I came across this site the other day - www.politicalcompass.org
It occured to me that some of the threads on this blog have a lot of "you must be a Grauniad reader" or "you must be a Torygraph reader" perhaps those posters would like to check what their "real politics" are. Perhaps they could update us if they try it out.
A few people have labelled me as an extreme right wing thinker but this showed me as being a little to the left.
Right or wrong I don't know, but an interesting experiment.

Quite amusing. Authoritarians seem to think that other people should be told what to do all the time and then shut up and get on and do it. Odd thing is they seem to think they have a personal exemption from being on the receiving end of orders all these lovely orders.
I'd be happy to give them a few.
Oh yes, I came out as a leftwing libertarian. Guardian? Mealy mouthed, wishy washy, pale pink tosh if you ask me - not that you will.
Oh, hey man, chill
Y'now, i mean like, whashappening?
I just thought all you daddios should like, hey man, just believe.
The good times are here, or mebbie there, but y'know like good things, hey, they just roll.
Yours
A HITLER
PS
Not like THE Hitler.
The simple dichotomy between torygraph (rightwing authoritarian) and grauniad (leftwing libertarian) is fun but where do sunman and mailfemale fit in?
Right on Hitler man. The hippies got going in the USofA when the government had blundered into a deeply unpopular war and went from the hyped up vision of Kennedy's new camelot to the depths of unpopularity.
Any chance of history repeating itself?
Hey baby
y'know like the Sunman, I mean, I sit facing South and like the Sun is on my left.
Sorry, I've just confused myself because this is p.m. and there isn't any sun.
Oh, shit man, don't bogart that joint
Dear 2:42
The hope of the sixties versus the cynicism of the noughties.
P.S.
It is a rumour that the great and all wonderful Kennedy knew the great and ALL wonderful Marilyn Monroe, so I am sure that he came a lot.

I like it!
Thanks RobO
Any chance you can link in the number 23?
Hiya RobO
here's a challenge for you - or maybe not?
As we Red Dwarf fans know, Kennedy was not only shot by LHO, but also by himself.
How does Lincoln compare to that?
Cheers
