I'm going to be the thing that the ACLU fears almost as much as Boy Scouts; A WASP-Male Conservative. :)

Actually - try being an Atheist, Female, Pro-Life, Conservative. ;-)

Should be too hard, sometimes you cannot fit a single label. Myself, I'm very conservative religiously, socially, on the family and militarily but I tend to be moderate economically. Economically, I'm closer to Tony Blair than Ronald Reagan. If you place me on the "Red-Blue Scale," I'm very red on most everything else but an nice shade of purple or maroon on the economy. I guess growing up in Pittsburgh, you have your Archie Bunker types yet they tend to look upon FDR favorably along with generally being pro-labor. Even though I'm registered Republican, I fall into that category the most. I admit, taken on average, economically, I lean a little to the left of the average Freeper. There are times I was on the short end of the economic ladder so that helped shaped my populist beliefs, another idol of mine is William Jennings Bryant. I guess overall, I'm a right-wing populist. B-) So sometimes you cannot fit everybody into the general labels of Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Conservative, Middle of the Road, you have subsets of everyone. In essence, there is no truly monolithic system in whatever "ism" you're talking about.

Dang, I've gotten to serious, time to go to the jukebox and put on "The Pina Colada Song" (1979) by Rupert Holmes.
