No, Focus on the Family is a plain-vanilla rightwing Christian group, not an "extremist" rightwing group. They're only "extreme" if anyone further left or right than the centerpoint of their party is "extreme"--i.e., if every plain-vanilla progressive is "extreme." And that Times article's description of Focus as a "fundamentalist" group is bullshit.
