Mitt is more authoritarian than Obama? Really? Obama is that far to the right?!?



We non-Americans have been saying it for years here, DS. US politics is far more right wing than the politics of most western liberal-democracies. Your lefties frequently do look like righties to us and we in the UK, for instance, have no major political presence that compares with your right-wing Republicans. In all I'd say, yep, Cameron and Obama are placed as I'd expect on that chart - ideological next-door neighbours.


I wonder whether Netanyahoo will be charmed to find himself in such close proximity to Bashar Al-Assad? Or vice versa?

Seeing as it's the Cotswolds, most of those villages probably already have dungeons, albeit *very* discreet ones.

Conveniently for me, I voted for Jill Stein who actually does represent my views. Interestingly, Romney, Obama (and Hitler) all occupy a WAY distant part of the chart. What's even more interesting to me is whether any significant number of Americans at all are actually somewhere in alignment with either Obama or Romney. That'd certainly explain the whole "lesser of two evils" and "voter apathy" thing.

Just in a different sense. Mitt would be more socially limiting and Obama more economically limiting.

He is not a true capitalist, he is a corporatist. Still wealth distribution, just in the wrong direction.

First line depends on in whose interest you are talking about.

Second line is incorrect as Mitt was an exemplary capitalist, they and the corporatist being financial soul mates and a marriage made in heaven of profits.
