MSNBC is on a commercial break right now and will air this segment after break. Wonder if FR will be named again. I hope so.

4. Yeah, I think CBS this morning made sure to emphasize there's been
an increase in both rightwing AND leftwing extremism on the Internet.

6. I'd really like to see the statistics in their claim
Left-wing extremism has increased? How, where, and what methods are involved in this increase?

I'm not saying that there isn't left-wing extremism (ALF and ELF come to mind, among others), but I'm at a loss to find any broad range of groups that are advocating violence or extremism, like so many on the right-wing do. Hell, even the supposed mainstream GOP'ers have the idea of implied uprising or violent resistance (see Teabagging or any right wing talk show).

7. I don't really see much "left-wing terrorism".
Other than the groups you mentioned, which don't really seem to be all that active. There just isn't story after story about individual "left-wing extremists" shooting innocent people in churches, museums, etc.

Obviously, there's a big difference between the two forms of "extremism".

8. Agreed. There is quite a contrast between the left and the right in so many ways
We advocate change through peaceful action and working within the framework of the system. Equality and opportunity for all. LOVE THY NEIGHBOR.


Then look at what they advocate and take part in.....

9. is "Whora" O'Donnell going to "balance" it?
Take an equal number of Repuke sites as there are "liberal hate sites" so that it looks balanced ... thus ignoring the overwhelming ratio of Repuke hate sites to lefty hate sites ...
