how would you describe yourself politically? I'm not going to flame you.
I like to think I'm open-minded but definitely lean to the right. I'm by no means a political guru but I have my own ideas and opinions about things--I don't think it's the government's place (especially the Federal government) to run people's lives. I don't like it when a President thinks it's his job to micro-manage private enterprise. I'd like to see Obama take steps to facilitate businesses and private individuals in an economic rebound (e.g. lowering taxes) without feeling the need to socialize them and try to do it all and be all things to all people, basically.
What Hedgehog might describe as a "laissez-faire" mentality, I might rather term letting industry sort itself out--people will buy quality products and if a business is crap, it deserves to fail and be overtaken by the competition. This encourages and rewards excellence and innovation.
Socially I may not be so conservative. I'm pro-life but not militantly so--there are certainly circumstances when abortion is appropriate such as in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother's life is in danger. Anyway I could go on but it's late and I've got work in the morning and I'm brain-dead and could probably answer this much more concisely and succinctly in the morning, but anyway there ya go, hopefully that sort of answers your question to some extent.
