I set up examples (As) that occurred over the last seven years.

But your response is typical of the right.....pretend they never happened or suggest we get past them (as others here often suggest in order to avoid a discussion) and move on because Bush is out of office in nine months.

So, yes, you can pick C...thats what I would expect.

I think its reasonable to conclude that the extremists are those who support spying on citizens, torturing foreign nationals, a president who ignores the system of checks and balances, a government that operates in secret, etc...and those supporters have been on the right.

Those on the left are the ones who are willing to question these actions and most polls suggest that such positions represent the positions of a majority of moderates as well.

Ustwo (or otto or seaver):
Three mysteries that remains for me:

Why do you consider positions that represent both the left and the center to be extreme?

How can constitutional conservatives support these actions? (I would think they would be mad as hell and not want to take it any more.)

Why do you think it is an extreme position (held by nearly 70% of the public) to call for a new strategy in Iraq, including the beginning of a phased redeployment of US troops?

perhaps you can enlighten me.

late addition:
Congrats to Don Cazayoux, a Democrat who won a special congressional election in Louisiana today, taking a seat Republicans have held since 1974.
