Actually they really should have named their movement the White Whine Party.

I'd put a right wing sticker on my car, but I'm too scared of the left whack jobs damaging my car. I don't think the left needs to worry about the right damaging personal property. I come to this conclusion by observing all the property damage they do anytime and anywhere they have a protest.

Glad you are worried but statistics show the opposite.

Where has the right damaged property in a protest? Compared to the environmentalist attacks and the WTO protests that routinely destroy property the right wing protests I've seen have been peaceful and without property damage. I thought you might be considering the KKK attacks during the CRM in the fifties and sixties, but those were largely Southern democrats. The left usually leave where they protest in shambles. They seem to have no respect for private property.

AFAIK the WTO and World Bank protesters were anarchists - neither left or right.

And being Anarchists would place them to the right of Libertarians.

From left to right;

Communist-Totalitarian Government,
Dem Socialist-Really big Government,
Democrat-Big government,
Centrist-Reasonable amount of government,
GOP-Small government,
Libertarian-Inadequate government,
Anarchist-No government.

See the progression?
