I consider myself a Moderate/Rockefeller Republican and aligned with the Blue Dog Coalition (which I do not feel is exclusively for Democrats). This is probably a rarity on here. I consider myself generally conservative on most economical issues and very slightly right of moderate on social issues. For economic issues, I support social security, medicare, and that type of stuff in their current form. I'm opposed to Obama care. I generally do not like spending unless it is for education or the military. I do not like any unions except for teachers unions. In social issues, I support gay marriage and gay rights but feel that it should be enacted in legislative stages with the consent of the American public over the next 15 to 30 years and that Proposition 8 should be put on the California ballot again or upheld. I oppose abortion except for cases of rape, health issues, or incest. Marijuana should only be allowed for medical use and with intense doctors supervision for that. Environmentally, I am an "agonistic", I don't believe that global warming conclusively can be proven but that signs of it being possible have happened over the past few years and that we should make reforms about it just in case it is real. In world issues, I believe that the U.S. are the world's policemen and that we should be responsible to promote democracy using our army. As part of this, we need to be a key member of the U.N. even though they oppose us frequently. I feel that the Tea Party is a little dangerous to American politics because it is too conservative and is making the Republican party look bad. I feel the progressive's do the same thing to the Democrat's. Religiously, I am an Episcopalian but I do not attend church regularly at this time.
Personally, I like to read and go on the internet. I am active on the internet using many account names and e-mails. I am a user of Wikipedia (where I normally edit) and Encyclopedia Dramatica (where I am doing a few special projects for a TBD basis). If you need me and I haven't been on here for a while, please contact me on my Wikipedia page as they will be much more comfortable with you than ED will.
Update 1: According to this website, I'm apparently a liberal who hasn't figured it out yet. I find this type of paranoiac fervor very funny. The reason why moderates like me are so few between in the party is because the Tea Partiers on the extreme right try to marginalize us as liberals and it eventually gets weaker minded people fed up. While I would never leave the party, Jim Jeffords did in 2001 and it cost us the Senate for 2 years.
Update 2: As far as I'm concerned, a homosexual agenda doesn't exist. They just want rights. Not every gay is a promiscuous slut like this wiki seems to think. Some straight people men and women have had frequent unprotected sex with multiple partners. We should crusade against the things encouraging people to become whores instead of penalizing the innocent members of a sexuality just because in general; they have a higher ratio of STD's. Most school districts (except a few in Liberalfornia and New York) will be able to explain homosexuality in clear terms that does not encourage it but does not penalize it either.
