I disagree. The questions were not constructed well.

Questions like "should gay marriage be legalized?" You mean at the federal level? That doesn't even make any sense. Same with evolution being taught in the schools.

Confusing.

Anyhow, I'm Jimmy Carter.

I agree. Plus, I didn't like having really only two options: yes or no. Making Maybe and Don't Know the same option is likewise dumb.

I ended up with a list of You Think's that I really don't think.

Tex and I agree twice in one week. Clearly the Guard is descending into chaos. Mike has to come back to reinstate order.

That seems to fit me pretty well.

questions are never perfect, but I think the test has pegged everyone on here so far pretty well. I respect your opinion of what's wrong with the test however. With Tex, I'm wondering if it just called him a neocon and he objected.
