Technically, you should have said "fourthed", not fourthded.

And I agree, this bandwagon rocks.

Oh, lookie, we have definitions! Yay!

Problem is, Leftist Atheist is the best description of me, but I'm not much of a left winger.

Thanks for the explanations...think that means the bandwagon's over guys.
Closest for me is Leftist Atheist.

i cant decide between bleeding heart liberal and leftist atheist. im not young, but i did GO to college and tend to have sympathy for those in need. i might be a leftist atheist but im afraid that it code talk for closet communist.

Dixiecrat.... However, because of where I live, I'd like "Yankeecrat" better. :D

Basically a nearly straight down the middle moderate, leaning left a tad, leaning right on some issues. Schizophrenic I guess. :p

This thread needs a poll!

Anyway, I'm probably a Leftist Athiest, but I might conceivably be a Pseudo Libertarian if you catch me in the right mood!

Dammit, man, you should make a Quizilla quiz; a lot of these apply to me!
I guess I'm most likely to be called a Bleeding-Heart Liberal or a Starbucksian Liberal. I'm not really Preppie, though. Seriously, I'm not. I'm a mid-class girl stuck in the suburbs! I've never even been to Starbucks!

Also, I think instead of 'Leftist Athiest' you should have 'Godless Leftist' or something like that to keep with the convention of being mildly insulting. I mean, to me at least 'Leftist Athiest' has no negative connotations, and that's hardly fair since all the others are mildly offensive (well, except for Republican Jew, but I can't come up with an even remotely politically correct way to change that one into something offensive).

I'm sort of a weird case:

pretty centrist socially (i don't give a crap about what people do in their homes; against the death penalty and mildly against abortion, which sort of cancel each other out)

free-enterprise all the way in terms of economy/personal finance, which puts me in the Republican camp.

in terms of military/foreign relations, I am not in favor of the United States engaging in a popularity contest in lieu of doing what's right for the United States and the rest of the world. We need to try to be diplomatic, but sometimes words fail. Militarily, well, the #1 priority of the government should be to protect us. I strongly support US armed forces.

so overall, i'm a moderate republican: strongly republican on money, pretty centrist or barely right-of-center on social issues and more of a hawk than a dove (assuming we're serving an arguably good cause).

Well, I guess I am a combination of a Federalist and a Pseudo-libertarian (while I hold many libertarian ideals I won’t vote for the party because it will never win and the whole “protest vote” thing doesn’t appeal to me). I guess I also have some Jessusfreak underpinnings.

I don't belong to any stupid stereotype group. People who just adopt the exact political views of a group are just like cogs in a machine. A machine no-one wanted in the first-place, like an automatic turd generator.

Bush is not a neocon, he is conservative. A lot of people in his administration, however, are neocons, hence the reason so many policies coming from the White House are the way they are.

Oh, and I am a conservative.

Maybe a Leftist Atheist, although I'm more agnostic (saying you know for sure that there is or is not a god is like saying you know for sure who's going to win the Super Bowl in the year 2117). I guess when I graduate high school I will have completed my training and be able to advance to a full-blown Bleeding Heart Liberal.

Although you should add a category for people who say their communist, but aren't, and only say they are because they just think it's cool. I have quite a few friends like that... :rolleyes:

Non-Conformist Conformist?

I was thinking of putting liberal atheist, but I don't agree with them on all points. I'm socially libertarian, economically leftist (but still capitalist). Yeah. And stuff. For instance, most 'liberals' claim to be social libertarians, but still don't think people should have the right to own guns. That's just stupid.

Combination Dixiecrat and Pseudo-Libertarian. I don't support the Libertarians 100% on their platform, I still believe that Labour Unions can do good things when they aren't corrupted, I'm not enamoured of the idea of unlimited and unthinking "Free Trade", but at the same time, I don't trust the Government to know what's best for me and i'm highly suspicious of the motives of people who claim to want to help me from the goodness of their hearts.
I think if more states stuck to the wording of Roe v. Wade, we'd have a lot fewer useless debates about abortion.

I believe that the American Left is Appeasement-minded and cowardly in foreign affairs and deeply infected with an Anti-American bias that is suicidally stupid. Historically, Appeasement has never worked. a "Peace of Paper", as Chamberlain discovered after Munich, is a decent substitute for toilet-paper if you compare it to European brands, but not much good for limiting aggression.

At the same time, I dislike the provisions of the so-called "Patriot Act" as they grant (again) too much power in too few hands with no checks against abuse.
Law should never be made in a fit of fear.

Likewise, I mistrust the Green movement's motives, methods, and logic. fighting against newer developments doesn't clean up the environment, nor does Luddite actions against technology. I distrust the 'human-centric Global Warming' claims because I feel the scientific process has been politicized to embrace a luddite and antiproductive agenda. The presence of large flaws in most GW models including the famous "Mann Hockeystick" don't serve to increase my confidence that someone isn't playing games here.

At the same time, I don't think we should cut down all the forests, dump toxic waste on the ground, or dump pollutants pell-mell into the environment. The idea that you can build a bunker to house high-end radioactive waste is, in my opinion, remarkably stupid. Burying a problem does not solve it. Nor does filing lawsuits to prevent technology from improving.

'Conservation' does not mean pretending that because you've locked it up, you're preserving a god-damned thing. People tend to treat things they own and have worked for better than things they don't own, or were given. Ask any landlord what kind of condition most of his properties are in when the renters move on, then compare that to most houses-for-sale that aren't new construction.
