ROFL, Fas perhaps?

I'm like Ghandi, I guess.
He was much further over on both axes. You're probably closer to Prince Charles.

That's great. Now could someone explain to me just what the hell that means?
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
Also near Ghandi. C'mon now, we can't all be bleedin' hearts!
I'm just waiting for Buck's score to balance us out. The only question is will he be the benevolent Hitler type dictator or the cruel Thatcher type! (Joking, of course. Stalin is Buck's kind of guy! )

Gods, I think I'm still the big radical, here. Maybe I'll call myself Red Fable, the Banshee Bolshevik. Could put myself up on display for a few hours each weekday. Who knows? Might generate some extra revenue for this particular working class comrade.

But I must say that I prefer this political test to the one presented by The Z. Maybe because it is presented by a pseudo-libertarian organization. But I think it does a better job of describing your results. Check it out.
EDIT: The one I link to is shorter, but it doesn't have quite so many loaded questions, either. I had a hard time answering some of The Z's questions, because they were just way too deep for a simple Agree/Disagree. Maybe that's just me.
South-You are a Southerner-an egalitarian-which means that you advocate an increased role for the government in the economic realm. You are more or less pleased the government's role in the personal realm.
Better questions on this one, IMO - but the result wasn't really very accurate Probably not enough questions....

Oh, I suppose I should give my results for my own test.
NW-You would feel most at home in the Northwest region. You advocate a large degree of economic and personal freedom. Your neighbors include folks like Ayn Rand, Jesse Ventura, Milton Friedman, and Drew Carey, and may refer to themselves as "classical liberals," "libertarians," "market liberals," "old whigs," "objectivists," "propertarians," "agorists," or "anarcho-capitalist."
Right-o! I'm an ANARCHO-CAPITALIST!!
I should also note that my test does require that you submit an e-mail address. I gave them mine some time ago, and have not been spammed by them (I did check off the box that said "please send me more info.") But you can also give a bum e-mail, if giving out that info bothers you.
