Good for you! As a left-wing liberal wacko, I can’t resist dropping hints as to my own strange opinions here and there. And welcome the same from those who are preaching to a different choir!

I’ll tune it for the political posts. The conversation should be interesting especially with the election this year.

You’re a right-winger? And here I thought you fell in the middle. I must know some serious fascists.

so what do you think about McCain’s ‘reward’ idea (that I coincidentally enough just blogged about)? That definitely ties in both politics and $.

You’re doing the right thing by following your heart! But don’t label issues like free markets as “right-wing” values. Yes, the American left has largely forgotten importance of Liberty. But that doesn’t mean the pursuit of liberty is inherently a right-wing ideal!

Do you follow Walter Williams or Thomas Sowell’s columns? These economists are two of America’s greatest treasures. They have a desire and knack for explaining complicated economic issues in a way that anyone can understand, much like the late Milton Friedman.

I’ll be interested to read your political posts – I understand how many of us want to stay out of the political arena because of how completely crazy people can get when talking about politics.

At the same time, I find it interesting too, like plonkee and lynnae, and am ready to contribute to the political flame war!

Game on!

Yay, more stuff to disagree with you on.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that right-wingers are picked on, it’s more that just because someone agrees with you on personal finance, doesn’t mean that they’ll agree with you on everything else. If you think that most other pfbloggers are left-wing, I think that they are right-wing. I guess that means that the centre ground must be somewhere between us.

Yay! I’m something of a political junkie myself. I love to talk politics, and most of the time I try to keep it off my blog, but I have a political post going up tomorrow. You’re coming over to my blog to back me up, right?

I hate it when politics becomes inflammatory, but I love the discussion that politics provokes. Even if nobody changes their mind, it’s good for making me think.
