I hate labels as well. I don't like to consider myself a "Liberal", "Conservative", "Democrat", "Repbulican", "Liberitarian", "Green Party", ... whatever. I just consider myself able to make a decision the way I want to. I have never voted down the party lines, and usually take MUCH time deciding who I want for a particular local, state, or federal office, or what items I want to pass through the county, state, or federal system. Many of the people and items on the ballot, this year in particular, were tough to decide on for me.

I think what bugs me most is seeing how far many of us here lean one way or another and care not a bit what the others have to say. Thumbs up for those of you who can look past the party labels.

Oh, and hey vxkween... you're always welcome to a meet in the northwest !
