I support the idea of a balanced budget amendment. I support the idea of term limits. I support the idea of not being the World's policeman. I indifferent (leaning towards support) on the idea of legalizing marijuana.
I do not support a woman's "choice" to kill a baby.

QuoteYeah. My far right wing perspective just wants a constitutional amendment for balanced budget and term limits....oh and to stop being the world's policeman....and legalized marijuana...and gay marriage and choice for women. I can understand how you'd think that's extremist right wing thinking....seen through the prism of a left wing radical extremist.

...pointing out that someone is extreme is not a smear, it's an observation.
For wanting to join the rest of the industrialized world in providing the equivalent of Medicare for everyone? Well, when you consider that Obamacare's mandated health insurance was invented at the right wing American Enterprise Institute, that Bob Dole ran for president promoting it, and that before that Richard Nixon wanted mandated employer provided health care, then no, I don't think Bernie's much radical.
And when Bernie supports Reagan's Social Security withholding rate - adjusted for inflation, and Kennedy's minimum wage - adjusted for inflation, not to mention Richard Nixon's EPA, I'm not seeing the what's so radical.
Although from your far right-wing perspective, I can understand why you might disagree.
