I think anyone who has read my musings might be able to answer these for me. I think I’ll post these on my “About” page for anyone new.
1. Which political party do you typically agree with?
I’m not a group person. All political parties expect you to follow their particular agenda. I’ve been involved with the Republican Party in local issues, and believe most folks in local politics share similar views. The Republicans, however, are more consistent in working to solve problems rather than talk about them.
2. Which political party do you typically vote for?
Probably Republican 90% of the time. I’ve only voted a straight ticket once in my life.
3. List the last five presidents that you voted for?
In reverse order, Bush, Dole, Bush, Bush, Reagan. I voted for Carter his first election, and was eager to vote against him his second.
4. Which party do you think is smarter about the economy?
Republican. I’m a libertarian, and they profess belief in lower taxes and smaller government. I want to see them make good on these things.
5. Which party do you think is smarter about domestic affairs?
Again, I’m a libertarian and the Republican Party believes you can help people, but not run their lives.
6. Do you think we should keep our troops in Iraq or pull them out?
We pull out, the war on terrorists is over…until they hit us again. Hard.
7. Who, or what country, do you think is most responsible for 9/11?
Al-Qaeda directly and hard-core Muslims in general.
8. Do you think we will find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?
Undoubtedly. I think we will find many more in Syria (eventually), and some will show up in the US in an attack.
9. Yes or no, should the U.S. legalize marijuana?
No. Here is one place where the Libertarian Party and I part ways. It is tacitly legal right now in most places. Why ask for more problems?
10. Do you think the Republicans stole the last presidental election?
I lost count of groups doing recounts. All showed Bush beating Gore. The attempted theft was from Gore’s side.
11. Do you think Bill Clinton should have been impeached because of what he did with Monica Lewinski?
He wasn’t impeached for activity with Monica. He purjured himself in a sworn deposition. For that offense, yes.
12. Do you think Hillary Clinton would make a good president?
Bill was just a good old boy who viewed the Presidency as a new way to meet women. Hillary scares me. Really scares me.
13. Name a current democrat who would make a great president:
Lieberman is the only one with any credibility. The Democrats have become a one-issue party: Abortion.
14. Name a current Republican who would make a great president:
Condoleeza Rice.
15. Do you think that women should have the right to have an abortion?
Early, yes. But I would counsel against it.
16. What religion are you?
Reformed Baptist, and a combination of all religions I’ve read.
17. Have you read the Bible all the way through?
Yes. Several times.
18. What?s your favorite book?
Tough. Fail Safe is one I’ve read many times. A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court might top it.
19. Who is your favorite band?
Beatles and Buffett.
20. Who do you think you?ll vote for president in the next election?
Bush. If he does something really stupid, I’d have a tough time. Kerry is a definite no-go.
21. What website did you see this on first?
Hud’s Blog-O-Rama
