-- Pro-gay marriage (I'm not gay and have no friends/family that are gay.  It's just that I don't see what the big deal is.)

-- Pro-animal rights legislation

-- In favor of legalization of all drugs (could this be considered a "liberal" position?)

-- In favor of allowing abortion in cases of rape, incest, or danger to life of the mother

-- Opposed to a Right to Life Amendment (I am pro-life but think it should be left up to the states)

-- Conflicted when it comes to foreign policy, not sure where I stand (though I guess you can't really put a Conservative lablel on foreign policy right now)


Maybe you should change to yellow?

--Pro-universal healthcare.
--Pro-progressive taxation
--Pro-gay marriage
--Anti-war on drugs.
--Pro-legalizing prostitution (only if it's very heavily regulated).
--Pro-4th amendment.

     That's all I can think of for now.


We don't agree on anything but this one believe it or not.

You think we should have a flat tax?

NO the tax system is fine the way it is.

The Rich just need to pay a little more.

No tax on Seniors that are still having to work is about the only change I would like to see.

Just checking, you didn't say you agreed with that too.

Maybe he didn't know what "progressive taxation" is?

Reaching huh?

Or I guess in forum terms it starts with T and ends with L

Well, considering some of Mike's other stances I really have no idea what to expect.

Of Course you know iam for spreading the wealth. LOL

To clear up something you said before about blue dogs being conservative on spending.
Yes, they are as in the politicans, however not the base they play to. A major misconception about southern people is that they don't like programs.

Everybody likes "programs" if they are the beneficiary*.  That is one way to tell a Republican from a Democrat, the Dem wants all programs, the Rep just wants his (and sometimes his buddies) programs.  (yes I know that's not universal)


*except us libertarians of course Wink

Yeah, we know you guys don't need no stinkin programs.
