Default Just got this by email

I took it and it says I'm a Libertarian. Guess I'd better change my voter registration.

WORLDS SHORTEST POLITICAL TEST

So, you think you know where you stand, politically? Think again. The result from this short test may surprise you and give you some food for thought.

You'll be asked just 10 questions, and then it instantly tells you where you stand politically. It shows your position as a red dot on a "political map" so you'll see exactly where you score.

The most interesting thing about the Quiz is that it goes beyond Democrat, Republican, and Independent.

The Quiz has gotten a lot of praise. The Washington Post said it has "gained respect as a valid measure of a person's political leanings." The Fraser Institute said it's "a fast, fun, and accurate assessment of a person's overall political views." Suite University said it is the "most concise and accurate political quiz out there."

I took the test. This is what it said...

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 80%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 30%.

According to your answers, the political group that agrees with you most is...

LIBERALS usually embrace freedom of choice in personal matters, but tend to support significant government control of the
economy. They generally support a government-funded "safety net" to help the disadvantaged, and advocate strict regulation of business. Liberals tend to favor environmental regulations, defend civil liberties and free expression, support government action to promote equality, and tolerate diverse lifestyles.

Your Quiz Score: Libertarian

Thanks, Buzz, for the quiz. According to my answers, I'm a Centrist. I'm happy with that, as the description seems to fit my views.

Your PERSONAL issues Score is 50%.
Your ECONOMIC issues Score is 30%.

CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.

Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind, tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.

I just discovered I'm a Centrist also. Guess I'm happy with that since I tend to be middle of the road. Thanks for the test.

Personal issues score 100%
Economic issues score 100%

According to my answers the political group that agrees with me most is Libertarian (I knew that already).

LIBERTARIANS support maximum liberty in both personal and economic matters. They advocate a much smaller government; one that is limited to protecting individuals from coercion and violence.Libertarians tend to embrace individual responsibility, oppose government bureaucracy and taxes, promote private charity, tolerate diverse lifestyles, support the free market, and defend civil liberties.

Default Nevada Highway Patrol SWARMING

I was driving South on I-95/Cheyanne, all the way to the I-15 interchange, then south on I-15 for another 10 miles to the Blue Diamond Exit. I saw AT LEAST 12 NHP cars or K-9 units. Did anyone else see this, or know whats going on? I can't find any of the news outlets picking up on this.
