I see none of C-D's far left extremists are fessing up in the poll. There are plenty of them, so why no "far left" votes?

Because they aren't actually far left extremists. You calling them that and believing in all your heart that they are does not make it so anymore than a Democrat without an argument accuses a conservative of being racist and sexist without any reason to believe that.

This is an issue on this forum. Anyone who disagrees with you becomes a radical, and that's simply not how it works.

I'm a centrist compared to most of you moonbats. The moonbats call me extremist because I see through your failed pResident. It's the politics of personal destruction - the only politics Democrats are good at.

Yeah, that didn't sound even remotely centrist.

And why call me a moonbat? I said it was a problem the forum as a whole. It's not exclusively a conservative issue. Liberals do it too.

I was more referring to bobtn, but should have avoided the blanket statement.

What's your stance in the scale or spectrum?
What do you define as social moderate ????

How about authoritarian vs libertarian? You could lean on the right side of the spectrum and be a principled defender of individual rights and want to defend their rights against the abuses from the powerful. Or you can be like most right wingers on this forum and be a craven, useless worshipper of authority. A prick towards those below you and a ass kisser to those above.

It is nice to see a thread that actually mentions the "center". All those Cons versus Lib threads get crazy.
