Seaver, you've got me at a disadvantage this afternoon. I'm posting this as I am in the beginning of a long anticipated revisit to Laguna Beach. The waves are high and spraying a refreshing mist into the sun warmed air, cooling my skin and my fervor to post in objection to your points. I'll leave it, for now, with this. Unless you sign on to the idea that the 30 percent who still think Bush is performing satisfactorily in his job are taking an extreme position, and I don't....it's still too large a number to be considered "on the fringe.... extreme"....so I have to agree with dux. I don't see how any opinion garnering 30 percent or more of the adult population's support can properly be called extreme if there are a persuasive collection of facts and court rulings that support the opinion. If however, a popular opinion is at odds with math....outsized oil consumption or unsustainable government deficits or international law, preemptive war are examples.... the opinions you say I hold seem less extreme...almost trivial....in comparison. Screw it...let's stick our piggies into the pounding surf!
