Fun With Politics

Hello boys, girls, and androgynous rock stars! today we'll be talking about politics. Yes that is one of the four taboo subjects we're "not supposed" to really be honest and talk about (the other three are religion, sex, and race of course). But today it's politics. Traditionally, political labels have been either "Conservative" or "Liberal" (or "Moderate" if you're a fence sitter), but over time those labels have shifted completely. What was once called a "Liberal" is now called a "Conservative" and vice versa. It can all be so confusing. Plus, what if you're social views are liberal and your fiscal views are conservative? Fortunately, our good friends over at the internet have a wonderful solution to help you see where you stand. Down at the Political Compass ( http://www.politicalcompass.org/test ), you can answer a few questions and they will show you how you're political thinking compares to Hitler! (and others). So come on down and give it a try! I scored a very Gandhi-like -3.75, -2.62. "Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth." woohoo!

Last night I went to dinner with some friends. I told them all about Jesus and how if he were Hispanic the world would be run by democrats who like fellatio. No wonder they didn't want to stay for coffee afterwards.
