Find out where you stand, not just as far as left or right, but with a brand new axis for your graphing pleasure!
There are also some great quotes on there under Iconochasms, like
"I do not consider Hitler to be as bad as he is depicted. He is showing an ability that is amazing and seems to be gaining his victories without much bloodshed." - Gandhi
"If our country were defeated, I hope we should find a champion as admirable (as Hitler) to restore our courage and lead us back to our place among the nations." - Churchill
and of course this gem
"To occupy Iraq would instantly shatter our coalition, turning the whole Arab world against us and make a broken tyrant into a latter-day hero ... assigning young soldiers to a fruitless hunt for a securely entrenched dictator and condemning them to fight in what would be an un-winnable urban guerilla war. It could only plunge that part of the world into even greater instability." George Bush Sr.
Oh and I'm at the same position as the composer Dvorák, damn close to dead center.

In my first review, I was mistaken: I was looking at the example chart that they use to explain your results.
My real results are:
2.88, 1.79
Almost the same as John Kerry. *GAG!*

this site is great, I couldn't remember the name of it. Came across of it about a year ago.
Didn't see that George Bush Sr. quote back then though. Daddy must be proud haha.

Whoops, I'm at the same spot as the composer Smetana, not Dvorak. Never heard of either...

I am a hair to the left and a hair toward authoritarian, but almost at 0,0 on their chart.
