So time to check everybody's political status. Yes, I know there's more then 5 parties and 3 out of those 5 really don't matter but I included them anyways. Including my own political party that I hope will take the political world by storm.

Needs moar Socialism.
Also, since only the Dems and Repubs matter I have to say this. Both parties want to fuck you, but the Democrats use lube.

Let's see......probably anti-stupid.
I'm for: Reproductive rights Drug-legalization Immigration Absolute free speech Total separation of church & state Gay marriage Stem cell research Prostitution-legalization The invasion of Afghanistan Intervention in nations which are experiencing ethnic cleansing/genocide.
Against: Abstinance-only policies & other "faith-based" initiatives The Iraq War So-called "free-market" capitalism The death penalty Political correctness/censorship Corporate welfare Affirmative action Excessive gun-control Hate crimes legislation
I don't know what the fuck I am....

I said Democrat, though if anti-Stupid was a real party they'd get my vote.

I hesitate to call myself a Democrat, as I am not particularly attached to the Democratic Party itself (it shills for big business more than I'd like, is not far enough left in some of its policies, and tends to wuss out.) However the Democrats are the only viable party currently in American politics that comes close to my views, so I vote for them most of the time.

Voted libertarian because it was the closest thing I could find to "please just leave me alone."

I'm not a big fan of the Dems, so I voted anti-stupid.
I tend to vote Democrat for the major seats, because they tend to be more in step with me, or less out of step, than the other guys. The problem is, they're still not so much good as they are the lesser evil. Locally, I vote for whoever, I agree most with. A lot of New England Republicans are more liberal than the Democrats in other states.
I'm an unabashed liberal, but then, the Dems aren't. That's why I like Bernie Sanders. He's actually a socialist....You know. Unlike Obama and the other fauxcialists the Republicans fear.

Officially, I'm an independent.
In reality, I tend to vote Republican since I disagree with the DNC on a number of issues and the third-parties often fail to impress.

Anarchist. I realize, however, that there is a cultural element required for anarchy to succeed that we are nowhere close to adopting, so I do what I can with what I have in an effort to move us toward the long-range goal of culturally stable anarchy.
So I selected "anti-stupid".

Including my own political party that I hope will take the political world by storm. Ironbite-HAVE AT IT AND DON'T BE AFRAID TO DISCUSS! And what would that political party happen to be? Very few things irritate me....but people starting a thread and demanding others discuss it while not starting the conversation themselves bugs the living shit out of me.

I'm Canadian, so I must be a commie pinko. ;D
Fiscal conservative, social liberal. I do find our current crop of liberals think they need to mother us (rather than leave us the fuck alone) which a notion I don't agree with.
