Here is an interesting article I found on CNN's website:
http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/04/14/extremism.report/
Basically, it says that everyone should watch out for right-wing extremist groups, especially with the election of the first African-American president who happens to be left-leaning.
Two points:
1. Doesn't the government need to worry about a lot more important issues than the Republican Party?
2. You will notice that the Department of Homeland Security never released any documents like this during the eight years George W. Bush was in office despite the rediculous anti-Bush sentiment that went throughout the country.

Well, to be fair, "right-wing extremists" does not by any means equal "Republican Party." CNN has a lot of rules for terms they have to use, and it seems that "right-wing extremists" is equivalent to neo-Nazis, KKK, etc. In other words, hate groups. The problem is that the article only uses the umbrella term and doesn't specify, which I think is bad journalism. You may be right about your second point, though.
