plug rooty's positions into this

Oh you're from NYC, the most liberal city in the most liberal state. That explains your arrogant cluelessness and militant ignorance.

(Choose A if you agree, M for Maybe, D if you disagree.)

Government should not censor speech, press, media or Internet. A - The notable exception was where the liberal media accused him of censoring "art" at the Brooklyn museum, when what he was really against was taxpayer funding of obscene garbage marquerading as art.

Military service should be voluntary. There should be no draft.No reason to suspect this would be anything but "A"

There should be no laws regarding sex for consenting adults.A, of course

Repeal laws prohibiting adult possession and use of drugs. I'm pretty sure Rudy has no problem with medical marijuana, but since I don't know for certain, I'll give this one a "D"

There should be no National ID card. Rudy is pro-immigration. A

End "corporate welfare." No government handouts to business. A

End government barriers to international free trade. A. Rudy as been very vocal about free trade for over 20 years.

Let people control their own retirement; privatize Social Security. A.

Replace government welfare with private charity. A. Welfare reform was Rudy's second greatest accomplishment as mayor.

Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more. M.

Those responses are pretty honest, based on Rudy's track record. I invite you to plug them in and find out for yourself that Rudy is solidly libertarian. To be fair, I think your quiz skews everybody to look libertarian, but Rudy defintely walks like a duck.

"Cluelessness and militant ignorance?" Sheesh!

Rooty was a strong supporter of McCain Feingold as I remember

End "corporate welfare." No government handouts to business

First new city golf course in 35 years lots of subsidies to the entertainment industry sort of contradicts this.

Welfare reform was Rudy's second greatest accomplishment as mayor.

Just exactly how did he reform it? Do you have a link? This was a federal initiative signed into law by Klintoon.

Cut taxes and government spending by 50% or more. M.

NYC budget grew substantially while Rooty was mayor, further there was abudget surplus (in 2000?) This was not returned to the taxpayers, but spent. Sorry Rooty is a statist, not a libertarian.
