They don't represent the right but these people appear to be on a definite increase, both in number and visibility/noise, and that's worrying. With undeniably
mainstream political and media conduits like Sarah Palin and Fox News, I should think any decent, sane individual of either side of the political divide would be right to be concerned about the momentum and consequences of this
extremism (let's be honest - if they were Muslims, we'd have no hesitation in labeling them extremists for their views).
