Funny, but a lot of people don't consider you a moderate.
No comment.

Here's your quote from the post just before it.
"I'm sorry to say these people are correct - all of us are horrible, vile people.
Now I'm going downtown to beat up some liberals. Anyone want to come with me?
A couple of posts later, I took a little shot at myself. Read on.
Here's another secret. While I'm not a journalist, I worked for many years in newsrooms, and I tend to react adversely to generalizations (like Hoosier and some others) whether they are pro-conservative or pro-liberal.
Besides, Bush is in the news more than anyone else, and as I've pointed out, I don't trust him, so it's just more likely to find (my) negative quotes about him.
As for the Republican Party, I grew up in a Fundamentalist Christian Republican family -- I've never been a part of the Democratic Party. My politics are centered on people -- although I admit that the GOP has leaned a little too far to the right for me recently. And, I'm certainly not fundamentalist -- I worry about that groups widening influence on government.
By the way, I didn't say you branded me -- it was a generic comment. Actually, I was responding to a comment by Phasad.
