88. Their extremism gave us war, death, attack on civil liberties....
the list goes on. Do I care about being extreme in the defense of liberty and our rights? No. Do I care about being extreme in stopping the US war machine from killing and pillaging around the world and making us less safe by garnering more hatred toward us in the process? No.

Ironically, it was a Republican named Goldwater who said that extremism in the cause of liberty is no vice. For once, I would agree with a republican.
