Candidate Match Game

sure, USA Today is a rag... but this was kind of fun:
Candidate Match Game

My results were:
  1. Ron Paul
  2. Hilary Clinton
  3. Fred Thompson
I would have been even closer on Ron Paul, but I think that getting out of Iraq ASAP is a terrible goal. We never should have gone. But the dickhead in the White House fucked up (again), so now we've got to try to fix his mistake. Not just run from it.
I also disagree with him about immigration. The only thing I like about bush is his stance on immigration. I think that it's important to allow workers clear, easy, legal paths to come into this country. Building fences is stupid. Beefing up security at the border... well, maybe that will solve other problems, but keeping people out who want to work does not make sense. Let them in, make it legal, and through its legality allow everyone to benefit. (If they are legal workers, their wages can be taxed like everyone else, and they can contribute to society instead of leach off of it.
I still think I'd prefer Obama to Hilary. She's just... creepy. I've got to look into that some more, I guess.

Creepy? Oh, man. Granted I'm not completely hundred percent for Hillary but I think she gets a raw deal. --Judith
