Cool, I passed, with flying colors:

You are a Reality-Based Intellectualist, also known as the liberal elite. You are a proud member of what’s known as the reality-based community, where science, reason, and non-Jesus-based thought reign supreme.

My conservative type:

You are an Anti-government Gunslinger, also known as a libertarian conservative. You believe in smaller government, states’ rights, gun rights, and that, as Reagan once said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, “I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”

Can’t argue with that.

Funny quiz, and pretty damn accurate too. My profile:

You are a New Left Hipster, also known as a MoveOn.org liberal, a Netroots activist, or a Daily Show fanatic. You believe that if we really want to defend American values, conservatives must be exposed, mocked, and assailed for every fanatical, puritanical, warmongering, Constitution-shredding ideal for which they stand.

I thought the way to win a fight with a liberal was to side step the issue entirely, question their patriotism &/or sexuality, call them an idiot several times and then refuse to address them any further.
