I notice there is a lesbian posting here, that's cool. You'll know why in just a minute.
I'm 21 year old guy, and am a college student at my campus. I'm heavily involved in activism, and have taken part in several equal rights marches. I believe that marriage is a right, and not a privilege. I'm also a supporting member of HRC. However, this does not mean I'm not a liberal or a conservative. While I'm very socially progressive, I'm economically pro-free market. So perhaps you could categorize me as a libertarian. I usually question both sides, and sometimes can get in trouble for that. I'm also gay, and have been out to my parents and friends since I was 16.
As far as both political parties are concerned... there are some people I like in both, and yes I do like California's current governor... but I feel both political parties are going in the wrong direction in serving special interest, and are extremely selfish. |

It's not about standing them, it's about defeating them logically, which you have failed to do.  |

Oh please. I have defeated you numerous times, including in that one thread on that myspace forum about communism. Don't you even dare tell me I haven't defeated any of them logically. |

You're haven't ever produced a logical argument, and I basically destroyed your argument in communism. So what else is there?  |

My family took it well. Unfortunately I lost a few friends but I really wonder if these people were true friends. I told this one "friend", with him promising to keep a secret... well it turns out he ended up telling several people, and it spread like wildfire throughout my school. Shows how much you can trust someone. |

Hello there, I am a musician from Scotland and received an invitation to join in the fun. Politically I am an old fashioned Socialist which means that since the advent of New Labour in the U.K. I have been effectively disenfranchised. So now I am a floating voter and proud of it. The only trouble is there is no one worth voting for!
My outlook on life is pro-life. I am equally against abortion and against the bomb. |

Hello,
You may call me Miss Bettie or Bettie if you want because I am not telling you my real name. I do not consider myself Democrat or Republican because both are corrupt and equally stupid at times. I am pro-choice and a feminist. I am very big on sexual freedom also. I enjoy writing stories and poems and I can kick your ass on an abortion debate. |
