalists who attack
property are terrorists. This makes clear that there is no difference
between domestic law enforcement engaged in protecting property and the
broad range of Homeland Security issues.

I guess this means that Eco-terrorists, as the WSJ labels them,  
should be
considered for kidnapping to foreign bases for interrogation, certainly
wiretapped and they merit the use of our limited DHS resources. I'm
certainly glad we have the FBI on this.

I understand that once we all realize they're terrorists, they should  
not be
excluded for civil liberty protections since an assault on property  
can also
harm people and harming people is a terrorist tactic.

Didn't the Secretary of Education suggest that the NEA were  
terrorists too?

Come to think of it, I find some rock music frighteningly bad....
