Uh yeah but they ARE fringe elements and radical extremists.
Now click your heels together and repeat after me...."there's no place like home, there's no place like home"
Abusive ad hominem (also called personal abuse or personal attacks) usually involves insulting or belittling one's opponents in order to attack their claims or invalidate their arguments, but can also involve pointing out true character flaws or actions that are irrelevant to the opponent's argument.
This is logically fallacious because it relates to the opponent's personal character, which has nothing to do with the logical merit of the opponent's argument

Yeah, and bringing up Palin and the Earth Age question was just coincidence?
Yeah, ok then. Sure sure.
You keep throwing up those points. It stinks and I really don't know where the janitor is to clean them up.

Point being it tells a great deal about the "low information voter" who the right often appeals to in their advertising. This last campaign....there was not time to verify the information and sort out the lies before people voted and that is what they were depending on. I never saw anything like it. I figured many people WOULD BE TAKEN IN, the ads were that persuasive. PEOPLE DIDN'T FALL FOR IT.

Population grew by approx 180,000 / month.
Jobs grew by 163,000 / month (base average 2012).
Yet, government lists unemployment numbers as going down.

Those 180,000 new Americans are babies - not in the active work force. Population growth from 18 to 22 years ago are the more accurate measure of folks entering the workforce.
Then you need to calculate the number of folks leaving the workforce...Deaths and retiring.
10,000 Boomers to Retire Each Day for 19 Years.......(300,000 per month)
www.newsmax.com...
Retiring folks alone are nearly twice the population growth...even if you asume that babies can start work immediately...and not counting how many people die each month in America.
Just to sum it up..cuz it is a common play on "math" by GOP...Population does NOT equal Available work force.edit on 21-11-2012 by Indigo5 because: (no reason given)

Many more where that came from.
But, it is safe to say you will just dismiss any, as it paints lord 0bama in a bad light and actually shows just how bad it is within the 0bama economy.
