I have a neighbor who says he is moderate, yet every political concept that comes out of his mouth is Michael Moore-ish paranoia. Seriously. This self-proclaimed "moderate" has a political outlook that can be summarized in this sentence: "Chimpy Hitler Bush is the dumbest evil genius in the history of fascism."
A more reliable indication of political philosophy would be a survey of questions over very general beliefs and very specific issues. The one many of you have posted here is too simple to be reliable. Sounds like a good job for someone in this forum... Any takers?
