In the beginning..............the page was blank. It's why bloggers blog. To put words on once empty pages.

Where to begin. This isn't me but from time to time, snapshots of what and usually why I think what I'm thinking...........
Socialism - All those people that want a smaller Government - EXCEPT when it affects them.
Here are a couple of completely meaningless 'tests' that are suppose to show someone's political leanings.
http://www.politicalcompass.org/
On the 'Compass' I come up Economic Left/Right: -5.12 and Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.79.
Somewhere between Nelson Mandela and The Dalai Lama.
One of the song's in my quadrant is 'Eve of Destruction'.

The other 'test' is Vote Match : http://www.ontheissues.org/Quiz/quiz2010.asp?quiz=Pres2012
Here I'd match up best (according to them) with Ralph Nader. Actually I wouldn't as I think he is usually a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic.
My second match up would be Hillary Clinton. And yeah I could go with that. If Bill Clinton could run for President - I'd vote for him in a second!

Barack Obama
If Romney gets the nod, I'll look for a 3rd party to vote for on principle. Unless Obama actually starts to ACTIVELY SUPPORT what he says. If Perry gets the nod, I'll vote Obama because we are headed for economic collaspe, with Perry he'd also take us into social collaspe. The financial collaspe we can come out of. A social collaspe? Nope. Especially the way he and his fringe see society.

Jon Huntsman
Actually a good man. But polling about 4% with even less money.

Ron Paul
It's already being attached to his name - Ron 'Let Him Die' Paul. In reality Paul actually said no he wouldn't let the guy die. But the rest of his answer was just rambeling.

Sarah Palin
This is turning into a lose/lose for The Quitter. She'd lose big time in a campaign and if Perry keeps the lead, why have her as a commentator about someone who's even more right then her?

Newt Gingrich
Oh but wait! He's a 'smart guy' and as soon as he turns on that money machine, he'll give Obama a run. ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!

Michele Bachmann
Anybody in the actual Tea Party should do everything they can to distance themselves from her. Actually Sane people should do everything they can to distance themselves from her.

Rick Perry
In the General Election, if it's him, he is going to look even worse then Little George.

Mitt Romney
Still can't give an intelligent answer on Romneycare. If you could, you could win in the General. But not in the Primaries. The South still thinks Mormonism is a cult.

Mike Huckabee
Shoulda run dude. Your involving religious views into public policy scares the hell out of me but your 'Ah shucks' attitude would have wowed the Republican base big time.

'Your Political Philosophy'
'The below is a way of thinking about your political philosophy by dividing your PoliticsMatch answers into "personal" and "economic" questions. It is only a theory - please take it with a grain of salt'!
'Personal Questions: Liberals and libertarians agree in choosing the less-government answers, while conservatives and populists agree in choosing the more-restrictions answers'.
'Economic Questions: Conservatives and libertarians agree in choosing the less-government answers, while liberals and populists agree in choosing the more-restrictions answers'.
'Your Score'
'You scored the following on the PoliticsMatch questions':
'Personal Score 79%'
'Economic Score 17%'
'Where You Fit In'
'Where your Personal score meets your Economic score on the grid below is your political philosophy. Based on the above score, you are a Hard-Core Liberal'.
(GRINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
