I voted other... Libertarian. I didn't know what you meant by liberal. I thought maybe you meant Democrat by that, so I voted other.

politicalcompass.org is a grea site for this. I am a conservative with libertarian tendencies. Free trade, education, military, NASA, and the conservationist movement are what I support.

Hey! You divided up Liberals by adding Communist and Socialist! You should have added Fascist and Theocrat to balance it out.

Liberal, anyway.

That would be evil! I wouldn't dare vote myself as a 'liberal' when I'm really a Socialist. :)

What's wrong with Liberal?

And Democratic Party means nothing. You can be a moderate (like that idiot Zell Miller and Lieberman) or a liberal (like Howard Dean or Dennis Kucinich).

Zell Miller was a Conservative Democrat he was not a Moderate! He was a Democrat with Republican ideals!
I don't know about Lieberman.
So no, you can be a Democrat. I am a democrat.
And repubs have thrown the name of Liberal through the mud so much its hard to touch it.

EDIT: TO CLARIFY: I'm seeing that nearly everyone here calls democrats liberals; to me they are different extremes of the same view. So don't bother flaming. You have to admit true liberals are nothing like true democrats, after all.

Liberal is "We don't like the laws because they restrict us".
Conservative is "We like the laws because they restrict the liberals".

Both of these are stupid, because liberalists don't believe in what they stand for, and conservatives believe in what they think they should.

What...is a GREEN? Besides American money and British lawns...

Socialist is "People are everything, and everything is money. Have a cigar; it's made of money."
Communist is "I'm a lumberjack, and I'm OK."

Neither of these are stupid, because without outside forces (America) interfering, a commune can work. Outside of communes, however, everything is money.

Democrat is "Send us your opinion and we'll go with the majority, where the majority is stupid, as there are 10 stupid people to every 1 intelligent person".
Republican is "We're not allowed to call ourselves dictators, so...".

Both of these are stupid, because they make their decision before hearing the argument.

However, my vote goes to Other; Anarchy.

I'd rather make my own choices, thanks all the same for your public exposure laws.
