My wv informs my politics in every possible way, what kind of weird ass question is this?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I was an agnostic theist when I was a Repbulican and when I became a Libertarian; I became an atheist while I was a Libertarian. I feel like my political evolution was due to education more than anything else. I don't believe in spirits or eternal souls, so I'm not worried about embryos or fetuses having souls; but that's about it. I might be pro-choice even if I did think fetuses have souls.

"Captain, my house is burning down, and my daughter and dog are inside"
<reaches into rescue kit, grabs card reader>
"Do you have a valid credit or debit card to swipe?"
"They're in my wallet, inside the building."
"I'm sorry, we're not grabbing a hydrant and laying hose until you show the ability to pay."

Oh -- and don't you dare ask about the money to pay for the water lines feeding the hydrants, or who's paying for the roads hose fire engines ride on.

It's funny that Neil Peart wrote this to support libertarianism, but if you listen to the lyrics you see what he himself missed:
