Smack dab in the middle, 20 points like my buddy Colin.

Indeed.

I got a 20, even with Colin Powell.

i scored a 19 putting me one behind colin powell...is that a bad thing?

I tried to pass off as as conservative as I possibly could, outcome: 9/100.

Spoiler warning:

What amused me most though, was the following segment from the explanation of the scoring method used:

Quote:

3. Any of the following gets 1 point (for a maximum of 3 points):
Doctors
Business Executives
Team Owners

These answers score 0 points:
Trial Lawyers
Union Leaders
Professional Athletes

Liberals favor trial lawyers over doctors, and workers over executives because they tend to
distrust businessmen and favor their workers and advocates.

Professional athletes!? Sure, a professional athlete making millions a year for basically the privilege of having turned his hobby into his profesion is the likeliest of all types of employees to rouse my protective liberal instincts against him cruelly being exploited by his greedy and unscrupulous employers!

Otherwise, a fun quiz, if far more entertaining than instructive. [img]smile.gif[/img]

RdRyR, it's not out of 100, it's out of 40.

I scored 18, and I consider myself a conservative, oops! Anywhoo, Thankfully I'm closer to Colin than any Clinton!

Who do I trust more, the executive or the legislative branch? Jeez, why not ask who I trust with my retirement more, Andrew Fastow or Ken Lay...

Timber Loftis · 05-01-2003, 04:07 PM

Well, Thorfinn, I found myself vexing over that one as well. I wish they had the judicial branch on the list. Oddly, I chose to trust doctors more than trial lawyers - though I think only the bad eggs in each group is UNtrustworthy. But, I trust the hipocratic oath more than lawyers' ethical rules - though both are pretty serious (if I understand the hipocratic oath, that is).

Wellard, I demand you come here and help me clean this spittle off of my computer screen. [img]graemlins/1drinkspit.gif[/img]

Oh, I'm a 22, between Colin Powell and Bush41. I'll round down, if'n you don't mind.

Arh Wellard i didnt wanna be a Monika Lewinsky as well!
Stupid 13's...

Thorfinn · 05-01-2003, 06:19 PM

I had to mark a whole bunch of things I didn't like at all. I don't believe either of the solutions proposed will make a hill of beans difference in campaign fairness. I have no idea why our government treats married people differently than single people, let alone why they should disallow some people from being married if they so choose. I think you could best reduce violent crime by letting anyone, at any time, walk into a gas station and buy a firearm without producing a scrap of ID.

And I left quite a few blank.

I got a 32.
