Strangest political views of people you know

[Alcon]

My grandpa is a hard-line Soviet Socialist Atheist who staunchly opposes abortion and same-sex marriage.

How is that strange?

Socialist atheist against abortion is strange. The Soviet Union was the first country to legalize abortion and Communists generally has no problem with it. But I guess his grandpa is just a staunchly Conservative man which for many Russians of his generation equals Communist.
You could argue that most old Soviet Commies are Conservatives on social issues, but I don't think that is necessarily true and "Socialist atheist Social Conservative" is an odd combo anyway.

He says that dislikes Reagan, McCain, Goldwater and Bush II but he likes Gore, Giuliani, Santorum and Bush I.

I'd wager this is a pretty awful demographic for those two issues, though.  That's Al's point
