    Just because someone doesn't toe the party line on every issue does not mean they are "all over the place." People need to think for themselves rather than adopt the addenda of some media whore or party mouthpiece.

    Picking and choosing issues individually, on there own merit, is intelligent and rational as apposed to just buying into a some prepackaged ideology.

    For example it is possible to be pro energy conservation and pro exploration at the same time.


    Sorry about the rant. That just struck a nerve. I feel like this is the #1 underlining issue in American today

    I have no idea what you are talking about. I have no idea who he is influenced by and care less. :huh:

    I said he is "all over the map" because he's often stridently against the right, the left, and the middle as well. It's hard to call him conservative, liberal or moderate. "All over the map" . . . understand?

    I don't see much difference in the right/left/middle . That is why I don't like any of them.

    I don't. But neither do I accuse people of lying and making things up just because they disagree with me and their research doesn't square with mine.

    Suggesting that I do, of course. Well, make your case then.

    Since you never offer your research, we'll never know, will we.

    You're trying to fit people into conservative, liberal or moderate buckets. Exactly my point.

    Most people don't fit into any one category. I am liberal in some aspects as in I think pot should be legal and taxed. I don't care if gays marry. I'm conservative in it pissed me off when the ww1 cross in the desert that was there for over 80 years was removed by liberals or when illegals are treated as if they are American citizens and get handouts. Most people are not totally liberal or conservative.
