4. My Suggested Law...
"I would dictate that anyone of military service age in the time period defined as "Viet Nam era" should be prohibited from running for national public office. I'm sick of the whining about draft dodgers, deferrments, swift boats, national guard postings, etc."

23. Oh

Who was the general? From his emblem on I'm guessing its not Schwarzkopff at least

30. Apparently I'm a socialist, though I really wouldn't consider myself
Edited on Thu Jan-12-06 07:01 AM by mutley_r_us
a pure socialist. I think socialism should be mixed into capitalism (ie, social programs such as national health care) and capitalism should be moderately to heavily regulated depending on the needs of society.

Social Liberal
(78% permissive)

Economic Liberal

This is the first time I've been pegged as a socialist on one of these tests. They've put me everywhere between Libertarian and Socialist. What is a gal to believe? :shrug: :D

There were quite a few questions that two different people could agree on for completely different reasons.
