I am FAR-LEFT
I originally thought far-left was i.e what Bill Ayers and the Weather Underground were in the 60's, so I found the term a bit insulting for committed democrats like myself, but since BillO the Clown , his followers and some DINOS have started abusing the term , I think it's time for me to start feeling proud to be called far-left :

- If Bill O'reilly represents the new center in our politics, I'm more than happy to be far left.

-If calling for Bush&Co to be impeached for their crimes is somehow beeing far-left, I'm more than happy to be far-left .

-If anyone who disapproves of the dumb and senseless wars in Iraq AND Afghanistan is far-left, I'm more than happy to be far-left.

-If opposing the rip-off that is Paulson's bailout plan is somehow beeing far-left, I'm more than happy to be far-left.

- If finding Bush's "war on terror" absurd is somehow beeing far-left, I'm indeed far-left.

...etc

1. If pointing out the obvious: that Sarah Palin is a flaming idiot means being far-left then
bust out the Das Kapital.

4. Bill O'reilly claims a lot of stuff.
So does Rush, and the other far right wackos. It doesn't mean a thing. They want to make everyone think that the democrats are going to go "far far left" with Obama in charge, and they need to try and paint the picture that they are the ons in the "center"! It's nothing more than their every day lie that spew on their shows! I have a brother in law that is a Jehovah's Witness. They "claim" to be neutral when it comes to politics, and they don't vote. I was talking with him and about the condition of the country and he started to blame it all on the democrats. He said that Bush "followed" them and let them do what they wanted! I disagreed and he got so mad he couldn't even talk! He listens to Rush everyday and has been doing so since the idiot started his radio show. My brother in law still "claims" to be neutral, but anyone who listens to Rush day after day and year after year are "far right", and nowhere near center, or neutral!

There is indeed a far left, and some on DU could qualify, but not on these criteria.
