White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Thursday said Republicans in Congress have a long history of attempting to appeal to extremists.

"I think what is clear is that there has been a willingness on the part of Republicans in Congress to appeal to extremists in this country to try to build political support for their party," Earnest said.

Bill Ayers says hello. But hey, keep releasing those poor unfortunate GITMO prisoners. I mean, why embrace extremists in this country when you can embrace extremists in foreign countries!!!

Obama is correct. I extremely dislike he and Hillary Clinton’s policies!

I take this as a good sign. Trump is making inroads with black voters, and they’re soiling their diapers over it.

"I think what is clear is that there has been a willingness on the part of Republicans in Congress Democrats elected to Congress and elsewhere to appeal to extremists the lowest common denominatior in this country to try to build buy political support for their party," Earnest said.

Fixed!

Beyond ironic considering the kenyan started his political career in the living room of an unrepentant terrorist and murderer Bill “Guilty as sin, free as a bird” Ayers. If a bomb making murderer isn’t an “extremist” nothing is.

I guess I missed the response from all of the Republican leaders like McCain, Romney. Graham, Bush, etc calling BS on such public rubbish from the corrupt Obama folks.

They never counter punch and fight for us because they agree with the kenyan on this issue.

I wish someone in the presstitudes would summon the intestitutional fortitude to ask these WH freaks of nature to define extremists and to offer examples of republican extremists. If they say the gun crowd, then whats extremist about following the second amendment? If they say look at all the violence at Trump rallies, then how are Trump supporters extremist when Hillary and Soros are funding the protesters who are inciting the violence?

If it is extremism to HATE the leftist bent of this administration, then I’m an extremist.

Violate my civil rights under the color of supposed “governmental authority” and YOU AIN’T SEEN EXTREMISM YET!!!!

FU BHO; and all your controllers and sycophants, too. I’ve had enough.
