Theirs are only worse because you see truth in their position despite how extreme it is. It is the side of the issue for "your" team.
Sorry but I don't play for a team.

I am not trying to single you out, but you hear the exact same things from the supposed moderates on both sides. That is how polarized the politics have become.
Yup polarized is correct. However unless you have been in a cave, for the last decade the 'right' has been nutty and out performs the crazy on any side by many magnitude.

Show me how Rush Limbaugh, Chris Matthews, Keith Olberman, Sean Hannity or Rachael Maddow are any different other than their choice of media outlet.
Yup. Both sides have their 'talking heads.' But do you see Matthews, Olberman, Maddow writing conspiracy books, running fear mongering campaigns, organizing protests.....?

The obvious answer is obvious.

The right owns Talk Radio and the left TV and movies, it is just how it is. Although i would give a slight edge to the left with Michael Moore and Cindy Sheehan.
LOL, ok.

The truth is, nobody does crazy, misinformed and out of touch like the conservative right of the USA.
