hmmm, I always thought myself an Independent, I guess I am! lol
Apparently I'm between 75% and 100% conservative on damn near everything. ( shrug )
Is this bad?

Fallen: No problems on that, it's just pretty skewed one way or the other, when I looked at either answer I cringed and picked the one that fit closest to what I thought was right,

tax tax tax, welfare, and food stamps for all that dont need them, and double them for people that are to lazy to go get a job....
Property Taxes are determined by state and unless I'm mistaken, New York State has about 6 times the number of people in it than NC.
If you didn't catch that, most yuppies I know in most states are Republican. Oh btw, IF you didn't notice also, your neo-con president pushed through a tax relief bill and is merrily allowing energy prices to sky-rocket. Hope you enjoyed that little bit of cash because you're sending right to his oil-company cronies.

Im a Xbox 360 fanboy...and damn proud of it!!
GAM> Yeah some of the answers I had to pick the closest one too.
Let's see...considering you're judging someone who's at least 3-dimensional on a 1-dimensional axis...
These are the answers that cannot be answered in binary:
2) The problem, as I see it, is that we give too much to new immigrants.
4) Public education could be improved if we had parents that actually did their job of being their kids' primary teacher.
6) Affirmitive action needs to be revamped, not abolished.
8) Does this question have any bearing on anything?
10) Taxes should be abolished and the government should find it's own ways of making money--after all, no taxation without representation and how well do they represent us?
11) This one is comparing apples and oranges. Reducing the deficit/debt is not interrelated with helping the poor and homeless.
12) The fed should be more concerned with representing the people en masse and less on those that line their pockets.
16) no wiggle room on this abortion question--you can't answer a question with a huge grey area with a simple black and white answer.
And the honorable mention:
15) Anyone that didn't answer "True" to this one needs to be demoted on the evolutionary chart from "human" to "bovine".
but to see how my political profile would be projected from 3+dimensions into 1...

Thank the lord. The most liberal I came up as is 25%. Any more than that I would have probably killed myself.
Or you would have had to pass the neo-con membership requisite 2x4 from your rectum

I just find it funny that you have multiple axes of thinking and we're still trying to limit to one.
After all, you have "liberal" and "conservative", you have tried-and-tested and innovative, you have stability and revolution, and you have pro-country, pro-self, pro-state, pro-specie, and pro-religion--amongst many other trains of thought that form youtr "political" profile. Liberal and conservative can't take all of those into account--it's like trying to map the world within a single line.

It's even funnier when you get painted into a corner by party politicing that doesn't work.
Also, if you get information that is valid and researched, guess what Emor8t, it doesn't matter the source.
Most neo-cons are too busy sucking back on RNC funded
"research
" from
"think-tanks
" like CATO or Heiritage foundation. Note the heavy quotes, you're not getting research, nor are the foundations think tanks that are impartial as they bill themselves.
If you think you're not getting lied to left and right by any government, you're profoundly stupid. Ever notice there is no bad news regarding politics? Reminds me of Stalinist Russia's "Workers Paradise" where there were never any shortages of anything... whatever.

As long as research is done by humans GAM, it will always be biased. Define valid source? Can you say all CATO or Heritage research is undeniably wrong? There isn't an infalable research foundation person/ group anywhere, ever. LMR's tag line on his sig is "Fact's are meaningless, you can prove anything with facts" or something to that effect, and in some respect, that idiot is right.
I don't trust the government 100%, hell no. But turning into Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory isn't going to do a whole lot of good. If it really bothers you, go be a hermit somewhere. Because without government, we wouldn't have half the things we have today.
Scream Bush is the devil all you want, but he isn't anywhere close to Stalin, Hitler, or Musolinni. Do I get ticked at some stuff Bush does, hell yes.
I'd lie if I would say im pleased with him as a president, because every time his says something, 2 months later he goes and says, uhhhh we @!#$ up. Either, he lied to us in the first place, or he really did @!#$ up. Its more that just annoying. But at the same time, I have no patience for people like Cindy Sheehan or Micheal Moore, or anyone else that screams fouls everytime they fart.
Jeez, Clinton lied, but at least he stuck with his lies to the bitter end. "Define: is"

I honestly thought I was way more liberal, but as everyone mentioned, this test is a joke.

I agree 100%, it's hard to believe that people feel OK about having to pick between only two partys. Most people decide which topics are more important to them and pick the lesser of two evils, this should not be the case.

Actually, anyone who is extremely one or the other will get laughed at in a debate. They think in black and white, as if human emotion and thought is black and white. Simpistic solutions to complex problems get laughed at. It's a fact.

Carlin is right, in a world that's conpletely full of @!#$, people find it refreshing when people are straight up about being completely full of @!#$.
Even though i'm purposely overlooking the fact that we need to STOP being full of @!#$ to get anywhere, you have to admit, anyone that doesn't realize that they are completely full of @!#$ and tries to pass themselves off as not completely full of @!#$ is only bull@!#$ting themselves, and in many cases, people aren't buying it.
Probably why Kerry wasn't elected, if you think about it...Clinton was completely honest about being full of @!#$. Dole tried to pass himself off as "A plain and honest man" Bull@!#$. I think people thought that Bush was more up front about being completely full of @!#$ than Gore--politial tampering notwithstanding (and really, like that hasn't happend before). This time, i think people realized that Kerry was pulling a Dole and trying to pass himself off as not bull@!#$ting people, when people were buying Bush's bull@!#$ story--why he got reelected.
So, as you can see, the system is complete and utter bull@!#$.
As for myself, I've said it many times on this board in varied arguments, people take me far more seriously than I take myself.

Valid sources are ones that have imperical data as reference to their conclusions.
Yes, I can very easily point out the huge flaws in both the numbers, historical data and logic in a lot of what comes out the pipe from both of those places, I have a couple of times... There have been OT topics on gas prices/oil prices where CATO articles and Heiritage found. articles put Anwr @ X-billions of barrels (I seem to remember it had said 490 billion, I don't remember), when it's actually a lot less, and pointed out the USGS numbers... As well, there was a monumental @!#$-up with the numbers they were talking about with the US strat. oil resv. having 700 billion barrels of oil, when it's an order of magnitude less... so millions. Yes, I even sent them the correction, but I haven't heard anything back except that for some reason they've added me to a mailling list.
Facts are facts. You can't argue with them when it's actual information. It's the ideas that idiots derrive and espouse from those facts that are the enimitable problem.
And you're right on one thing... LMR is an idiot
I don't slag people normally, but I'll make an exception in his case.

True enough. (Besides... Conspiracy Theory sucked
)
My problem is, though you are right, a government that is interested in the people and wants to do whats best for them is one that will do the best for the people, the current US government is not at all interested in doing what is best for the people, rather they're more interested in subverting your interests for theirs and their corporate contributors.
I needn't do more than point @ what's happening in Louisiana and Mississippi, and then mention that the Government approved syphoning off 44 Billion dollars from the operations and renewal projects for the levys and pumps to finance the war in Iraq which has reaped no real benefits to the American people (ie, no greater personal safety, record high oil prices despite unprecedented stock and refining ability, loss of National Guard units for Iraq duties instead of logisitical and humanitarian aid in the hurricane area).

No, Bush isn't clever enough to be the devil.
And he's only had 5 years... the merry trio of dictators you quoted had at least 10 years+ before they really hit high-water on their power base.
