Tête-à-Tête-Tête

Jeeze, what kind of person do you have to be to match up with Fred Thompson?!? (I don’t think I want to know!)

I assume you won’t be supporting Tennessee’s hometown boy.

I guess I am just a bit more moderate and/or reserved in my choices -

Obviously, you folks are a bunch of commies.

Your results make me feel better Ricky. I was beginning to think that the test was set up to make only Democrats come out on top.

And you have no idea how sobering that is to me. If the 30 year old Buck could see the 50 year old Buck he would not believe his eyes.

Okay, I think I broke the quiz. I did not weigh any of the questions with how much I care about an issue.

The questions are horribly narrow, but then again they must be in order to keep things concise (the dreaded word ‘nuance’ comes to mind). The choices for illegal immigrants were simply a path to citizenship or shipping them back home. I know of no human being who has stated that we should get the gestapo out & arrest every one & then immediately ship them back to their homeland (aside from it being impossible), so it meant most people would choose the former, even though there are a whole heckuva lot of them (people w/warrants, criminals, drug traffickers, “former residents of certain ME countries who fit the, ahem, profile and are under FBI watch) that I’d have no trouble sending back.

Remember the DC sniper? Illegal immigrant who we had in custody on numerous occasions & lazily let go. He’s a lot different than the person working in the vineyards in California who has been here for a decade & who is a hardworking person trying to make better for their families. You cannot divine an answer in between those two scenarios in that test, as they’re treated the same.

At 18 I was a liberal. At 22 I was a Democrat who put an “Andrew Young for Governor” sign on his car & drove it by a KKK rally (yep, smart%$$ even back then). By the time I was 30 I was to the right of B-1 Bob Dornan. In my case, looking at the withholding was the cold shower…..

I think that will still piss me off no matter how old or soft hearted I get.

Only jadarm could rank Edwards lower than McCain, and Dodd under Tancredo while having Richardson, Obama & Clinton as the top 3. Or have Tancredo and McCain in the same top six.

Hey man, thanks! I appreciate that.

btw, where was Kucinich on your list?…oh yeah, …right….

Second!

I couldn’t resist playing Devil’s Advocate. . .

Or should I say Devil’s Candidate?

No idea if the formatting came through, but Ron Paul and Fred Thompson were tied for #1.

I can see that…

Jay, the “code box” at the bottom where you can copy/paste the html - … it works in the comments too, apparently… so that’s how the formatting works better.
