The RNC Is Can Now Be Classified As A Terrorist Organization

That's a pretty bold claim, isn't it? Let's take a look at the reasoning behind it.

The Department Of Homeland Security has issued a new security bulletin which lists the following tactics that eco-terrorists might employ. From TPM Muckraker:

- "organizing protests"
- "flyer distribution"
- "inundating computers with e-mails"
- "tying up phone lines to prevent legitimate calls"
- "sending continuous faxes in order to drain the ink supply from company fax machines"

The common name for the bold portion is called phone jamming, and the RNC has been paying for the defense of James Tobin, who ran a phone jamming operation during the 2002 New Hampshire Senatorial election while working for the RNC.

So there you have it. An employee of the RNC engages in what DHS says is a known terrorist tactic, and then they pays his attorney. A clear cut case of an organization with terrorist ties. I guess the Justice Department should immediately freeze all their assets.
