News Links Nostalgia

 Feeling a bit nostalgic for the old newslinks days.   Below is a bit of reading just for old times sake.  Pretty soon we can have fun with ballot initiatives.  I have heard there are some cooking on the burner that take cynical politics to a level that just beg for snark and sarcasm. 

A classic 23 question quiz designed to drop you into a political category.  As one that was categorized as Steadfast Conservative and in the 12% to the right of the chart.   I would have to say that there were very few "good" answers to pick from.
