Political litmuses are stupid.

I've had people try to label me as far right, a few times far left, and something nefarious. Dear stupid people, if a label is applicable to a person it's because of weight and preponderance, not whether or not the person agrees with everything you say no matter how idiotic. That means you compare the number of contentions commonly associated with the left to those of the right. It's actually logical that way. Besides, few people are purists, and those that are tend to be ding bats.
