Obama is an Extremist according to MY definition.

Yes, but he has the force of government behind him. If he declares war on you, watch out. What can we do in return? Nothing but wait 2 years and pray for relief.

for elitists such as Barack Obama, the word “extremist” has a much broader meaning. In recent years, it has become a code word for those that do not have an “enlightened” view of the world. If your views on politics, religion or social issues are extremely different from the liberal, progressive views of “the mainstream” (as defined by the mainstream media and by “mainstream” politicians such as Barack Obama), then they consider you to be an extremist.

Someone needs to send this list to liberals who are still sane... folks like Jon Steward and Chuck Todd etc... people who are liberals but not evil totalitarian control freaks.

"anyone who suddenly buys weapons"

What's that supposed to mean? Today, I "suddenly" bought some groceries. Aren't all purchases, when viewed by an external observer, "sudden", even if they were made after considerable deliberation?

An “Extremist” is anyone who disagrees specifically with the Kenyan Pretender, or, generally with any Liberal.

from link:

“I want to be perfectly clear about this: training materials that portray Islam as a religion of violence or with a tendency towards violence are wrong, they are offensive, and they are contrary to everything that this president, this attorney general and Department of Justice stands for,” Holton said Wednesday. “They will not be tolerated.”

Such training materials “pose a significant threat to national security, because they play into the false narrative propagated by terrorists that the United States is at war with Islam,” he added

Glen Beck has been talking about this for 15 minutes or so. Apparently this will be a major topic of discussion for today.

“If Americans were honest with themselves they would acknowledge that the Republic is no more. We now live in a police state. If we do not recognize and resist this development, freedom and prosperity for all Americans will continue to deteriorate. All liberties in America today are under siege.

It didn’t happen overnight. It took many years of neglect for our liberties to be given away so casually for a promise of security from the politicians. The tragic part is that the more security was promised — physical and economic — the less liberty was protected.

With cradle-to-grave welfare protecting all citizens from any mistakes and a perpetual global war on terrorism, which a majority of Americans were convinced was absolutely necessary for our survival, our security and prosperity has been sacrificed.

It was all based on lies and ignorance. Many came to believe that their best interests were served by giving up a little freedom now and then to gain a better life.

The trap was set. At the beginning of a cycle that systematically undermines liberty with delusions of easy prosperity, the change may actually seem to be beneficial to a few. But to me that’s like excusing embezzlement as a road to leisure and wealth — eventually payment and punishment always come due. One cannot escape the fact that a society’s wealth cannot be sustained or increased without work and productive effort. Yes, some criminal elements can benefit for a while, but reality always sets in.

Reality is now setting in for America and for that matter for most of the world. The piper will get his due even if “the children” have to suffer. The deception of promising “success” has lasted for quite a while. It was accomplished by ever-increasing taxes, deficits, borrowing, and printing press money. In the meantime the policing powers of the federal government were systematically and significantly expanded. No one cared much, as there seemed to be enough “gravy” for the rich, the poor, the politicians, and the bureaucrats.”

Oh yea, Ron Paul is sooooo crazy.

I would hope I am. I believe that God created the universe and mankind. I believe that Jesus died on the Cross to atone for the sins of mankind. I believe that God had a hand in the founding of the United States of America and the United States of America was founded on principles set forth in the Holy Bible. I believe that we should be Governed according to the instructions set forth in the Constitution. I believe that free people should be able to own, possess, and use said arms in defense of themselves, their families, their Nation, and others in need should they so choose to do so. I believe that the Bible is true from cover to cover. I hate and despise Obama and the traitors that put him in the white House for what he has done to this Nation. A Nation that many people sacrificed their lives upon the field of battle to maintain.

Hopefully that is enough to put me on Obama's extremest list. Ditto the southern Poverty Law Center.
