Neocon quiz results
Based on your answers, you are most likely an Isolationist. Read below to learn more about each foreign policy perspective.
Isolationist
The term isolationist is most often used negatively; few people who share its beliefs use it to describe their own foreign policy perspective. They believe in "America first." For them, national sovereignty trumps international relations. Many unions, libertarians, and anti-globalization protesters share isolationist tenets.
Isolationists…
Are wary of US involvement in the United Nations
Oppose international law, alliances, and agreements
Believe the US should not act as a global cop
Support trade practices that protect American workers
Oppose liberal immigration
Oppose American imperialism
Desire to preserve what they see as America's national identity and character
Historical isolationist: President Calvin Coolidge
Modern isolationist: Author/Commentator Pat Buchanan

It's remarkable how close this post sits to the line of personal attack without actually crossing it.

Not personal, just a somewhat accurate stereotype. I should know, I used to be a liberal once when I was young and uninformed.

Hardly. Your post shows that you're older & just as uninformed...
Nothing personal, of course.

Feenix566 11-17-2004, 01:34 PM i got isolationist, but i'm not happy that they only give you four options for results. there is no option for libertarian. just because i think we should mind our own business doesn't mean i'm opposed to immigration and support trade policies to protect american workers.
while i definitely do want to protect american workers, i'm thinking that the "trade policies" they're talking about are not the way i would use to accomplish that goal.
