Quote from BSAM:
A better question is:
Why are you a democrat or a republican?
Im a conservative, and i think the republicans are just about as bad, however at the present time republicans are trying to cut spending without jacking up my taxes, and democrats arent. So im definately cheering for them at this point.
Actually on most tests, i test libertarian,(social liberal, fiscal conservative) but the thing is i really dont put any weight into most social issues, besides military and gun rights, and with the military i want to become an isolationist country, and get out of everyones affairs, other than that when talking about the government, really all i care about is fiscal issues. So i just say conservative.
If and when the next republican president comes in, if he should happen to be as bad as bush, or Obama, i will make fun of him just as bad as i do Obama right now.
For the most part i see a clear distinction between liberals, and democrats, and conservatives, and republicans, when im talking politics.
Republicans are probably closer to democrats, then true liberals are to democrats, or true conservatives are to republicans. Atleast the politicians are anyways.
