I'd bet he purposely answered right wing so he could post that in some inane troll attempt.
Yeah, that's my guess as well.

I lean left on social issues, but very far right on economic ones. The problem with polls like this is that there isn't a section where there is a true "middle". If you note, there are 8 areas, where there should really be 9.

Full disclosure: every one of my answers was based exclusively on individual freedom and liberty. Less government regulation, the abolishment of taxes, the abolishment of social entitlements, but freedom of choice for women. Yet, that makes me center left? Ooooooook.

97% for Republicans for VA.... not a shocker.
I was surprised it was so low.

Actually I thought the libertarian side would be a little higher. But I guess the foreign policy and mary-jane brought it down.

But yeah, according to what this poll considers R answers I scored high. Sadly I'm sure I scored much higher than most in Congress who claim to be R's.

Labeling these by party really isn't the best method because a high R score = conservative even though most R's these days are far from being conservatives.

You're no Libertarian, VA. You blindly support too many crackpot Republican policies which divert freedom and liberty from people and hand it back to the Government.

Congress doesn't have any real Republicans nor does it have any real Democrats. It's filled with a collection of socially distorted, big government, liberty stealing blowhards who are only focused on being re-elected rather than creating reasonable policy.

I know I'm not a Liberterian. But I do share many of the same views as them on quite a few issues.

There are a few on both sides. No doubt though that the Democrats have far more liberals in their party than Republicans have conservatives. And yeah, there are far too many in the R party that are D's or are primarily concerned about power and status quo. McCain, McConnell, Peter King, Collins, Graham just to name a few of the more prominent one's.

Too many of those, and too few Rand Paul's.
