Your Political Compass - Non-Wakeboarding Discussion

I ripped this off from the other site... But thought it would be interesting over here. Rules are, you cannot comment, just take the test and post the result. Maybe after 30-35 graphs, we can comment have some commentary...

I'll even use JT's words....
Let's see if we can do something interesting and fun w/ politics instead of bitching about them. Take a couple of minutes to answer this quiz as honestly as possible:

how did you guys post your graph?

(pesos)

If you're on winblows save the PNG graphic from your browser, then open it up with Paint and resave as gif or jpeg, which you can then post...

I was able to upload mine directly as a PNG graphic, whatever that is.

I was able to upload mine directly as a PNG graphic, whatever that is.

PNG is similar to a GIF but with more color support and better compression not to mention a compression algorithm that is not under patent. Back i the day unisys tried to enforce their patent and charge people to be able to use the GIF format. That one went over pretty well...

deltahoosier 01-31-2010, 5:34 PM

Yep. Saved it directly to the hard drive and then uploaded it.

I need to study this a bit more, but I thought I would be more right. I guess if you do not strongly anything, you are squarely in the middle.

Compare the results here to the 2008 Primary compass.

Not that surprising. I'd still like to see a Kucinich/Paul ticket lol

I doubt that politicians actually took this test. Most of the questions were pretty leftists in tone. My guess they are guessing where they think these people are. Considering Barack Obama is more aligned with the progressive party than most of them.
