   In the USA I was always branded an Extreme Leftist. I came to think it was true. But I've found over 12 years in Europe that I'm not extreme at all, but rather moderate, in fact. It's the USA that was Hard Right. It's all relative. My friends here are mostly farther Left than me. For example, in referring to East Germany as Occupied Germany, or refusing gay marriage as a sellout. It's nice to pass such graffiti and smile at the idealism and not feel indicted, much less responsible.
