I've always considered myself a pretty solid liberal, but I guess that's primarily on social issues; there are actually a few economic issues and such where I am somewhat conservative. (For example, I lean toward being able to opt out of Social Security.)

(I wouldn't vote for Nader, but that has more to do with his temperament and how I think other world leaders would view him.) Not surprisingly, the likes of Cheney and Keyes were way down the list, with Pat Buchanan last at 13%. (I was too scared to check and see where he and I came even close to agreeing on anything.)

Take the religion test to. It's a hoot. I still can't belive it came up with Mayanar (I so misspelled that) Buddhist for me. I don't think the world is an illusion defined by suffering or reincarnation, weird. I think the universe is this really cool place we get to explore and play in, if we would only stop ruining it for each other.

"Every day the world begins again, sunny skies or rain, come and follow me. Every sun rise shows me more and more, so much to explore, come and followe me.

"Every morning, every day, every evening, calling me away.

"While the sun goes round I'll still be found, following the sound, something's calling me. When the world goes drifting back to bed, memories in my head, wonders follow me.

"Every morning, every day, every evening, calling me away.

"Every morning, every day, every evening, calling me away."---Uncle Traveling Matt and Gober (sp?) Fraggle

(So what if some of my wisdome comes from the Fraggle's, I was raised on them)
