1/23    cool. answer some questions, the site determines which
        candidates you agree most with:
        http://www.presidentmatch.com/Main.jsp2?cp=main
        \_ That survey gave me 100% on a candidate who i disagree with on
           several issues, as measured by *their* tally.  Is crap.
           \_ I agree.
        \_ cf. http://www.vote-smart.org
        \_ Me and Joe L. matching at 100%,  94% Edwards, 90% Kerry and 86% Bush
           which just goes to show they're not all that different afterall.
           Even got a 67% with Kucinich who I think was always just clutter
           and 69% with Sharpton who never should have had any press at all.
           Poor Joe, I actually do think he's a good guy, but he was so stupid
           to give deference to a scumbag like Gore.  If Joe had balls I might
           actually be a supporter.
        \_ rofl i support kucinich who???
        \_ Kucinich 100% w00t!
           \_ Yeah I also got 100% Kucinich. It's hard to avoid "no opinion"
              on some of the issues. I'm not sure what I think on healthcare.
              Getting the deficit and debt under control is probably more
              important to me than all the other crap. I might actually be
              a conservative at heart but I hate most actual republicans.
        \_ Kerry 100%, Bush 27%.
        \_ Sharpton 100%, Bush 14% (is it sad that I wasn't trying?)
           \_ hahaha, it gives me Kucinich 100%, Dean 90%, Clark 87%,
              Bush 13%
        \_ That site is just wrong.  I'm conservative yet it rates me
           wanting Democrats.  Dean and Sharpton over Bush.  How wrong.
           \_ What issues are you conservative on?  How much did you prioritize
              them over the issues you're liberal on?  If you're a libertarian
              sort of republican, it's not surprising your views don't mesh
              Bush.
              \_ Many of Bush's supporters are simply too stupid to realize
                 his views and policies don't fit with their own.
                 \_ how ignorant of you.  The problem is with their
                    calculations, not with Bush supporters.
                    \_ Their calculations are based on what you stated as
                       your positions, and what Bush states as his.  Why don't
                       you tell us which of Bush's positions they
                       misrepresent?
        \_ You can tell that there are serious problems with this site just
           by how it lists Bush as having served in the military.  True,
           but not really.
           \_ heh, I agree.  Although if Bush was a reservist today deployed
              for a year in Iraq, then I'd see it.

11/2    California Uber Alles is such a great song
        \_ Yes, and it was written about Jerry Brown. I was thinking this
           as I cast my vote for Meg Whitman. I am independent, but I
           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I
           can't believe we elected this retread.
