1. Those tests are ridiculus.

The last one I took said I was more liberal than Ghandi! Huh? And I said I liked PORN!

Worthless, in my opinion.

3. My results were almost the same.
I wear it as a kind of badge of honor, even though in reality it doesn't mean squat. :)

10. Ghandi is good company
I'd love to see the faces on the right-wing folks that think they are "compassionate conservatives" but the test tells them they are in Hitler's corner.
