Default Are you Conservative or Liberal?

I would assume that there are many more conservatives on this forum than liberals from reading the postings, but I thought it would be interesting to find out.

Would you classify yourself as a conservative, liberal or independent?

I had to vote independent; my leanings depend on the issue at hand.

You left a couple off: http://www.theadvocates.org/quizp/index.html

Libertarian, The far left and right just attack different specific rights. Government has grown under both parties, hence they are both enemies of the citizen.

Many people are actually centrists, which is why we have "progressive" Republicans and "conserviative" Democrats.

I consider myself a Free Thinking Liberal with a slight Conservative edge.

That's right about where I scored on the test...

Problem is the false labling of "statists" as liberals that is so commonplace, not to mention the false association of "small government" with conservatives.

"independent" is the definition of a Libertarian, quite the opposite of the Statist.

I figured we'd generally capture the centrists with Independents. We can add more granularity if you'd like.

Need to add "fence sitter","not interested", "depends on how the answer will help me" and "huh" to make sure we capture all of the "granularity"

I'm just glad I'm not a member of the latest party, the "pee" party.

Piss on my backside and tell me it's raining...

I am "left" on certain issues, "right" on others. I think these labels are of no use to any thinking person.

I tend to be a "Constitutionalist". I believe that as a Christian I should help my fellow man but I also believe that the Government has no right to force me to. I also believe that I have a right and obligation to protect myself and others if the situation should arise. That being said...There are 3 types of people in this world...Sheep-who walk around not knowing or wanting to know about the dangers in the world (or just ignoring them); Wolves-who are preditors and believe that if a sheep gets eaten it's the sheeps fault and it deserved it; and lastly there are Sheep Dogs- who look like sheep and love the sheep but are willing to bare their fangs and kill a wolf (or die for the sheep)to protect the them. I'm a sheep dog. Most of my liberal friends have told me how they believe in gun control and that they could never take another mans life. My answer to that was "put your wives/husbands and daughters or sons in a situation where they are going to be raped or murdered and you'll change your mind." At that point all of them agreed with me. To Summize:
Christian
American
Heteosexual
Pro-Life
Right-Wing
Gun Carrying
Conservative....
Any Questions?
