I think you missed the point.  My definition was meant to be a
mildly humorous definition, but Nr. 2 from Webster serves just as well. 
The point is that our current elected and appointed officials happen to
be of a different political persuasion than yours, and you (and
certainly not you alone) choose to label that difference "extremist,"
which labelling demonstrates definition Nr. 2 in a most excellent
manner.

I personally find Mr. Bush to be pretty middle of the road for a
Republican, but that probably labels me as an extremist too.
