I guess moderate:
- I'm very pro-life.
- pro gay marragie.
- anti gay adoption
- extremely for seperation of church and state. Almost anti-religion as a whole.
- I beleive that censorship is being taken completely too far.
- very pro the war on drugs.
I like icecream!
moderate conservative, social conservative, fiscally liberalish
Come live in California for a year. That'll fix you up right quick. :DQuote:

I hated gays - I remember telling my parents that if I had a kid who was gay I would disown him/her. I really hated affirmative action in any form.
Nowadays, most of my political views are motivated by/based on my chauvinist and misogamist views. I wouldn't go so far as to call myself a misogynist, though. But, essentially, I hate marriage in the "ceremonial" aspect. I think women have the upper hand when it comes to that arena and it's gotten unfair - money, custody, whatever. I don't care if gays get married, particularly, but I support the solution of civil unions with the same benefits so that if I ever decide to form my cohabited company (a.k.a: get married) I won't be a jerk for not having a wedding or a ring or any of that other ceremonial irresponsibility. Anyone who thinks marriage in this country is anything other than a government-sponsored company formed to make a product (kids) need look no further than their marriage certificate for the raised seal of the State Secretary (the same person who certifies companies).
I don't necessarily hate children, but I don't view them as a consequence and I don't think that two people with aspirations should be forced to raise a child when they're not ready and thus abortion (while I agree is a gruesome practice in the later stages) is necessary. The people who have been born and are living and have rational thought are more important than the cell, the formation with a beating heart, or the unborn child since the parents may have children later. To me, the consequence of stupidly having unprotected/promiscuous sex IS the abortion. I think adoption ought to be promoted more than later-term abortions.
I don't hate God, either. I don't care what religion people want to be (or not to be) and I don't think it should be announced in public or be something to be concerned with. I think people who say, "This country was founded on religion," or whatever are dumb: this country was founded on commerce, plain and simple. Boston Tea Party, bitches.
I don't think there ought to be limits on free speech. If there ought to be, then stop calling it "free speech." I don't think the government should be interfering unless there is physical harm - stop being an offended little pussy and deal with it.
I don't like banning things. It's the lazy way out. This includes guns. Call it an archaic reference or whatever, we have a right to own guns. Banning stuff is a knee-jerk reaction instead of a researched idea to help solve the problem.
While I dislike the idea of capitol punishment, we're a long way from not having to use it. Banning it would be dumb, see above. Keeping it as a last-ditch thing is more my style.
Affirmative action based on income rather than race is more fair, in my eyes. I would have loved to have gone to Georgia Tech, but I just couldn't gather the money. Hard when you're a white male. Perhaps I should have tried a bit harder? I dunno. It's hard to be objective about yourself. In business, I think the courts are fair enough these days to determine if someone was not hired or fired based on discrimination. Quotas are stupid.
I don't mind immigrants. I don't know where my lily-white ass would be without them.
I don't know enough about health care to make a comment any which way. Aside from the fact that I don't have health insurance, I don't know if I like what Canada's got.
Did I forget anything?
EDIT: Oh yeah, I hate whiny liberals and knee-jerk conservatives.
I'm moderately fascist.
You did write in this same thread that you enjoy killing babies, apparently you eat them.Quote:
