But then what's "South Atlantic"?

Tired of ads?

I just did the regional one, and I have to say several of the questions just suck.

"I feel that the death penalty is a just punishment for murder"

Well, actually I do, but because our justice system isn't perfect, I do not support the DP.

"Publicly or privately, parents should be allowed to spank their children"

I personally don't like it, but I've yet to be a parent and I've heard some reasonable people here at 'poly explain why they think it's necessary. That being the case, I do not feel I'm in a position to disallow spanking (as in legislating against it, which is what the question implies). So I answered that I agreed, even though I'm anti-spanking.

Whatever.

Anyway,

1. Rocky Mountain / Alaska
2. Texas
3. Upstate New York
4. Deep South
5. NYC / New England
6. Rust Belt
7. Upper Mid-west
8. Border States: Virginia, Tennessee & Kentucky
9. Pacific Coast / Hawaii
10. Peripheral South
11. Desert Southwest
12. Mid Atlantic
13. South Atlantic

Bullshit. Now let's see if I change those two answers...

1. NYC / New England
2. Upper Mid-west
3. Pacific Coast / Hawaii
4. Rocky Mountain / Alaska
5. Rust Belt
6. Texas
7. Upstate New York
8. Mid Atlantic
9. Deep South
10. Border States: Virginia, Tennessee & Kentucky
11. Peripheral South
12. South Atlantic
13. Desert Southwest

Still a little weird, but better.

Couldn't try the States thing - too far removed.

Mind you, that's bullshit. I just said I strongly disagreed with everything in the poll, because I strongly dislike inexact definitions.

In other words - everything in the poll was a trite, simplistic view of a buffoon.

Now, doesn't that make you all feel better?

EDIT: With "No Preference" (pretty accurate - I have no views on the internal politics of the US) it gave;-

Updated... should I just write all of our names with grey in the graph? It seems to divert attention from the country flags.

Great chart VJ. I happen to live in Canada, but feel free to represent me with the flag of your choice (if I don't like it, I'll just burn it ).

Great job VJ.

I now have a better idea of who to put on my ignore list.

And correctamundo on the proud US flag guess.

Surprisingly no mods took the politcal compass test. Can we only assume they would be off the scale with respect to authoritarian.

Seriously speaken, the flags don't have anything to do with ideology. I'm just keeping them so that it could be easily seen if there would be any correlation with political stance and nationality.
