The "far" left are the ones that will actually speak their minds and write their congressmen/congresswomen and protest in the streets. They are the ones that will go on TV and argue their case. There is a "far" right as well.

It isn't a bad term to be far left or far right, but it means that you have a vision of the way things should be done and when there is no good reason or explanation for doing something counter to your vision you will get upset. It is very hard, if not impossible to change these people's minds.

And on the tax cut issue, Obama campaigned on this at every stop. There has to be something else going on that made him change his mind, yet he isn't explaining it very well.
