What if we were to use the descriptive "Right Wing Conservative" to describe the National Review or The Washington Times? Most people would say that's pretty accurate as well as informative. Of course, I can understand why someone of the Leftist persuasion would say being called a leftist is tantamount to being called a dirty word, but it's not name-calling.
