he found the climate was similar to the pre-oklahoma city bombing of '94.you find that in people's feelings about government? >> well i think it's very tempting to say that the poll findings here are a measure of the degree of dangerous extremism. but i think you have to take some pause. first of all, 99.999% of these people who say they're angry are not violent and disposed to violence. second people are entitled to express angry opinions. the real problem is there's now a larger audience for emotional , radical statements about government. that can unsettle the unsettled. i'd say it's really hard to parse that issue. >> warner: so i know predictions are very difficult. i'm not asking you to predict but what can you glean from all this data in here that might impact the november elections? i mean you said both parties come in for it in this. what can you tell? >> what we see is that the independents who are the swing voters , a segment of them who are most energized are those who are frustrated with government and the people who are frustrated with governm

this is the anniversary of the, you know, bombing in oklahoma city.ing about this. does that worry you? >> well, i mean, i guess there are things to be concerned about, but i think we have to pay attention to the right things. we have had a tendency in the last ten years to be really very concerned about insurging violence. sometimes what we forget is that state-sponsored violence can be much more devastating. it seems to me that we do have some degree of revival in the militia movement, which emerged in the 1990s and then really went dormant during the bush administration. we do see some increase in the number of militia group, but nothing close to what was happening in the 1990s. so there again, although there are groups like the southern poverty law center that are ringing the bells of warning, i think they're exaggerating the actual degree of what's happening. >> robert churchill, we really appreciate your time. our apologies to our viewers and you as well that our other guest didn't show up. many thanks. >>> we are going to take a look at whether

it had with the militia movement even before oklahoma city. it's also the 235th anniversary of lexington and concord. but there's a history. waco occurred on april 19. that is what inspired timothy mcveigh to murder 168 men, women and children in oklahoma city. and a long series of events. the larger themes are one of resistance, and vulnerability. but we have an obligation to learn from our history. it's not enough just to say it's a coincidence. it's about accepting responsibility for decisions made and learning from mistakes of our past and realizing the last time we saw a massive increase in militia movements, it did not end well. we need to be careful about the forces we're playing with sometimes. >> just for accuracy, they were saying it's because of patriots day they were protesting on. >> that's right. >> which you mentioned are the battles of lexington. >> that's exactly right. you do see, they wrapped themselves up in the american flag, as defenders of the american revolution, true defenders of the american revolution. the problem wi

murrah building in oklahoma city, oklahoma, that killed 160 people. this man viewed the federal government as such a threat it justified mass murder. i applaud my colleague from oklahoma for her resolution because it serves as a reminder that right-wing anti-government extremist groups are on the rise today. only two weeks ago members of the so-called christian militia in michigan were arrested by the f.b.i. for plotting to kill law enforcement officers in the hopes of inciting an anti-government uprising. a national civil rights organization has documented a growing number of hate groups in america, and states, quote, they are driven largely by an angry backlash against nonwhite, immigration, economic meltdown and the decline to power of an african-american president. in one word, racism. the individuals associated with the patriot movement during the hay days during the 1990's produced an enormous amount of violence. most dramatically, the oklahoma city bombing. as the movement has exploited -- exploded, so has the reaches of its ideas. aided and ab

the anniversary of oklahoma city? >> part of it is just the anniversary. part of it is some of the kind of rhetoric we've heard sarah palin say that her supporters shouldn't relax or retreat, they should reload. >> greta: a very alaskan-type term one we don't use in the lower 48. >> she was to the talking about people getting guns and attacking someone. there has been this intense rhetoric. and there are some -- fringes, i guess of the tea party movement people who talk of revolution and things like that i think is more of an effort to try to sort of pretar the tea party movement with the label of being violent. when nothing in fact has happened. >> greta: which is also dangerous. >> it is. >> greta: is also wrong. the violence is wrong. provoking violence is wrong. and using our fears from past events is wrong too. >> you shouldn't put things in people's minds. that's all there is to it. there has been i think since the beginning, there were talks about how president obama was facing more threats than any other president in history. the secret service sai

were they right to link the oklahoma bombing to anger? >> i don't know. i think his heart was probably in the right place. i think that is a stretch to relate present anger to the oklahoma city bombing. i think these articles can do more harm than good. instead of looking it like we are putting our chest out and moving forward it makes us look vulnerable still. i don't think we should ever put that out there to the public because our enemies can read that and say, they are still reeling about this. this is great. >> that's a very per accept tiff point. diana, weigh in. >> i think bill clinton is an eloquent speaker. he usually can service his audience and everybody likes to hear what he has to say. this is the wrong time and wrong place. i understand where the sentiment was. >> quick question, does he text you as well? >> actually yes. about meditation and yoga. >> he feels your pain. >> we try to work out as much as possible. name dropping greg and i are together. >>> what do we have to gain by listening to more train? try everything, you stupid jerk ing

proceeded oklahoma city and warning against some of the political rhetoric now.s what the former president had to say today. >> before the bombing occurred, there was a sort of fever in america. the fabric of american life had been unraveling. there was a lot of violence in our cities. there was a rise of gang violence in particular. what we learned from oklahoma city is not that we should gag each other or that we should reduce our passion for the positions we hold, but that the words we use really do matter because there are, there's this vast echo chamber and they go across space and they fall on the serious and the delirious alike. >> in a reference in a "new york times" article yesterday proceeding this event today, he talked about some of the rhetoric frankly, from the protests, the tea party protests, and michele bachmann. her particular use of the word, gangster, to reflect our government. this was michele bachmann yesterday. >> i think they don't realize that your iq scores are way above average. we're on to them. we're on to this gangster government. he

the gentleman from oklahoma. mr. boren: i'd like to inquire of the gentlelady if she has additional speakers. mrs. mcmorris rodgers: mr. speaker, i am going to make some remarks. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from washington is recognized. mrs. mcmorris rodgers: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise in support of this resolution, honoring the life of wilma mankiller, and i wish to associate myself with the remarks of the previous speakers. i express the condolences of the house of representatives on her passing. there are many of us who did not have the opportunity to meet wilma mankiller, yet as we deal with indian affairs in congress, all of us, nonetheless, touch some part of the legacy of her accomplishments she left the great nation -- the great cherokee nation and indian country. in a recent article on her death, cherokee chief chad smith is quoted as saying she was a, quote, patriot, for the cherokee nation. she received the presidential medal of freedom from president bill clinton in recognition for her su

learned through the events that culminated in the oklahoma city bombing, which killed 185 people, that you have to pay attention not only to groups, but to individuals, that you have to infiltrate early. they also have said in a bulletin as recently as six months ago that as good as they are at getting into these groups through electronic means, the groups have gotten better at encrypting their communications and making it harder for the government to track. the government has new weapons as well, thanks to the war on terror. >> michael, there are some people who felt that at some psychological level, the aftermath of the oklahoma city bombing was where bill clinton found his footing, his comeback, in the struggle he was undergoing with republicans about the size and role of government, whether that was fair to republicans or not. do you see any evidence that this movement, in the absence of anything approaching what's happened in oklahoma city, will have a political impact, anything that democrats want to try to use or that republicans fear in terms of being associated somehow with pe

but we like oklahoma guys. that would be my guess. >> there has been controversy in the last few days in -- regarding cal ripken's potential involvement with the orioles after it was said that peter angelos shot down cal's request to work for the team because he did not want him to get credit for turning around the orioles. it did not make sense to me and ripken said today that the story was "not true." he said he has had discussions with peter angelos about joining the discussion -- the organization and will continue than europe's -- and will continue those discussions. to have a winning streak you have to win more than one game in a row. the orioles have not been able to utter the words "winning streak" this year. they sent their rookie pitcher to the mound with the idea of ending a nine-game losing streak he did just that. ty wigginton said enough of not scoring any runs. he knocked in four all by himself. the team has averaged just three runs per game all year. and guess what, the bullpen did not blow it? -

there is nothing like oklahoma city in terms of the left-wing criticism of the president.s is nothing like militia movement, ruby ridge, all of that, something we know historically has atasmed itself to strong vehement violent rhetoric coming from the right. what president clinton said in his remarks is there is a lot of unemployment right now. we have the biggest amount of long-term, six months or plus unemployment in american history. and a will the of people are angry, upset, especially. >> bill: yeah, but, juan, look, look, you are making a big mistake here, juan, i'm going to have to scold you here. forget about the weather underground in the 60's? forget about the environmental nuts who are burning houses down and all of that? >> no, you are right. >> bill: nuts are nuts, loons are loons. you forget about the guy who put the bomb in the mailboxes, the unabomber. i mean, nuts are nuts. now, in this case, mary katharine, you got a former president of the united states saying whoa, wait a minute now, tea party people and radio commentators, you may create another tim mc
