Extremists?!?!

I'm so sick of hearing about how the biggest problem in our political system is the "radicals on both sides"... This is such do-nothing, bullshit rhetoric from "journalists" and "pundits", who have a vested interest in CONFLICT. There may exist, somewhere in this world, a "radical left". But, I challenge anyone to show me where radical leftists have proposed legislation that while serving their political interests, is not in the best interest of our economy. Equating the "radical left", which has been marginalized by mainstream media for years, with the Tea Party Republicans, who are the current darlings of both the mainstream media, and the MAINSTREAM REPUBLICAN PARTY, is asinine. When people talk about how the country is really made up of Centrists, who are turned off by the bickering of the two major parties, the FACT that's always conveniently ignored, is that the current Democratic Party IS the centrist party that everyone is dreaming of.
