My $.02. That was the least scientific survey I have ever taken. No objectivity at all.


It was like being in England again . . .even the most liberal of folks from the US was conservative.

it's lonely in the middle

i've got neighbors to the right that drive load gas guzzling smelly cars, dump used motor oil down the storm drains and practice shooting their guns all night

the neighbors to the left smoke pot, hold political rallies and cry all over my nice new patio furniture

I see that as the "You were successful because you won the Lottery in life." Line


is there Luck? Heck yes, but I often see long term success as the result of hard smart work.

Heck no one works harder than some General laborers...but then you consider about 80% of what we call millionaires....

Thats what I tell people about college. Anyone can be successfull if you just work hard and put in the time. But if you want to be successfull and take it easy while you do it, go to college.

(actually the term for Christians now is "Orthodox" not Conservative, or "Unorthodox" I guess for the Libbies which might not fit since I would consider myself both orthodox and 'progressive' (liberal) in some ways). Such is the mess we generate with labels.........
