so i guess at this particular juncture of my life i hate the typical conservatives more.. so would that make me a liberal? :)

Мне выражение "independent" напоминает - "немного беременная".
Hmmm... maybe "I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock-n-roll" is more suitable here?

Михаил, а если мы тебе дадим большой-прибольшой мешок какапли и индивидуальную прости-господи, чистенькую-проверенную ;-)...will you love us then? pleeeeeeeeeeze...:-(

:-D(K)(md)

For me to "like" the conservatives they need to stay away from my personal business..
Btw, since when is it just conservative/liberals? what happened to everyone else? Like libertarians?

For me to "like" the conservatives they need to stay away from my personal business..

so, low taxes, strong security, school vouchers, канапля, прости-господи своя!...all these ain't enough?

по-моему ты ломаешься? будешь сильно губу раскатывать, мы по-дешевле найдем...;-)

All schools of libertarianism support strong personal rights to lifeand liberty, though some disagree on the subject of private property.[8] The most commonly known formulation of libertarianism supports free market capitalism[8] by advocating a right to private property, including property in the means of production,[9] minimal government regulation of that property, minimal taxation, and rejection of the welfare state, all within the context of the rule of law
that would be me.. Ron Paul for the president!!

sorry to disappoint you...he is a liberitarian, but socially you would not call him that - he is socially what he say conservative (pro-life, traditional marriage, etc), but he is for state rights...

most of his views are fine...I share most of them...did you check out his foreign policy views? of isolationism...

and for some strange reasons, this past primary election he was supposed by the no-nazis...very strange..(tr)

Mike, good news ;-)

what's wrong with Independent? Can't we chose on platforms, on issues? Do you always vote along party lines? - this is crazy....
Don't we look at personal record of those we elect? I voted many times for Reps, and many times for Dems. Locally a number of Reps I know are trustworthy, they have a record of doing healthy things for the community, so why do I have for others- just because of their label? This would be just herd mentality.
