    Libertarian!!! (even if i don't spell it right)

    For the other libertarians on the board, check out www.boortz.com

    It's the website for talkshow host Neal Boortz, who is funny, insulting, educating, and right most of the time. Check it out!

    for me from my limited experiences in the coin game and from what i have seen most collectors lose their ass in coins

    some big time some not so big time some break even

    so for me there are really no conservative collectors

    if they were conservative they would not be buying coins!!!!!!!!

    I am a solid Republican from New York State and am good friends with a coin collecting liberal FDR/New Deal Democrat and a liberal Michael Dukakis Democrat and both are from Massachussets.

    The three of us drove together to and from last years fall Baltimore show and shared a big hotel room (separate beds, of course).

    We had a lot of laughs, talked coins and more coins and as soon as the discussion went to politics we went right back to coins! But we respect each other differing political views.

    We had a lot of fun! We will do again (but not this year!).

    Conservative and a couple college degrees. My wife is even more conservative and refuses to listen to NPR, calling it "liberal media propaganda". image

    ... This is covered in such inane drivel as "It takes a Village".

    Personally, I thought this was a statement that everyone would agree on. Conservative or Liberal, it DOES take more than the immediate family (extended family, social environment (and Conservatives have been big on socializing and conformity - see "good ol' boy network), watching out for your neighborhood and your neighbors kids. How can this be classified as "inane drivel?"

    Definitely conservative (on grading) when buying, and
    Thoroughly liberal (on grading) when buying.
    Buy the coin...but be sure to pay for it.

    I'm a "Left-Liberal.

    "Left-Liberals prefer self-government in personal matters and central decision-making on economics. They want government to serve the disadvantaged in the name of fairness. Leftists tolerate social diversity, but work for economic equality."
