SIMPLE POLL: Are you Liberal? Are you Conservative? Or are you an Independent

no affiliation to what? a political group? when you say liberal, moderate, or conservative you're looking at a political ideology. so what im asking is: can i claim to have no political efficacy and be an independent? can i also have some sort of faith in the goverment and a democracy/republic and still be an independent? What if I think of myself as a liberal/conservative but don't belong to the democratic,republican, green, etc party? wouldn't i be an independent then also?
One-dimensional categories of "left" and "right" are too simplistic in determining someone's politlcal beliefs.
I assume that by this line you mean the social aspect of politics, since if it were the economic dimension it would be
Left.............................................Right
Where the far right signifies completely liberal, laissez-fair economic views whereas the far left is basically for a state-controlled economy.
One needs to consider both the economic and social dimension.

Venom.....The Liberal/Moderate/Conservative would have been more appropriate.....Independant belongs in between Democrat and Republican.
Im a registered independant, with strong conservative values. I voted conservative. Had you put something like Democrat/Independant/Republican, I would have voted Independant.

^^^ one can be like that. they are called Libertarians. most are right of center and agree alote more with conservatives but at times disagree strongly with them and side with liberals, especially on social issues.
Phil is one. personally i think there is a little bit of libertarian in all of us. well maybe NOT all of us, socialists and commies are about the farthest thing from Libertarians
