Liberal and Conservative Oversimplistic Labels?
#7
RE: Liberal and Conservative Oversimplistic Labels?
I'm a pro-gay marriage, anti-affirmative action independent. I'm pro abortion, pro-euthanasia, and pro-gun for those that are able to safely hold and fire a gun. I voted for Obama twice, but would not do it a third time if I could. However, at this point, I also would not vote Republican.

I like the terms, but yes, in the rest of the world, they seem to mean something different. As well, most Americans are somewhere in the middle.
