The right has gone farther and farther right ever since the
Republicans courted the right wing Christian vote. Now they're so
far off to the right they are having contests about who is whacky
enough to be elected.

Obama has been governing from the center the whole time. He's no
liberal, either. Ask anyone on the left, or any liberal.

If you have a problem with American liberalism, you are no centrist.

The Right has moved further to the center. That's what Beck is on about,
and a lot of real Conservatives are having real heartburn with the
Republican party is that they are moving to the left!

WHAT?!?!?!?! Obama is not a Liberal, and is ruling from the center?!?!?!?!

You MUST be an Uber-Liberal Progressive if you think Obama is a Centrist!

Whew!

I have a problem with Progressivism, which is where Pelosi, Reid and Obama
are trying to take us.

THe only reason Obama *appears* to be a centrist is because he realized
shortly after he got elected that America is not now (or may never be)
ready for him.
