Said I was a Left Liberal
I think politicalcompass.org is way off. They put empty platitudes in the form of questions and judge you on whether you support happiness and puppies or not. Smallest Quiz was even worse. They put up an extremist position (like "Do you want to end all taxes?" when there is no way you can just say you'd like to lower taxes.) and then they judge you on whther you agree with their radical stance. The Libertarian Party wrote the quiz and they set it up so more people would come out as Libertarians than really are. Quiz Show had a decently accurate outcome, but the questions had more to do with partisanship than ideology (whether or not I think talk radio has a negative impact on politics doesn't mean much in terms of ideology, but it does tell you where my party loyalties are).
There are no quizzes that give foreign policy enough imporatance either. That's the most important issue to me.
