    I'm sure I've both missed some people and mislabeled some people. I don't mean to start this as a debate, I just remember some references (we talked about it with Clutch last year when we were cool enough for him ;) ), and I just wanted to actually see what the majority of the board is.

    You should have made this a poll. You know, "I regard myself as a: 1) Liberal, 2) Moderate, 3) Conservative, or 4) Other"

    I've thought about asking a similar question myself, just out of curiosity...

    A year ago, I would've been one of about four openly conservative members of the board. Now I can't even get a mention on the list of conservatives (and if I was mentioned, I probably would be in the moderates these days) :) . The board has taken a decidedly right turn in the past year or so (that includes long-time posters who have been more openly conservative over the past year or so), in my opinion.

    But that's just what I think.

    I am mis-labeled. I demand a new category. :)

    Liberal isn't sexy enough for me. I am a visual culture/educational revolutionary, thanks. And you are right, I detest labels.

    I am a liberal if you wanna label me.

    I think Bush is bankrupting our country
    I think bush deffinately did not choke on a pretzel. (if your choking and pass out, the next step is death, not making public apearances)
    I think GWBs involvement in Enron should be investigated.
    pro-lifers suck
    nuclear weapons suck
    oil companies suck
    hell i used to think most texans sucked, but with McKinny about to build a soccer stadium i will narow it down to just "Conservative" texans. and NRA members. :)
    BTW Florida is not on my popular list.

    if Will is reading i still dont own an umbrella.

    ok thats enough being silly fot now. :)

    PEACE

    Thank you for categorizing me right. I was worried that because of some of my past "threads" that I would be mislabelled.:)

    However, I want to know what these following BBSers are:

    Doctor of Dunk
    R0ckets03
    Drewdog
    Rockets Pimp

    It could be that foreign issues have come to the forefront and the conservatives tend to post on those topics more frequently.

    Conservative in nature fiscally, and in foreign affairs.

    Moderate in views concerning citicizen's rights.

    I guess it just depends on how I feel about each issue.

    If the conservatives and liberals got into a fight, we would certainly win because Roxran would shoot all of you. ;)

    But seriously, it seems like the BBS is well balanced in terms of political alignment. The Conservatives are a bit cooler, because we have BK and Clutch, and the Liberals are a bit douchier because you have gettinbranded and ZRB. No offense fellas.
