Its so cute when you get angry and resort to name calling when your argument has no validity. You think automatically that being a democrat makes you liberal right? How about those segregationist democrats in the south in the 1960s,were they liberal also? You amaze me dude.

I'm calling an idiot because there is no place left to go here.
You have nothing more here than a naked assertion that we are a majority center right country and now you won't shut up even after being shown numerous times that you have no idea what you are talking about.
You are an imbecile.
LOL
Keep up the name calling and bring in your allies.I would highly doubt that many liberals would agree that deregulation and tax cuts for all and extending the patriot act are ideas of the progressive movement even tho democratic presidents engaged in these things but as I have said,if you want to believe they are progressive ideas,who am I to say no.
Let me ask you one more time.If we are a left of center country,why don't we have a national HC Plan and why don't we have public transportation and why are our tax rates some of the lowest of all western nations?
WHY DON"T WE HAVE GUN CONTROL?

Let me know when you find proof that we are a center right country.
Since you can't give me a logical answer to my questions,I will assume you are oblivious to what you are talking about which was my first inclination.
You obviously think being pro gun,and pro defense,pro deregulation,and tax cuts for all are left of center issues,so I guess we are left of center country, right?

Imbecile.
Polls about political identification become increasingly unreliable the more politically unsophisticated the respondent:Political scientists Ellis & Stimson: 34 percent "of self-identified conservatives rejects operationally conservative beliefs" in both "social welfare" and "moral issues" areas. In a working paper titled "Pathways to Ideology in American Politics," political scientist Christopher Ellis and James Stimson studied the positions self-identified liberals and conservatives take in areas dealing with "social welfare" and "moral issues." They defined "social welfare" to include "traditional 'New-Deal' spending and redistribution issues along with issues of race and civil rights." They defined "moral issues" to include "preferences for and against abortion, gays in the military, and the rights of gays to adopt children." The found that 34 percent of conservatives took the liberal position in both the social welfare and moral issues area, while only 4 percent of liberals did not hold liberal views in either area:
Only about one in five self-identified conservatives holds consistently conservative issue positions: right of center positions on both dimensions. Put another way, almost 80% of professed conservatives are not conservative on at least one of these dimensions. A larger group (30%) of conservatives is operationally conservative only on the narrow set of issues related to traditional morality, not the broader social welfare dimension. The "economic conservatives," conservative on social welfare issues alone, are not very numerous (15%). But the largest group (34%) of self-identified conservatives rejects operationally conservative beliefs on both the social welfare and the moral issue domains. This stands in contrast to the less than 4% of self-identified liberals who hold no liberal issue views. [emphasis in original] [Ellis & Stimson working paper]
