	Far right - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Far right, extreme right, ultra-right, or radical right are terms used to discuss the qualitative or relative position a group or person occupies within a political spectrum.
		The far right has often been associated in various degrees with conservatism, reactionism, monarchism, nationalism, jingoistic chauvinism, populism, economic protectionism, anti-immigration or racist and xenophobic policies, but the usage varies greatly.
		The term "far right" is sometimes rejected by right-wing political parties that consider themselves "mainstream".

	TAP: Vol 14, Iss. 2. Who's Right Now?. Steven Hill. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		While the parties and leaders of the European far right have long supported health care for their countrymen, the leaders of the American right -- mainstream as well as far -- have consistently opposed universal coverage.
		The partial renaissance of the European right is also a function of the swing of the political pendulum from right to left and back again.
		Unfortunately, the far right has often been the only sector addressing -- prejudicially and demagogically -- the hard questions concerning not only immigration and crime but also the generous European welfare state, and how it is being affected by globalization.

	Right-wing politics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In politics, right-wing, the political right, and the right are terms used in the spectrum of Left-Right Politics, and much like the opposite number of Left Wing, it has a broad variety of definitions and terms- the same name can, in politics, sometimes mean different things.
		At the other extreme within what is usually considered right of centre, the centre-right Gaullists in post-World War II France advocated considerable social spending on education and infrastructure development, as well as extensive economic regulation and even a limited amount of the wealth redistribution measures more characteristic of social democracy.
		A more obscure strand of right wing thought, often associated with the original right wing from the times of monarchy, supports the preservation of wealth and power in the hands that have traditionally held them, social stability, and national solidarity and ambition.

	Dorn, "Far Right of the Mainstream..."
		As early as two terms later, he was at least maintaining that, by far, it had caused him the greatest difficulties of any of the Court's cases that he had yet encountered.
		Far larger percentages of whites, on the other hand, were murdered by "cold‑ blooded" strangers committing armed robberies and other violent accompanying felonies‑‑precisely the types of offenders against whom the post‑Gregg death penalty statutes should be, and were, targeted.
		And it encompassed far more than what states had placed upon the faces of their statutes; it also was applicable to the actual workings of their capital systems.

	Who's Right Now? Europe's far-right resurgence fizzles out.
		By any measures, the far right in Europe has not been nearly as successful as the far right in the United States.
		While the parties and leaders of the European far right have long supported health care for their countrymen, the leaders of the American right-mainstream as well as far-have consistently opposed universal coverage.
		Unfortunately, the far right has often been the only sector addressing-prejudicially and demagogically-the hard questions concerning not only immigration and crime but also the generous European welfare state, and how it is being affected by globalization.

	The Far Right in Europe----->
		While the success of the extreme right has been marginal in the context of mainstream politics, it is endemic in almost all advanced societies in the world
		Extreme right parties have support throughout Europe, especially so since the dawn of the new millennium, with the possible exception of Ireland and Iceland.
		In France the mainstream right is incorporating the views and policies of the extreme right on the back of the success and continuous appeal of the National Front's Jean Marie La Pen.

	FAR RIGHT MISGOVERNS : FAR RIGHT MISGOVERNS
		Desperate to further their own agenda, the far right abuses power and does not play by the rules or follow the U.S. Constitution.
		When an extreme faction controls two or more branches of government and exercises that control ruthlessly -- as the far right does today -- we lose the all-important check and balance and the will of the people is ignored.
		In Congress the far right is creating a monopoly in the House by rearranging districts to their advantage.

		Fortuyn championed homosexual rights and was far from defending the family, but at the same time advocated extreme free-market policies, including the privatisation of health, education and other services.
		The new right parties, to a greater or lesser extent, all draw on a layer who are influenced by racist and xenophobic prejudice, especially among the petty bourgeoisie, the older generation, and in the rural areas.

	Far-right (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Since, by definition, most people are not far from the center, the terms "far-right" and "far-left" are used to say that someone is an extremist, not in tune with the majority.
		The imprecise use of the terms "left" and "right" in politics, and there being no absolute consensus as to what the "archetypes" of left and right are, has led to a number of disputes over the proper usage of "far-right" and "far-left" other than as general terms of derision.
		There are a number of different two-axis political models that were created for this reason, and they are discussed in detail in the article on the political spectrum.

	Pasco: Far right? This reader disagrees

	Right and Wrong
		The rise of the far right, he suggests, can therefore be attributed to the confluence of both global and nationally specific trends in the course of the 1990s.
		The end of the cold war unleashed a new wave of nationalism, emanating from the new nations that arose from the ashes of the Soviet empire and from parts of western Europe which feared for their economic prosperity now that their poor relations were no longer behind the iron curtain.
		And the Far Right's fears of being swamped by the poor Eastern neighbors are vastly exaggerated.

	Far right alienates moderate Christians - Opinion
		Everyone who disagrees with their agenda is accused of hating people of faith or stifling their right to exercise their faith.
		The only stifling they can cite, however, is court interference in their attempts to legislate Christian dogma on the masses or to employ the state in the proselytizing efforts.
		Groups like the FRC know that the court system is the last hurdle left to building their "city on a hill." Their vision for this society is clear, but those pesky judges keep letting the sinners through the gates.

		He begins by tracing the origin of the Right (termed the Old Right) back to the opposition leaders of Roosevelt's New Deal, proclaiming the 1950s as a "pivotal time for conservatism", and traces the growth of conservative networks and organizations through to the late 1970s.
		He adds that a New Right became a dominant force in American society due to the rise of a new Religious Right, mobilization of corporate conservatism and a revitalization of the Republican party.
		She includes well-detailed examinations of the religious broadcasting industry and its force as a political propaganda tool, the rise of the Christian right in the political arena of the 1980's and trends in the pro-family movement.

	Newsvine - Hard Truths for """Conservative""" Heads - The Far Right are Christ-Killers
		The "rights of the unborn" rhetoric of the right may have a moral core but it's yet again a smoke screen that is designed to create more misery, poverty, ignorance and hatred in this country rather than than love, decent parenting and good lives.
		The far right is dead set on eliminating freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the privacy of our homes and our personal endeavors - everything that our Constitution was created to protect and preserve.
		Many right wingers consider the government to be a business and your article clearly articulates that the government is a different entity unlike a business which is motivated by profit.

		I have to say that France's far right vote is not much of a surprise if one looks at their efforts to "protect" their culture over the years from not only the US and immigrant groups but the EU as well.
		The recent swing to the right does not mean that the acceptance of other cultures has diminished but rather that the French public are responding through the only possible channel to state that they want to see some changes made to the immigration system.
		The main danger of the far right is that they are much more extreme than their public utterances suggest.

		Right now the Republicans seem more direct by simply banning things they don't like such as gay marriage, while Democrats take a more sneaky (to me) approach of stealing money from people they disagree with and spending it on programs designed to alter peoples worldview (welfare, approved education, national healthcare, etc).

		In speeches as well as in some of her opinions, Brown has embraced the extreme states' rights and anti-federal-government positions of the Federalist Society, the organization of lawyers and judges working to push the law far to the right.

		The commission took its own wrong turn in deciding to recommend repeal rather than reform of the alternative minimum tax, which is beginning to sweep up middle-income taxpayers because of the failure to index it.
