Yup, I'm a Demo

Via Wayne, I'd seen this little quiz a while back and decided to take the test. Given that I think Bush, Rove, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, et al, are driving this country into the ground, given that I believe Dubya to be lacking in any hint of intellectual curiosity or rigor - and even more void of compassion, given that I have come to believe that many in the Republican party who claim to be driven by moral values are, in fact, driven by intense and absolute greed and little else ....it came as no surprise to me that I scored a 10 on this most unscientific quiz. But hey, at least with this Democrat version of loyalty quiz, no one will be denied entrance to a political rally based on their score (well, at least they won't be denied entrance to a Democrat rally).

Note: I do have friends and family who identify themselves as Republicans, and who I love and respect very much. They are among the many "true" Republicans - vastly different than the lying, cheating, deceiving right-wing neo-conservative faction now in control of the party. I may disagree with some of the opinions or reasoned conclusions of these friends and family, but they are honest and trustworthy. Bush is neither.

I received EXACTLY the same rating you did.

Great minds think alike!

Ha! I received a 10 as well, I guess I'd better watch out for "Big Brother".

well, i wasn't sure i'd get a ten, but i did!

i really would like to see the democrats get a cohesive, real message. i think what they are missing is that the republicans made up a new message, preached it like crazy in all kinds of ways, and then after a while people started believing it. the dems need to find something similar, but something that has actual principles. and then take the long view, forget about the short term and put the think tanks together and put on the radio shows and so on.

I just took this test deliberately answering republican style to see if there were any scores other than 10. There definitely is!Your score is 0 on a scale of 1 to 10. You are a pure, unabashed, die-hard Republican loyalist. You remain fiercely dedicated to fighting the twin evils of terrorism and liberalism, and you'd walk across a field of land mines if it meant casting a deciding vote for a Republican president. In your view, there is no higher form of patriotism than defending America against the Democratic Party and every elitist, French-loving, religion-mocking, America-hating, terrorist-appeasing ideal for which it stands.
