Hmm I'm socially liberal, support socialized medicine and education, vote for the NDP on a regular basis (Canada's socialist party), opposed the (so-called) War on Drugs (up to and including supporting legalization of hard drugs), think peacekeeping is a good idea, support strong environmental regulation, am seriously in favour of (relatively) free immigration et al. On the other hand, I think the 2nd Ammendment guarantees the First (And wish we had that guarantee here in Canada), am something of a hawk on National Defence and a skeptic on some Global Warming issues (The human contribution to it and the actual results of it, not whether or not it's occuring), but the latter is mostly due to historical data (It was notably warmer on earth 1000 years ago). Oh, and with a couple exceptions (notably healthcare and education), I generally think that government solutions cause more problems than they solve, but that's more a case of inherent bureaucratic empire building tahn anything else. In other words, I'm a Tory/NDP swing voter, depending on the issues at hand. By US standards that would make me a moderate democrat, who might swing republican depending on the issues. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
