Left, right or center; do you hew to the straight and narrow for your bias, or entertain some ideas the opposing side would love?

Be it centrist, leaning left, leaning right or full-blown right-wing conservative or left-wing liberal; most of us can pick our spot out on a political map. But I don’t think I am that easy to classify. I’m sure most here who know me see me as decidedly liberal/progressive. On some things, I am. On some others, I am very libertarian or staunch conservative.

How do you compare with the general ideals of what a lib or con is supposed to “think”. Can you pass an ideological purity test; or are you like me, holding a decent size set of views that any ideological filter would try to remove from those supposedly “in your camp”?

If you do hold views that are distinctly foreign to most of your camp, what are they? What led you to strike out on your own on those particular issues?
