Moony...just wondering what you got the 25% fiscal conservative on?

I got the 25% on liberal ethics...because I answered this one "All authority should be question by its nature" with a "yes".

Hmm, I wonder if the person who made this questionaire was a liberal, or a conservative......hmmm.

I started to answer these questions and then got peeved halfway through. It is obvious which answers are supposed to indicate whether one is a liberal or a conservative, but I disagree with whether or not those are fair options.
For instance, there is no indication that politicians who call themselves "conservative" are working to "reduce the deficit and national debt", and there is no reason why working towards those goals will have to be at odds with aiding indigent families.

These are just tired old labels, and they don't fit anymore. At all!

This one is indeed a much better survery, many more questions, and more than two options on each question. Some questionable questions, though... but some really great and subtle ones, too. My favorite, though:

Quote:
24. It should be legal for two consenting adults to challenge each other to a duel and fight a Death Match.
Hell. Yes. We definitely need more of this in American society.

I hope to god nobody here is deluded enough to agree with this, though:

Quote:
33. Being poor and black is an advantage in getting into college.
Anyway, my results:

You are a

Social Liberal
(81% permissive)
and an...
Economic Liberal
(25% permissive)
You are best described as a:
Strong Democrat

You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

I'm right on Bono's mouth...
