In US even left foot looks politcally suspicious. {g}

Srdjan, there are certainly those in the United States who get worked up merely for the left being "the left".

I look at issues from the standpoint of whether the govt is protecting freedoms or interfering in lives. That is my fundamental criteria.

There are specific issues where I agree with many from the "left" - I think politics and religion shouldn't be mixed AT ALL, I disagree with any laws that would prohibit abortion, and I'm a firm believer in the first Amendment and the PRACTICE of a color-blind society. Ironically, some of the worst inconsistencies across these issues comes from members of the "left".
