As you can tell by my signature, I am an independent. I vote my conscience, no matter what the party affiliation is. Actually, that isn't quite true as my conscience tells me my vote isn't worth squat. At least I make an attempt. I am pro gun, pro choice, and anti fiscal waste. I believe there is plenty of money in the coffers to have adequate health care, national defense, and necessary social programs without hiking middle class taxes. We just need to go back to pre Reagan taxation and subdue corporate subsidies. The economy thrived before him, mostly because folks had money to spend. Guess that makes me a fuckered up dreamer.

Finally, someone who answered the question in the manor I was looking for. Guess I should have specified what I was looking for a bit more.

Actually, though you might not like hearing it, it makes you a species long thought extinct: a liberal Republican.
