more than anything, i'm interested with peoples behavior... where everyone loves to fall in line squarely behind one side and accuse the other of the same narrow minded, short sighted and wrong headed thinking as they act in the same exact way as those they criticize.
i'm not going to get into a long drawn about debate about partisan positions and their merits or lack thereof. for the most part, i would say i'm a social and fiscal conservative... and Bush is neither. McCain is neither. Obama is at the far end of the spectrum.
the pendulum is swinging, my man... everyone can argue all they want, circle the wagons, pat each other on the back, laugh at each others dumb remarks and "sheeple" comments and continue to blame the other side for anything and everything while ignoring the other 50% of the facts... and... at the end of the day, the pendulum will still continue to swing.. back and forth.

I agree that none of the guys are fiscal conservatives, but disagree on the social side. Bush has been staunchly socially conservative by opposing gay marriage, stem cell research and abortion. He supports prayer in school and the teaching of creationism in the classroom. McCain has touted many of these same principles himself on the campaign trail.
And how are you socially conservative yet work in porn. It seems like a contradiction. One of the main points behind social conservatism is public morality which you would seem to not fall under based on your choice of profession.
