funkejay 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2007 If anyone is interested, I recently received an email that contained a link to a website that claims to plot out your political ideology (perspective) on a dual axis 'compass'. You take a quick test that asks a variety of questions about your political and social views, then tabulates your responses and displays the results on a grid, relative to the positions of various world leaders (both historical and current). If anyone is interested, here is the link.....Political Compass Once a few have taken the test, I might even disclose where I placed on the grid......

C'mon Jay, throw aside the political talk and get into racing again! There are many political forums that are populated by people far smarter than those here. We're all just petrol-heads with a few notions of politics.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
