		And  this test isn't the best one I can imagine - the lack of a neutral option in the question seems inappropriate, to me. 
It is, however, the best I can recall having  seen. I'd be interested in looking at anything better, but don't feel obligated. 
Ja, -n 
('socialist,' hmm? seems fairly accurate.)

Moi, aussi. On the famous people display, the little cursor indicating me was planted practically on Hillary's forehead.  (I consider the political prominence of Hillary Clinton to be proof that there  is a God, and He's MALEVOLENT.)

		I don't recognize the hair of the face that my dot is on. Considering she's the only girl there though, that's probably... Hillary Clinton? She looks a bit different than she does now.  
I'm apparently a social and economic liberal aka Democrat. Huh. I would have thought I'd be closer to the middle although that would probably unfortunately place me on top of John Kerry's face.  
I can see the Teresa Heinz appeal because she looks really approachable and sort of autumn/wind-tossed look, but I'm a bit sad to see that apparently Michelle Obama has right now the lowest score as most attractive spouse.

I came up as a Socialist - almost border-line Democrat. ("You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness). 
Of course, they have Gandhi listed as a socialist too.

I wonder if they moved Hilary? My cursor was on her head too (above and left (in the direction of "Democrat") of Gandhi's picture), and I came up Socialist.

Do you see the image in the middle of the page? The start button is right below that.

		Something was going wrong with my connection to the page, then, because there was no such thing.

Hmm. What were your numbers? I registered 73% Social Liberal and 31% Economic Liberal -- it's probably more correct to say I was in her hair rather than on her forehead. 
Some of my answers may have skewed the results somewhat. I  would defend my property with lethal force, and I only reluctantly disagreed with the proposition that dueling should be legal. (I often daydream about finishing an argument with the words, "In a more civilized time, I would invite you to continue this discussion through seconds.")

		I got similar scores DHBirr, but I think the score is off quite a bit in many ways. Still it is a reasonably good aproximation of my position. 
E: "Did they... did they just endorse the combination of the JSDF and US Army by showing them as two lesbian lolicons moving in together and holding hands and talking about how 'intimate' they were?" 
B: "Have you forgotten so soon? They're phasing out Don't Ask, Don't Tell."

		Hmmmm. I came up as libertarian, which isn't much of a surprise. It's what I've gotten on other similar tests. 
Funny thing is, I had a friend who had about the same beliefs as mine, who also tended to get libertarian on these kinds of tests... and he absolutely *loathed* libertarians. I never quite learned why, and I don't know enough about their positions to make guesses either. 
Some of the questions really do need a neutral position I think. And possibly some more positions than that. Though at least one I'm not sure needs more than two. Tests are certainly a tricky business.

		the problem with libertarians is that they have quite a big spectrum. I am more or less a libertarian, but I favor more economic controls than most libertarians I have met. Most libertarians are very strongly on the economic freedom side whereas I am more on the personal freedom side. 
I also think that the US needs more economic controls, and of a different kind. Instead of creating perverse incentives (oh no I got a raise, now I can't pay for my home anymore) and working against the market they should be working with the market. 
meh libertarian Technocrat (more along the lines of the X-COM party than the real one) probably best defines my beliefs.
