This should be interesting to know where some of the posters are on the political scale !!!

if they dare to take it

Butterfly:

Economic Left/Right: -6.88

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.95

Something between Ghandy and the Dailama

Another controversial topic

Bitterfly, I did your test, and (if memory serves) your numbers on the scale were more representative of Charles Manson (no moral center), and Joseph Stalin (communist). Just joking, but I know Ghandi, and you're no Ghandi.

Don't let your hand cramp, slapping yourself on the back.

FYI, my numbers:

Economic Left/Right: -0.50

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.67

So much for your grandiose theories about me being a righty. Just have no affection for senseless, bungling fools irrationaly trashing my country.

SoCal

Here's mine:

Economic Left/Right: -2.50

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.77

...Somewhere between Ghandy and the Dailama. What?--In the same boat as Butterfly?? The machine must be broken!!

Economic Left/Right: -3.75

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.15

Very interesting

Economic Left/Right: 4.50

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.51

Just call me Mahatma

Economic left/right -4.25

Social libertarian/authoritarian -1.18

I dont like these Questionaires where there is no middle ground neither agree or disagree, you are forced to choose an option which isn't your exact opinion.

I guess it forse the results into one of the quadrants.

A bit like referenda Broco. They pose the questions so as to get the outcome that they hope to get.

Yes most of the ones we get at work have at least 5 options with a middle ground.

Did you take it ? and if so are you keeping that air of mystery still.

Another Dalai Lama type guy. Libertarian Left. Maybe Thailand attracts a lot of us.

These numbers sound a little extreme. Maybe there is some medication to bring them closer to mainstream metrics. Something like Leftitor, Conforma, Bushian, etc.

Economic Left/Right: -5.25

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.85

I got interrupted part way through and am uninspired to revisit it. I suspect Genghis Kahn and I have a lot in common.

makes me wonder when he found time to do it

"What Kind Of Person Are You ?"

I am a person that is tired of listening to your crap!

I am a person that is tired of listening to your crap!

WOW what answers did you give to get that answer?

I didnt bother looking at it

Somewhere between Sekhmet and Yen-lo-Wang.

Then crawl back under your rock Mr Not So Gentleman

Are you British ? (yes I know you are)

How does it feel to be the Lackey of Mr Bush ?

Here's mine:

Economic Left/Right: -2.50

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.77

I think it is. You are correct. There is no way you could score so close to the center. You should be right below Sharon and Bush. I think you cheated on some of those questions

Please, tell us how you really feel, we want to know !!!!

And I am not Ghandi for sure, did you figure that out all by yourself ?

Hey Membrane & Co. do you think you fit in that definition of the NeoCons ? it would be interesting to know. Your comments would be appreciated if you do believe in that definition or what you feel is not part of that definition

I like the contradictions between "free markets" and the corporate welfare in the NeoCons agenda.

A Word about Neo-cons and Neo-libs

U.S.neo-conservatives, with their commitment to high military spending and the global assertion of national values, tend to be more authoritarian than hard right. By contrast, neo-liberals, opposed to such moral leadership and, more especially, the ensuing demands on the tax payer, belong to a further right but less authoritarian region. Paradoxically, the "free market", in neo-con parlance, also allows for the large-scale subsidy of the military-industrial complex, a considerable degree of corporate welfare, and protectionism when deemed in the national interest. These are viewed by neo-libs as impediments to the unfettered market forces that they champion.

If this is it...should I close it ?

Maybe you should call it, "The Butterfly Pit". Close it down!

OK....the topic is destined for the bin anyway...email me if you'd like it open later.
