But I already knew that. My ACLU card tells me as much.

[Buck Rabbit]

29. I came up the same. but.....

frankly I needed an "all of the above" more often than a "none of the above"

[Bluzmann57]

8. One of them damn hippies

At least that's (sort of) what it said. Which is humorous, because I remember the hippie era, the '60's, although I was fairly young.

44. It said

"You're so liberal you didn't even take the test. Do you own a Prius?"

Maybe it didn't like the fact that I didn't like their choice of books and refused to pick one. No I don't own a Prius, but I'd like to. We rented one for a vaction a couple of years back. Great car.

[goodgd_yall]

45. Peace Patroller here, although...

I would have thought from some of my answers that I'd be either a reality-based intellectualist or a social justice crusader. Must have been the candidate theme song Peace Train. Though I have to say, the older one gets and the more wars you see the country starting, the more pacifistic I get.
