Right wing nut-jobs and left wing radical extremists consider this and comment:?
"Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left." — Clint Eastwoo
I appoligise for dropping the "d" from Eastwood. Regardless, I wanted to respond to the last guy who claims that only conservatives believe in and value our Constitution and the government so created. ALL Americans believe in the Constitution. That's what makes us Americans! That same Constitution created the government we have today, including the President and the Congress we have today. Vilifying members of Congress or the President as "evil" because their politics are different from your own is EXTREME. Thinking that only those people who think like you are "real Americans" is EXTREME. Intolerance of religions or political thought is not only extreme, but also absolutely anathema to the American ideal.
I also must add that the founders of this country were anything but conservative. That distinction goes to the Tories who were loyal to King George. Instead, they were raging Radicals.

The problem with that quote is what is defined as "right-wing extremism".
Because, currently, if you believe in the Constitution, if you believe in the limited government it created, if you believe that fiscal restraint by government is a good thing, and in self-governance of the people and personal responsibility, then you are labeled a "right-wing extremist".
By today's labels, the entire group of founding fathers would be considered "right-wing extremists."

Clint Eastwood is a very intelligent man, I like the quote.
Sadly, no extremists will likely read this.
They're too paranoid to expose themselves here.
