So, they are saying that if you are Pro-life, pro gun, anti immigration you would also be considered an "right wing extremist" .
Seriously?! unsure.gif

Sooooooo... I always thought that an "extremist" was basically someone who defended their political beliefs with violence, like the pro lifer that blows up abortion clinics.

Am I off base here? I don't generally tend to really agree with anything that these radio personalities say, but really, aren't they pretty off base here? Or am I missing something?

Not to spark a political debate or anything.

luvmykids replied: I don't consider that extremist, although according to that definition I guess I would be one laugh.gif

JMHO of course, but I think it's just one more way the far lefties enjoy dramatizing the righties.

PrairieMom replied: Yeah, but I think that these righties are completely stirring the pot trying scare people.

JMHO but it's just one more way for the talk show hosts to generate heated discussions and keep themselves in a job. dry.gif

ITA. I think my eyes rolled so hard this morning they nearly got stuck. rolling_smile.gif

jcc64 replied: My advice? Don't listen to anything Glen Beck has to say.

DVFlyer replied: extremism= the actions of anyone who doesn't agree with you who lets you know in a way you don't agree with but would give back ten-fold.

TheOaf66 replied: well I guess I am an extremist then because I believe in all of those

coasterqueen replied:
I don't believe in all of those, but I'd be an extremist too. tongue.gif

luvmykids replied:
Thats exactly what I meant, just a little pot stirring.

TheOaf66 replied:
which are you against Karen?

coasterqueen replied:
Well, I'm more pro-choice, so not so pro-life, per se. ETA: I'm for guns, if one wants guns and really I'm for getting rid of illegal immigrants.

PrairieMom replied:
No, not the tea party folks, ITA with you, I think they are just exercising their rights. Completely fine with me, go for it. thumb.gif

I think the media that is freaking out about how they are " right wing extremists" Trying to scare the tea party folks are string the pot, looking for trouble.

luvmykids replied:
Oh gotcha, and ITA.

eta: If I'm a right wing extremist, then I sure live in the right place....there are/were about five tea parties within an hours drive laugh.gif

boyohboyohboy replied: I watch Glenn Beck and he has been off the wall a bit lately...

I never thought of myself as an extremist but guess this describes me here too..
makes me sound...very controversal for such a plain house wife!!Here I thought I was boring.

BAC'sMom replied:
That's what I think too. Some people are just plum feed up. I am looking forward to seeing what happens at the Alamo. biggrin.gif

I like Glenn Beck and watch him from time to time but that doesn't mean I am building a bomb shelter. His stories here lately about what is going on down on the border have been very enlightening. There's a real problem down here and it's about time the rest of the country realize that.

my2monkeyboys replied: I know the Homeland Security head issued a memo about this... essentially saying that people who agree with the aforementioned topics can be extremists... this from the lady who calls acts of terrorism man-made disasters. wacko.gif
