You don't mean that the Bush family supported Hitler & now the US is heading down the slope towards a fascist dictatorship do you? I wonder if there will be any elections in November or whether the govt will manufacture another Reichtag fire like they did on 9/11. Loose change anyone?

Yes yes, something like that. I was also referring to Bush's love of invading other countries for his own twisted sense of glory. I've done it now, let the rage begin!

Dude, I'm a dudette & what are you referring to as "all that"? The straight up facts of what has been going on for the past 8 years?

Huh???? I see, so the **** that minorities, homosexuals, etc. have to put up with from narrow-minded bigoted idiots is something that should be ignored? In case you haven't noticed, the civil rights movement started & has continued for quite some years now but because they weren't "asked", it should be eradicated. I'm sure these people appreciate & welcome not having equal rights, why try to make their lives better, right? I don't recall my cat telling me she'd appreciate it if I asked her if I could treat her w/respect & dignity but guess what? I do!!! And others do as well, there were even societies set up, such as the Humane Society & the ASPCA to champion the cause of animal rights.....god, what a bad idea that was hey, just because we didn't ask if we could do it.

Here's something everyone can enjoy... though of course the reality of it is that some will enjoy it a lot more than others simply because knowing the truth can be a bitter reality on occasion.
The Political Compass
Take the test, and then a lot of interesting information (besides just your own score) will be available. Things like how you compare to what various figures in history score when their public statements and actions are used to answer the test questions. Specifically, where do our current set of presidential candidates land????

Ouch!!! It is mind boggling!

Did you look to see how various presidential candidates, and the current occupant of the Whitehouse scored? Or to see how close you came to Gandhi, The Dalai Lama, Ralph Nader, and Nelson Mandela???? (The only major world figures who are in the same quadrant that you are! And, incidentally, that I am in too, though my raw scores are about 2x yours.)

There is another interesting fact about these scores. I'll send you a PM...
