    Evolving Politically?

    Anyone else on the board feel that they're political views are evolving a bit? Like say, a liberal who feels like they're starting to move a bit more to the center? Or a conservative who is starting the fall a little leftwards? And not because of this message board, but in general?

    Or have most of you hunkered down into your particular political views?

    I used to be for the draft, totally anti abortion, pro welfare, and now Im on the opposite side of these issues.

    I grew up a republican but have become a moderate democrat...mostly on the day we went into iraq...I think the message board has mostly hard left or hard rights, though.

    You shouldn't base your political party affiliation on Iraq.

    Don't hold it against Conservatives... hold it against the PNAC/APAIC Neocons that hijacked the conservatives and re-defined them. True conservatives are a lost breed.

    Anyone can base their politics on anything. Very likely Iraq wasn't the only thing, but one of the pieces. I'm moving to the center on various issues...piece by piece, not all at once.

    Did the new greed-stricken Congress have anything to do with that?

    You can base your political positions on whatever you want, Im not saying you can't Im saying you shouldnt.

    Also, liberals have gotten the U.S. into plenty of idiotic conflicts.

    Re: Evolving Politically?

    I'd say they have. I went from a political philosophy lacking a premise (a statist mix between conservatism and socialism) to a political philosophy built entirely on a premise.
