Now, I don't know what political parties are called in Australia, so I'm assuming you mean the US political parties since we have a bad habit of dragging our friends into a fight they probably didn't want to be involved in, particualy when the Republicans are in control. On that view, i tend of have isolationist tendencies in my beliefs. I could care less if afganistan, or Iraq, or any other country, implodes upon itself in the bloodiest of affairs. I think we are far better off taking care of our own, and staying out of the affairs of other nations.
Funny, as much as a "gun nut" i appear to be, I think i'm still quite centrist in my views. I'm sure that is shocking to some.

Good post!
So you don't know what our political parties are? We've got:
The Greens
Labour (In power)
Liberal (Australian Tories)
The Shooting party
The Sex party (
)
Some new party that blames abortion laws for bushfires
Hundreds of independents
At least you Americans only have to choose between two!
