This weblog is named The Moderate Voice, but what does one do when it seems that in defense of the indefensible, one wing has gone beyond all reason?
In my case, and in deference to Joe’s aim of balanced writing, instead of cross-posting, I write about it on my own weblog, and warn those cheeleaders of the far-right-wing that what I have written will not please them.
In my opinion (and NOT necessarily that of the owner of this weblog, I want to make that clear), both the far-left-wing and the far-right-wing are equally guilty of excessive partisanship, not to mention irrational and destructive extremism, but with the right-wing currently in power, their extemism is doing far more damage than I fear is realized by patriots of all stripes.
