The Far Right And The Far Left

We Need To Punch Back Against The Extremes Of Both The Left And The Right And Define The Terms Of The Debate Ourselves.

Whats Different Now Is That While Political Leaders Used To Give Talking Points To Talk Radio, Now Talk-radio Hosts Are Giving Talking Points To Political Leaders. Its All Part Of The Suffocating Spin Cycle Were In. In Media, Politics And Publishing, The Conventional Wisdom Is To Play To This Base.

I Believe That The Far-right And The Far-left Can Be Equally Insane - But There's No Question That In The First Years Of The Obama Administration, The Far-right Has Been Far Crazier. In Part, This Comes From Parties Being Out Of Power - Without The Responsibility Of Governing To Ground Them, The Activists And The Ideologues Take Over.

Politics Follows The Lines Of Physics: Every Action Creates An Equal And Opposite Reaction.

A Wingnut Is Someone On The Far-right Wing Or Far-left Wing Of The Political Spectrum - The Professional Partisans, The Unhinged Activists And The Paranoid Conspiracy Theorists. They're The People Who Always Try To Divide Rather Than Unite Us.
