no one compared hitler with republicans. it’s just a silly internet quiz.
of course, i would say that since i’m 19% republican and (according to my results) it’s all my fault bush is in the white house: “You’re a tax-and-spend liberal democrat. People like you are the reason everyone else votes for guys like Reagan or George W.”
To be clear, I’m not criticizing Liza in any way. I was interested in taking the quiz but simply could not answer #4. I have this pesky little problem about taking genocide seriously.
You are:
44%
Republican. Congratulations, you’re a swing voter. When they say “Soccer Mom”, they mean you. Every Democratic ad on the TV set was made just for your viewing enjoyment. Don’t you feel special?
Curiously low. I would have expected higher. On the other hand I consider myself to be a Conservative - not a Republican. I am not in communion with the “Neo-Cons” who are in charge of the Republican Party these days.
(The Neo-Con position that it is appropriate to go and meddle in other peoples business and “improve” their lot by imposing your way of life on them is not a true Conservative stance. World Improvement is a Liberal Philosophy.)
Although I am not quite to the extreme, iffy on whether the use of Fire is a good thing, brand of Conservatism either. Probably more of an old Southern Democrat “Fiscally Conservative - Socially Moderate” position really. (The Government needs to have Balanced Books, just like a business. If a Government wants to do something it needs to identify the income to pay for it just like everyone else.)

Comparing Hitler with Republicans? Not cool. That totally trivializes the Holocaust.

I’m with Emilin, but silly internet quizzes are fun. I’m 2% Republican. How did I get that much?

I wasn’t wild about that question either, but I still thought the quiz was entertaining.
And in case you’re worried, I promise that Jill isn’t really 44% Republican. More conservative than me? Yes. But not THAT much more.

I got almost 30% Republican.
I’m blaming it on pregnancy hormones and the fact that I was only able to sleep 2 hours last night.

49% here. I’m not surprised, but does that make me 51% Democrat?
The more research I do, the more I feel like a Libertarian. Except for the legal pot thing, which I just can’t get on board with.
