Ambition is the last refuge of failure.

Just because I am bored, and it provided a moment of entertainment, I took some random "quiz" about my "political persuasion."

My result?

I am a "Don't tread on me" Libertarian.  I was also provided the following description:

You distrust the government, are fiercely independent, and don't belong in either party.
Religion and politics should never mix, in your opinion... and you feel oppressed by both.
You don't want the government to cramp your self made style. Or anyone else's for that matter.
You're proud to say that you're pro-choice on absolutely everything!

Beyond the obvious shallow assertions made (pro-choice everything? not quite), the description is correct; I don't belong in either party, and I do distrust the government in general. 

Just a simple thing that made me smile.

I'm almost the same!   

 

You Are a Capitalist Republican



Money makes your world go round - and it's no surprise that you always vote your wallet.
You're financially successful (or plan to be), and your agenda is low tax and pro business.
You don't get fired up about abortion... but mention capital gains tax, and you go crazy.
You want government to be as small as possible - and to stay out of the way of business.

Huh...I took it twice, because there were two questions I could go another way on. So, the first time I came out as a liberal republican. (wtf?) The second, the same as you Jade. No joke.

Weird man...

 

Be well, ~Alderic.

Being in Oz I don't do US politics... but here I'm 'pro-let's euthanase government'

As in, let's put it out of our misery.

Question should be...if you're dumb enough to take any credence in some online quiz being able to determine your id....should you really be allowed out unsupervised?

Boredom is injurious to your health....

Find yourself someone who can read tealeaves instead.....at least that way you get to drink some tea....so it's not all 'bad'....

I'm not anyway!  Last time I forgot my way home. 

Fortunately, the cops tracked down my addy through my fingerprints and ran me home.

Find yourself someone who can read tealeaves instead..

The quiz looks harmless, but all it's doing in putting you into a box and labeling you.  Is that who you really are and really want?

It told me I was a "New School Democrat" and that I was probably young and wealthy (WTH?)  -- I don't have any problem taking these online quizzes for entertainment purposes.  One of these days I'll figure out whether I'm "team Jacob" or "team Edward" but not in this year.

You Are a "Don't Tread On Me" Libertarian

Or so it says. I can't stand much of what's going on in this country...but it stems from the way people are and aren't brought up, more than simply "politics" or "economics". I figure "values" are at the root of the problems.

Not to get all deep and philosophical, but don't you think that politics and (especially) economics influences how a person is brought up and what their values are?

You've just been profiled by the CIA, NSA, FBI, IRS, Men in Black and Jafo.  Be afraid.....................

No worries here!  I didn't do the quiz (US politics so no point, really), but I do worry about the black van with tinted windows that sits outside my place daily full of G-men. 

When calling friends in the States I've occasionally dialed the wrong number, so I'm thinking CIA, FBI or Homeland Security for the time I got a direct line to the Oval Office and got GWB.

There again, it's probably Google cos of all the times I've dissed 'em.
