9) Despite the fact that this is a parody of other "Conservative vs Liberal" polls, and the fact that I do acknowledge that there is alot of grey area and complexity, and that no one neatly fits these labels, I do generally believe in the definitions that I put forth (and obviously, I do have a liberal bias overall). Do you tend to agree or disagree with my definitions?

|---|---|---|
