Are You Liberal or Conservative? - Page 3

10. Not surprising since she's my candidate, but I thought I'd be a little more middle of the road like Bill. She has pulled to the center recently so maybe that is the DLC influence.

The test was a little nutty. My favorite question was choosing which one was crazier - Jocelyn Elders who just thought kids should know about condoms and Pat Robertson who brought us such intellectually stimulating statements as:

"Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It is the same thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-based media and the homosexuals who want to destroy the Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything suffered by any minority in history."

IN RESPONSE TO GAY DAYS AT DISNEYWORLD:"
I would warn Orlando that you're right in the way of some serious hurricanes, and I don't think I'd be waving those flags in God's face if I were you, This is not a message of hate -- this is a message of redemption. But a condition like this will bring about the destruction of your nation. It'll bring about terrorist bombs; it'll bring earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor."

IN RESPONSE TO WOMEN WANTING EQUALITY:
"(T)he feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."

"I know this is painful for the ladies to hear, but if you get married, you have accepted the headship of a man, your husband. Christ is the head of the household and the husband is the head of the wife, and that's the way it is, period."

ADVOCATING THE NUKING OF THE STATE DEPARTMENT:
"Maybe we need a very small nuke thrown off on Foggy Bottom to shake things up"

ADVOCATING THE ASSASSINATION OF HUGO CHAVEZ:
"You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war ... We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability. We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."

IN RESPONSE TO 9/11:
"I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way -- all of them who have tried to secularize America -- I point the finger in their face and say: "You helped this happen."

honestly, we can do better...
