Since Derek wanted to know...

Derek was curious about how I would fare on this test, since he filled it out. I dislike how they claim that I'd be best described as a "Democrat," because that would only be true if there were only two parties to choose from and they were looking for a random name, say a country where "liberal" means "left" instead of "centrist pro-big business." I'd more describe my politics as "Christian Social Democrat." I think it's the term "economic liberal" that gets under my skin.


You are a

Social Liberal
(60% permissive)

and an...

Economic Liberal
(18% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Democrat

I'm 61% social liberal!! They said I'm best a socialist. It's true. However, the questions that were testing if you were right wing were pretty outrageous--like saying that the life of one American is worth several lives of foreigners. I mean, are there seriously people who believe that sort of thing?

Anarchist totalitarian! There must be something wrong with the test.

I already told Maryanne and Ky, but it said I was totalitarian. I was right between Darth Vader and the Pope. At first I was mad, but then I thought about it and if I could have the entire world thinking I was infallible, wouldn't I? And if I could wear a black cape without looking stupid, wouldn't I?
I think we all know the answers.
