Socialists? -3

Libertarians? +5
What does the X axis mean? Liberal and conservative are opposites of each other but they aren't the only options. Libertarians aren't exactly super conservative, so I don't see why they would be further to the right of conservatives. Socialists aren't exactly super liberals, so not sure why they are all the way to the left.

This poll is equivalent to asking an Indian's fan if he likes the Red Sox or Yankees.

My political mentor..A democrat kicked out of the party for being "too conservative" and opposed Reagan as not conservative enough...

Dude, I was trying to get a rough idea of the spectrum of political
views on here, and I got exactly what I wanted.

I actually put an option for people who felt like they didn't fit on
that scale, so I don't know why you're bitching so loud. It's a
stupid friggen mini-poll on a sport-betting web-site. geeez.

Hey ass-clown, it's a stupid poll on a sports-betting web site. Lighten
up. Wasn't meant to be a friggen scientific poll.

Why didnt you include a disclaimer?

Id like to withdraw my vote, since I prefer to only vote in scientific polls here.

Now Im really confused about this poll.

What vote slots in this poll properly measures the political lean of 2 of my favorite rx kook/conspiracy poli posters?

Total Recall (2007 kook of year) & saturn will blow up this year.

Loren78 (front-runner for 2008 kook award) and half the worlds political members are CFR members.

Wilheim, I think maybe Cheapseats (among the most senior rx veterans) would benefit from a refresher course regarding the spellcheck feature.

Additionally, for future reference, and in case Cheapseats gets baffled with another one of those fancy three syllable words he posts, and hasn't yet mastered the rx spellcheck feature, this link should suffice. spellcheck.net

Furthermore, Cheapseats, since you are such a seasoned veteran here, maybe Willy has some extra dough in the budget to offer you one-on-one tutoring from Romanowski (150 IQ & Mensa member).

Finally, Cheapseats, if you send a postage-paid, self-addressed, 9" X 12" box to the below address, Willy and therx will send you a complimentary thesaurus to further assist you with finding other large words you are becoming famous here for (spelling included).

C-seats, you've made it here much time, you are the rx gray beard of sorts, so there isn't any need to feel overshadowed here among the intellectuals or as you posted, academics' here.

Heck, for greater than three years, I've managed to muddle my way through here, with only an average IQ.

If tested today, I may score a whopping 105 after soaking in all the knowledge from this forum.

Besides, therx poli forum needs many "close-to-center" posters around here to hold our hands through the upcoming controversial and historical presidential (s)election.

fyi, all but one of the several agri plays I bailed out of earlier this year are lower today than when I sold. In your weak attempt to bash me, you brilliantly decided to post the only one that's higher, eh?

How's that real estate you are selling in California doing these days, pal?

Just swell...yeah, sure it is.

Yours truly,

Noah Webster

festeringZit in a different thread:

I appreciate you being cordial and curbing the rhetoric. It makes for
a much more fruitful discussion IMHO.

We all have our moments... I just couldn't believe this guy was
making multiple posts about the inadequacies of the poll.
Even when out of the 8 options I had one that gave him an out.

She's out of town this week on business. :smoker2:

Wouldn't you know, the first day she's gone, my 8 year old throws a skateboard
at a kid and breaks the kid's wrist.

What should the kid's punishment be?

He says the kid (who is two years older then he is) was teasing him incessantly.

I guess the kid got his intelligence from his dad.

I hope that makes you feel better to take pot-shots at me.

Have a nice day.
