Both of your results before had that stipend BWS, I wondered about including it this time.
According to somewhere on the site, it says that the questions were worded, to give those on the extremes, a fairly "half-and-half" rate of answer (meaning pro, and con 1/2 the time). They are purposely loaded.
Why? Dunno. But, I don't really know if it's "biased" towards one end or the other. Another forum I've begun posting at, with a larger amount of "conservatives", has them placed in the far upper-right position..
*shrug* But again, the results aren't of life-or-death importance. And I *hope* no one is taking it too seriously.
The one thing force produces is resistance.

What EXACTLY do you mean? I could do it. Possibly, but I dont quite get what you're trying to say.

I do, and ive said it before more than once. The wording, in my opinion, seems to be rather biased and so I feel that the author had a bit of an agenda while making it. Its my opinion, but I feel that it is correct. I think that the questions could have been written much better, and I wonder why they werent.
And I've said it more than once - when opinions you hold are expressed clearly and directly you realise how stupid those opinions are. I mean "the freer the market the freer the people"....how stupid is that!?

Hell, if it needs mySQL, I'll host it.
It might even be easier with a MySQL/PHP/Flash combination-- or not. It all depends on how good one is with PHP, I guess.
I'd give it a try, but my FTP/site has been down for weeks, and I'm not sure if my Angelfire account would allow me to write to a text file.

Unfortunately, no.
Let's try this.

I think there's something screwy with this thread or something. The url points right, but when you just click on it, you're returned to this thread.
If you copy+paste the url, you can see it correctly.

Maybe it's just this page. If we get to the next page of this topic, it'll work again. Spamming time ;)
*sees that the other link didn't work on the previous page*
Aw...
Anywayz, where's mabzie or spookshow? We need some more conservative results here. The bottom left is getting a little crowded. There has yet to be anybody in the top left :(

I've found the results from a few regulars who still post;
Hmm... somehow you seemed to have overlooked the results of everyones favorite conservative. I was too lazy to look for my original score but I was about the same place as Tony Blair. This time I had:
Economic Left/Right: 6.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.49
I am indeed the token conservative.
Kiss my shiny Momon ass.

How could you know? All he does is talk about guns and attacks Kerry. That's not exactly a full political ideology or anything.

I keep trying to tell you people I am a moderate. I condemn Bush too you know. Besides what wrong with talking about guns all the time. Mmm... guns...
Anywho, I've stated in MANY cases where I stand on alot of issues. Try reading my full posts sometimes or heck, ask me where I stand on a particular issue.
Well, back to dragging that KIA Sophia.

Here's a quiz that rather accurately aligns you with the party that suits you most between the Democrats, Republicans, Greens, and Libertarians.

My Score: 7 Libertarian, 0 Others

I hate to break it to you but it's a two party system, your opinion doesn't matter.
