ok, here goes:
don't you know that right and left is reversed over there with the commies?
The picture clearly states that "Social progress: evolution" for the lefties
but in commie nations if your for progress, change and anything that is different than official government policy, they call you right wingers:doh:
you know, the picture implies that the political spectrum is a line segment
instead, it should be a circle! you can either go clockwise or counter clockwise, but if you go too far in one direction, you will actually end up on the other side!(like in Animal farm)
The only problem is Americans cannot be so neatly categorized.
I've seen Republicans that coddled their children or were atheists and Democrats who are disciplinarians or strict Roman Catholics and so on.

Give us some...I've brought some marshmallows to roast on the flames. :yep:

I think in some ways it is that simple. Of course generalities never can cover everything, and individuals remain just that, but that chart is actually a pretty good summation of the American political mainstream.

I do admit to disappointment at the membership's reaction to this thread. If we are unable to ask the necessary questions, then we are no better than blind following the blind. Therefore, I will ask the necessary question:
What type of beer is Jim bringing, and in what quantaties?

Yes. I'm in doubt whether you'll bring any at all. You may start out that way, but how much will be left when you arrive? :O:

People need to stop labeling and go past it.
There's only people. All kinds of people.
If you realize this then all things become second place or even trivial. What is a nation: People. What is a government? People! What is friendship? people. What is love? that special person who is part of a people(her family). What is business? People!(customers, colleagues, suppliers, boss), what is a regime? people! what is family: people who you hold dear! What is enemies? People whom you hate or hate you! What is ideologies? ideas from the head of people or aspirations from certain people. Again people are behind everything. The only thing that's not dependent on other people is your relationship with God but most people contend themselves with just practising religion or worse worshiping it due to not knowing any better and again there's a collection of people behind religion.
You see it's all people.
Even most of our social and political problem and even certainly economic ones are all rooted or caused by people. Perhaps they are a very large group of people but certainly they are caused by people and what is caused by people can always be remedied by people. Furthermore if you correct or change the people most problems would be immediately solved even if not immediately. If you can't correct people there's always death(no I mean natural death). That way death can certainly be viewed as a big friend of mankind and a magnificent problem solver.
