Here's where I fit:
Abortion Is A Woman's Right: Strongly Oppose
Sexual Orientation Protected By Civil Rights Law: Support (in regards to as what I think civil rights are for everybody)
Permit prayer in public schools: depends. Outright religious? Oppose. Moment of silence/non-sectarian? support.
Death Penalty: Support in some cases.
Mandatory "Three Strikes" Sentencing Laws: neutral. I support tough sentences, but judges should have some leeway.
Drug Use Is Immoral: Enforce Laws Against It: Oppose. Well, I support enforcing laws against it... i'm just opposed to the laws themselves.
Allow Churches to Provide Welfare Services: Strongly Support
Link Human Rights to Trade with China: Support
Require Companies To Hire More Women/Minorities: Strongly Oppose
More Federal Funding for Health Coverage: Strongly Oppose
Privatize Social Security: Strongly support
Reduce Use of Coal and Oil as Energy Sources: neutral (I support the idea in theory, but in practice it'll be a boondoggle)
Decrease Overall Taxation of the Wealthy: Strongly support (and for the not-so-wealthy, too!)
Immigration Helps Our Economy - Encourage It: nominal support, but look extra carefully at anyone from the Mideast.
Support and Expand Free Trade: nominal support - free trade with our allies as a 'reward'
Seek UN Approval for Military Action: Strongly oppose.
Absolute Right To Gun Ownership: Strongly (perhaps not Bono-esque but still) support
Parents Choose Schools Via Vouchers: Support
More Spending On Armed Forces: Support (more, but not too much more)
Reduce Spending on Missile Defense ("Star Wars"): Oppose

Throw in a few more to differentiate myself more from standard Republicans:

Support legal prostitution: Support
Ban gambling: Oppose
Support legalization of homosexual 'marriage': nominal Support, but the way it was done in Massachusetts was atrocious

Oh, and as a disclaimer, I took my positions from issues2002.org and copied and pasted from another questionaire on this forum, though I can't remember who created it.
But thank you for using my name in the subject line; I feel so important.

I posted in the original thread for this purpose and I'm not a big fan of arbitrarily increasing my post count by posting the same thing twice:

Here's my answers to the same positions
