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

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!

Brwn_eyes0511 10-13-2005 03:37 PM

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".

OK, here are my results to the second one. Now why didn't they ask me of I thought it would be OK for someone to pray in school, instead nof asking if I am for School prayer. Is it mandated prayer? Then, I am not for it!

Too lazy to copy/paste the codes, I will say that I am Liberal and a Democrat, according to both tests. But as a European, I am not sure what the hell difference it makes. :p

Gotta say, I think it's a pretty horrible quiz. I understand the need to break things down into "A or B" scenarios for surveys like this, but some of them were just awful:

Quote:

2. Immigration policies

Should be less strict. Immigrants enhance this country.
Should be more strict. Too many people enter illegally.
Neither of those choices really reflects the primary issue.

This one is just laughable:

Quote:

19. The problem with the US justice system is:

Too many plea bargains and loose interpretations of law
Not enough rehabilitation and prisoner's rights
Also, I'm not really sure how thinking that the Iraq war is justified or not signals that you're a liberal or conservative.

Anyway. I have lots of problems with most of the questions, but here are my results:

Your Political Profile
Overall: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal
Social Issues: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal
Personal Responsibility: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal
Fiscal Issues: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal
Ethics: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal
Defense and Crime: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal

They managed to determine all of that from just 20 questions, huh? Actually, most of those seem somewhat accurate for me, except the personal responsibility one. I expected that to be either 50/50 or favor the conservative side. But again, I think a lot of the questions were poorly worded, and I wasn't able to make the choices I wanted to.

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...
