Crone, I have taken this one before but I took it again to see if my political profile changed and it did not.

Sorry to bother you! (smoooch) I dumped it, but I was 6 down and 6 across in the lime green left square. Not as left as you but a bit more than Ponder and CL.

Crone, we are practically in the same place. The last time I took that test I was one half square to the left of you and 2 squares down.
I think we would be considered ''libertarian communists'' which seem diametrically opposed to the neo-liberal fascists, like GWBush, Silvio BerIusconi and Nicolus Sarkozy; I can live with that.

Oh! I didn't see this earlier...oh, okay. That's a nice place!
I wish more folks would take it, it's a fun way to see ourselves and share.

I told a Facebook friend that I had gotten even more leftist and anarchist since the tea bagger House took office.
Someone else on Facebook posted that 49% of newborn babies were on foodstamps, are we sure we can't let the tax cuts disappear? One of her 'friends' replied: "I'm not so sure that's where our money should be going, I'm sick and tired of people having kids who can't afford them!"
Well, okay, just let them starve, then.
I hope you don't lose YOUR job and have no food for your kids!
Stop the madness!!!!

The chart shows a descent in the path to anarchy. So, the whole thing is upside down.

I was surprised that I'm that far left. I wonder: If one would take the test once a month for a year, what the average would be?

Cheating on a test that only you see would be meaningless. However, if you are embarrassed by your political stance and plan to share the results, then falsifying the test results may be the best course.
