I would hardly consider the things I read here "extremist" or "racist". A difference in political views or philosophies on life that don't follow the same views as your own do not make them racist or extreme. I may not agree with all the articles that get posted here but I do find most of them interesting or amusing while I'm having my morning coffee or my evening Capn Morgan and coke but to question someones eduction based on the fact that they don't agree with you is in my opinion not very educated. Take for example the health care debate. There have been several threads started and opinions stated on that topic recently. The thing I find ironic is you tend to launch personal attacks on anyone who post an article or an opinion that differs from your point of view but I have yet to see you engage anyone in any real debate are post an article that supports your stance. I don't get your approach but as you said "to each his own".
