How 'bout you?
*this is not a thread for political discussion. it is a thread for STATING your political affiliation, if you so desire*
thank you.

LOL. Just looking back on this.
I no longer consider myself a liberal democrat. I would now call myself (depending on who I'm talking to) a post-leftist, an anarchist, or a libertarian.
Grad school does that to you.

awesome.
I'm a post-modern situationist.
You're right, grown up politics are way more fun.

Helms is dead
RALEIGH, N.C. - Former Sen. Jesse Helms, who built a career along the fault lines of racial politics and battled liberals, Communists and the occasional fellow Republican during 30 conservative years in Congress, died on the Fourth of July. He was 86
"It's just incredible that he would die on July 4, the same day of the Declaration of Independence and the same day that Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died, and he certainly is a patriot in the mold of those great men," said former North Carolina GOP Rep. Bill Cobey, the chairman of The Jesse Helms Center in Wingate, N.C.
Helms died at 1:15 a.m, the center said. He died in Raleigh of natural causes, said former chief of staff Jimmy Broughton.
"He was very comfortable," Broughton said.
Funeral arrangements were pending, the Helms center said.
"America lost a great public servant and true patriot today," White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said few senators could match Helms' reputation.
"Today we lost a Senator whose stature in Congress had few equals. Senator Jesse Helms was a leading voice and courageous champion for the many causes he believed in," McConnell said in a statement.

tree-hugging, flag-burning, pinko commie LIBERAL!
Which pretty much means I vote with the Democratic party in major elections.
The funny thing is, growing up on the west side of Madison, Wisconsin, I thought I was a "moderate Republican," mainly because I supported the death penalty in some cases, and was bitter about affirmative action in college admissions. Those are really the only two issues I've changed my mind about, and now sometimes I feel like I'm off the liberal deep end. But it feels great!
Obama Biden 08!
and, of course, these are my own freely shared opinions, and do not represent opinions of GPB, etc...

 If I get one more anti-Obama bumper sticker on Facebook, I'm going to scream. When are people going to realize that Christians are NOT prophesied to be a block vote for McCain?

Hahaha, same here...I get a lot of PRObama stuff from other friends who, though they know I'm mildly conservative, figure I'm black so I must be voting for Obama. If they find out I wasn't originally voting for him I get the  face. Assumptions on both sides.
