Okay, my brother put me up to this since he can't post again until Saturday.

The Kool-Aid Drinkers on each end of the spectrum are those people who will back their party no matter what, whether they are going against your own beliefs or not.  In other words, when Bill Clinton is shooting his load into Monica's mouth, you are on the sideline saying, "Hell, that isn't sex, and there isn't anything wrong with that!"  lol

Most people in the United States fall somewhere in the middle, but my brother and I have noticed a large percentage of people on this forum who seem to lean more to the liberal side of issues.  So we just want to see where this forum really stacks up in its political beliefs.

Hmm. well. It varies from issue to issue. You can't really just be a liberal, or just a conservative, no matter what people tell you. Basically, when you have a liberal stance on an issue, you want change. When you have a conservative stance on an issue, you want things to stay the same. I'm liberal about most things I think, except on gun control.

Yeah, labeling yourself is dumb.

How many times do I have to say it folks? Labeling yourself only promotes the "my team vs your team" mentality that is a poison to democracy.

     Missing poll option: Civil Libertarian with Liberal and Anarchistic leanings.

     But the real issue is that Ghost is breaking his promise. Very interesting indeed.

I said it's poison to democracy. Competition like this is very healthy for capitalism.

Capitalism != Democracy

In that case I would agree with you. Like water and oil.

I picked Conservative Republican.  In case any of you didn't know.  I am definitely not a Republican "Kool-Aid Drinker" though.  Republicans do things wrong too, and when they do, I don't just go along with the party line.
