Well MrTuffPaws, if we associate ourselves based on this test, looks to me as if the Realist Political Affiliation party is going to kick ass. Even if the liberals form a colition government with the NeoCons and Isolationists, They are still losing badly so far in this thread. 😉

Liberal.

It freaks me out that people could have actually chosen some of the horrific answers I rejected.

Well, it told me I’m a realist, but I’ll take that with a grain of salt. After all, I’m not really an American, and I don’t think these kind of tests - or any political definition, actually - are applicable to people from diferent countries. Every nation has its own political map, its own hot-button issues, and its own points of view. There are no “global” political affiliations.

Or maybe not. Didn’t someone ask for a GD?

Realist.

Normally, I think these internet quizzes are stupid, but this one was actually pretty interesting.

I suppose we need a debate to stay in this forum…

HA! Fie on you, foolish liberals, Isolationists and Neo-cons!! Can you not see that Realism is the only option for the United States in today’s complex and dangerous world!!? 🙂

About as useful as a Reader’s Digest “Has the spark gone out of your marriage?” poll, but interesting reading nonetheless. Oh, what the hell … much of the POV’s they describe as either Liberal or Realist seemed pretty reasonable, the Isolationist ones are unrealistic and have been since WW2, and the Neocon ones are micropenile-compensatory fantasies.

The results page said, “Pinko. The jackbooted thugs are on their way. We strongly suggest that when they arrive you do not resist.” 😉

It says I’m a liberal, but I think I’m a liberal/realist hybrid.
