Hah! You right wing authoritarian bastard! :D hehehe, just kidding. I'm not surprised that I skewed that much towards Libertarian but I am surprised I was that far left. I'm going to have to work harder on my greedy content baron image.

hehehe, that sorta has a nice ring to it :) It would be really interesting to see dots for the whole SL population on that chart. I'm guessing that lower left quadrant would be completely filled in and everything else would still have background showing through.

Cool site, thank you.

I thought I would score more towards center on the Social Libertarian/Authoritarian scale. My result on the Left/Right scale is about what I expected.

Pretty much what I expected. Glad to see from their charts that they have Tony Blair exactly where he should be.

I think I'm right there with most everyone else.

I do have to say I find the tool flawed. I don't think the questions determining you as a conservative were fairly worded.

Never doubted it, Billy -- It's just your faith in your own internal moral compass that I doubt. You're a much better person than your propensity for blathering rightwing talking points would indicate. Trust your feelings, Luke.
