1. May I Add to the left list

Dolly Parton. Heart. Soul. Compassion. Empathy. Love.

And a wardrobe from here to the moon.

3. Yes Dolly!!!!

A wonderful beautiful person.

[BOSSHOG]

4. She's all dolled up on the cover of the current issue of Southern Living

Which is a wonderful magazine sans politics.

2. More like Rosanne Barrf.

I couldn't stand her when she was doing those
Rodney Dangerfield HBO specials back in the 80s.

5. No, the center-right has Morgan Freeman, Robert DeNiro, Eminem, Garth Brooks,

and Dolly Parton. The LEFT has, among others, Ani De Franco, Henry Rollins, Peter Garrett and Jello Biafra:

6. DeNiro is with the Democrats. Don't know about the others.

7. Democrats are a center-right party

with a small centrist minority (progressives) and a tiny center-left contingent (the DSA) who most of the rest of the party revile. I feel it important to point out the difference, as many here seem confused about where they fit on the political spectrum.

The artists I mentioned above wouldn't attend an inauguration, and if some misguided capitalist politician had the odd notion to invite them to perform, they wouldn't. If they vote at all, it isn't for a pro-capitalist party member. That's the difference between the left and the center-right in the U.S. The left has no party that successfully competes in elections, other than the occasional municipal (and less frequently, state legislative) election. They may occasionally block with Democrats as anti-fascists, probably holding their collective noses, but the left aren't Democrats.

8. Well I'm with the Democratic Party so that must make me right wing or something. I didn't know it.

Thanks for telling me.

11. I'm with you. I am not sure why calling us "center-right" with all the additional language is not actionable here.

12. What nonsense.

15. If there is a point to assigning labels to those of us who reject them

I’m sure I don’t know what that is.

But I don’t become center right just because some poster here says I am any more than I become far left just because Richard Viguerie says I am. If being unlike Nina Turner makes us center right, then someone is using a different set of labels from the one I use. The difference is that just because I may disagree, it doesn’t make my opinion absolute truth.

I’m just some southern nerd with an opinion, that’s all. That doesn’t give me the right to pin labels on other people.

10. They aren't the center right. The far left in this country are mainly useless performative types and anti semites

referring to Democrats as center right is an example of this. And anti semitism should be reviled .

[Polybius]

13. How liberal are you that you consider Robert DeNiro center-right?

He's to my left.

[JI7]

14. Far left but not liberal. There is a point where the left becomes more right wing and anti liberal
