I saw them walking up the street and harassing my neighbors as I walked up my front porch. White shirts, blue ties, dark pants, hair immaculately cut and combed.

(U//FOUO) Paralleling the current national climate, rightwing extremists during the 1990s exploited a variety of social issues and political themes to increase group [...]

…is naked hypocrisy.
The blogosphere is ablaze with buzz about topless and semi-nude photos of controversial anti-gay marriage activist Miss California Carrie Prejean.
