but you have a personal ideal for every question right? i mean you must have a preference as to how you want things to be. that's how i answer these things anyway.

Well take abortion for one example. As we have discussed before(so I really don't want to turn this thread into another discussion - just giving an example), I believe women should have the right to make that decision but only up to a certain point. Whether be it 20 weeks or whatever, unless the mom or baby's life is in danger. So do I answer yes or do I answer no? There is no ideal. The ideal isn't yes or no. The ideal is - it depends. Which means maybe.

my personal ideal can change on one issue if the circumstances change, like Ori just posted. Every circumstance has the chance of different answers for us MOR dudes.

imo, you guys are over thinking it. the abortion debate can be boiled down to if you trust the government or the individual to make the best choice concerning their body - for their body. there's no need to get into specifics as to when an individual should no longer be capable of making that decision and it must default to the government. but i guess this is why i'm rarely center.

For me personally abortion isn't an issue at all, women's choice always no matter the circumstance. I was just referring to how almost any issue can change depending on the circumstance for me.

 

For instance, one of the questions was: Should we spend more money on the military? Well I don't know, does the military need it or is it just boosting up fire power that does not need to be boosted? It all depends on the circumstances.

Forced myself to pick anything but "neutral" on most items, which probably influenced the results.  And "Attila the Hun" wasn't a category. :)

Interesting that a Neo-Con would be considered 'nationalist'....I would've thought they would be considered more globalist/oriented towards 'the bigger picture' in terms of foreign policy.
