I have long said That Al Dubya (as in G Dubya Bush) is far more dangerous, when it comes to terrorism in the US, than Al Qaeda ever was. For out latest example, here’s a white supremacist hate-crime, how his tea party mayor supports him, his sordid history, and how the hate groups that the Republican Party has embraced are linked together in a terror network.
The mayor of a small Missouri town has mostly nice things to say about the white supremacist accused of killing three people at Jewish facilities last weekend.
Marionville, Mo. Mayor Dan Clevenger spoke warmly this week of Frazier Glenn Miller, who allegedly went on a killing rampage on Sunday in Overland Park, Kan.
"He was always nice and friendly and respectful of elder people, you know, he respected his elders greatly. As long as they were the same color as him," Clevenger said while laughing, according to television station KSPR. "Very fair and honest and never had a bit of problems out of him."
Clevenger said he sympathized with some of Miller’s views, but didn’t like to broadcast that.
"Kind of agreed with him on some things but, I don’t like to express that too much," Clevenger, the owner of a local repair shop, said… [emphasis added]
Inserted from <TPM>
Miller is not the lone nut-job the media is making him not to be, but part of a well organized web of terror.
Rachel Maddow had more to say about Miller, after an extensive discussion of some of his allies.
I think it’s long past time to release that Homeland Security report on rabid right terrorism, r4egardless of Republican objections. Furthermore, DOJ needs to return to indicting these terrorists for sedition, in spite of their Republican support.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Here is how they describe themselves on their town's website ~ "Marionville is a charming community located in the heart of the Ozarks in Lawrence County, Southwest Missouri. Marionville has a population of white squirrels, which is one of a handful of such populations in the United States." I don't think I'd call them charming. And, white squirrels are joined by white bigotsas denizens. Beware if you visit. It is probably a stronghold of the KKK. It's a sin that Clevenger is Mayor but in a town where over 95% of the population is white, it's all we can expect. They are probably mostly TeaPublicanTs too.
Yes. It's high time seditionists were prosecuted. I still don't understand why Holder and the DOJ caves so quickly to our native terrorists.
Dang! Even the sqauirrels have to be white? 🙁
Amazing, isn't it? I didn't know there were white squirrels except albinos.
Want to protest the government then please do, in any organized and honest matter that makes you feel good. When guns of any kind become a part of that protest it moves from being a protest to armed insurgency. Armed insurgency needs to be dealt with quickly and effectively. We tend to think of armed insurgents as happening in other countries like, Burma, the Philippines, and of course in Syria. Now our government must treat these self appointed "patriots" as the terrorists they clearly are. Next time, just call out the National Guard, end this immediately. We are coddling them and pretending they have a right to break the law, they do not.
Miller deserves only one thing from us, to spend the last of his years in a cold dark prison cell. He is responsible for many other terror acts over the years and this can not be tolerated. He is nice as long you are the same color and religion, that is not a nice person, that is vile. That is the antithesis of every thing the US stands for. Freedom is not selective by any measure, it means an open and honest society. People like Miller poison the well for all of us. Should the state decide he has earned the death penalty, than I would say he has over his many years as a terrorist, earned that final end.
The Aryan Nation Church is nothing but a front for illegal activities that include but are not limited to counterfeiting, drug running and any enterprise that makes money on the Black Market. Eastern Washington state, Idaho, Montana and a few other states have long harbored these groups. We need not be meek when addressing groups of terrorist. Take them down and end this, ending law and order as we know it is part of their agenda.
If any republican elected official wishes to stand up for these terrorists, let them do so loudly and be held accountable for their own act of treason.
How quickly and loudly US citizens will demand the government take down any foreign terror group but will defend those who are home grown. Hypocrisy of the worst kind.
Thanks TC – I hope you are feeling better.
You know why Rethuglicans aren't a bit concerned about white Terrorists like Frazier Glenn Miller?
Why should they be? It's their BASE!
One small piece of good news: Mayor Clevenger is coming <a href="http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/marionville-mayor-dan-clevenger-impeachment-frazier-glenn-miller">under pressure to step down</a>. Less encouraging: he was elected even after some of his statements had become public.
He was elected because over 95% of the residents are "white like him".
Well, Rachel in covering the 1987 sedition trial makes a pretty good point, without exactly saying it, that when you can't get a conviction, you not only leave the perpetrator on the street to terrorize some more, but you make yourself a prime target. I would love to see these people imprisoned for life, but I would hate to see the best and brightest in our law enforcement, which is noticeably short on best and brightest, assassinated trying to accomplish that. I don't see that as an improvement in our society.
Additionally, since these "people" tend to hang together, in a state like Nevada (I know this isn't about that but it is in all our minds), how do you know the National Guard will even be on the right side? How do you know they won't side with the seditionists? Nameless is right that the mob is the Republican base.
No, I don't have a solution. I do agree that DHS needs to release the right wing terrorism report, even though it may be incomplete. Or there needs to be a whistleblower who will. But I don't blame anyone who doesn't want to blow the whistle in the current climate in the US.
Missouri is SO RepubliCON (though most can't spell it, so TeaBaggers are friends & family Tweeters!)..only St. Louis is heavily Democrat (you know why..;) Springfield, MO. is full of Evangelical types. We lived there about two months way back in 76 & every freakin' day a "Baptist" would come by trying to "save me", usually with a converted Catholic in tow – I "might" have been impressed if the convert had been Jewish or Budist… My husband's dad & step-mom & her kids lived there. It was hilarious when Jimmy Carter won the election! 🙂
One small nit to pick: Along with St. Louis, Kansas City (my stomping ground0 is a Democratic Party stronghold. And even Boone county (where the flagship U of Missouri is located in Columbia) is solid Democratic.
The rest of the state is pretty red.
I still can't get sound on your videos, TC, trying everything, so far nothing works.
I saw the mayor on a news report today, everything he said screamed "racist" and I am sure he is fully supported by most of his constituents. I grew up in one of the few small towns in Ky that had several different races, brought there for the mining jobs. I am grateful for that because I knew people who didn't look like me at an early age. Sadly, too many communities are not like that and racism seems to be inherent in communities that don't have diversity.
Frazier Glenn Miller is a terrorist and should be treated as such.
Edie, if you click the YouTubo logo at on the bottom border of the video near the right corner, it will take you to the video on YouTube. If you can't hear it there, you need someone techy to have a look at your computer.
I'm p[etty sure the problem is not with this site, because I can hear it, and nobody else appears to be having the problem.
Is your sound working for other videos?
Tc, it is a problem with my computer. YouTube is the only site that has no sound, I get it for the rest. When I havemore time, I will try to fix it.
All seditionists and home grown terrorists should be treated as such and prosecuted and not let off the hook – what is the government doing, trying to encourage and enable them? Most bewildering!
To everyone who suggested I take a Cat Nap…
I did. I overslept. I'm runnung WAY late. It's YOUR fault!! 😉
You should have no regrets, you needed the nap.
I heard hizzoner Mayor Clevenger is being impeached by his constituents.
Truth be Told.
