[quote=Hatfield]Oh give me a break. “Dangerous extremist,” my ass. That you would say this about AT MOST a moderate leftist says way more about you than it does him. Go back to your AM talk radio.

“Moderate leftist”? Uh, okay, I’ll bite. What do YOU consider an “extreme leftist”?
He’s extensively refashioning our banking, finance and auto industries, but he’s a moderate according to you. In his first five months in office, he’s outstripped the profligacy of the BushCo years (which took seven years to accumulate) and his policies will cost us trillions of dollars in future obligations.
He’s a populist demagogue in the worst sense of the word and contained in all of his soaring oratory about “Hope” and “Change” are all the necessary symbols and rhetoric of a dyed-in-the-wool Leftist.
Of course, according to Frank Rich of the NYT, anyone who disagrees with Dear Leader is a right-wing extremist, dead set on overthrowing our government by force. Which then sets the stage to disarm the country, because those pesky guns are dangerous.
He’s not a moderate in any sense of the word. Parse the words carefully, amigo, because they mean things.
