My favorite political quiz is one I ganked from Timebomb.

Also, wtf is up with Livejournal's built-in textbox spellchecker insisting I misspelled "favourite"? Or does the actual spell checker live on my computer, and livejournal merely tells my computer to activate it for this textbox?

I think it's your computer (mine never started making squiggly red lines at me until I installed a newer OS) ... you could always try to find your default dictionary and change it to British English :)

Interesting. According to that quiz, I'm more conservative than you. That's odd considering I always considered myself to be just right of Trotsky.

Well, when it comes to things like worker's rights, unions, health care, etc, I'm about as far left as they come; they asked a lot of questions about those (as well as abortion and gay marriage). I was a little thrown by the question that asked if it was fair that some people made much more than others... I agree, but not to the extent that CEO's make thousands of times as much as their factory workers! So, I'm definitely to the right of Trotsky :)

Yes! I thought the fairness questions were kind of weird too. A lot of the questions seemed to be loaded and often sort of missed the point. They were the kind of questions that pundits throw out there like hand grenades on those awful TV talk shows.
