I was messing around with all 3 words :3

[Nibler]

No big surprise for me.

[Bear]

I thought I'd be more right wing like Gordon Brown *shrugs*

[Phoenix]

Bear, did you get exactly the same as me?

[midgetshrimp]

I'm above Ith and below Gandhi.

I seem to have moved even deeper into the lower left quadrant than the last time I took this. Must be that I've gotten more atheist (note: not antitheist), and my religion and morality answers have gone from "agree/disagree" to "strongly agree/disagree".

My biggest complaint is that the questions are worded such that you can easily answer them wrong due to the liberal peppering of "no" and "not". I had to read several twice to be sure I was answering accurately. I also dislike "authoritarian/libertarian", as "moralist/tolerant" is a much better way to label the social axis.

As for additional dimensions, I think a third or fourth dimension would end up being nation-specific. Economy and morality seem to be the two things used to define people and parties politically in almost every country. Two dimensions does the job of challenging the boneheaded, one-dimensional, left-right model quite nicely. Besides, no amount of axes would help to define me: I'm a Bull Moose Progressive (born a hundred years too late, of course) first and foremost, before my stances on any constellation of issues.

As to there not being any conservatives here: I actually (would if I was legal) vote Conservative and I support the Conservative party. But I think that's just because I live in Canada. Our Conservative party is honest and does a good job of running the country

Then it's the opposite of ours.

Not to mention the Republicans, and the Menemist wing of Partido Justicialista here in Argentina.

*Looks up CPC's stances and policies* Uh... I'll just have to take your word that they do a good job.

[cyanide_sweet]

Let me clarify... they have yet to steal our money *coughliberalparty* or start any wars I suppose my idea of good politics is who will do the least damage...

[JaS]
