COL Ted Mc
PO1 John Miller - PO; My view of the spectrum is that, if you divide the world's political spectrum into seven general categories "Far Left", "Left", "Center Left", "Center", "Center Right". "Right", and "Far Right" then divide each of those categories into " - ", "neutral", and "+" so that your scale now runs from "Far Left -" [equaling 1] to "Far Right +" [equaling 21]
the Democrats probably come in around "14" to "15" ("Center Right") and
the Republicans probably come in around "16" to "17" ("Right") with
the T.E.A. Party probably coming in around "17" to "18" ("Right" [but a bit more so]) and
the "Libertarians" probably coming in around "12" to "13" (on the "Center" - "Center Right" border).
The vast majority of world politics is probably in the "7" ("Center Left") to "15" ("Center Right) range.

COL Ted Mc so I'm center right in other words. Yeah, that's pretty much what all those political quizzes tell me.

PO1 John Miller - PO; "12" would be on the "Rightside of Center" and "13" would be on the "Leftside of Center Right".
Call it "Conservative Mainstream" and you aren't going to be too far off the mark.

"This isn't just Indians, it's the whole planet. We're all connected. What we're made of here goes clear to the end of this universe," Fielder says.

I am also against fracking. It is my personal opinion that our countries focus should be in preserving what natural habitats are left and to stop selling off land to corporations to make a profit from. I feel we need to replace trees removed and build back up our forests. I believe hemp should be made legal because of all the products the plant can produce. I am against hunting for sport. I believe that if we take care of nature instead of taking it for granted we will be preserving the future for generations to come. Our time is over and we must lay a path for future generations. I was raised christian and spent time with the Native America. As a christian we are raised with the knowledge that god gave us the earth and we are its masters. This belief is what allows us to ignore the needs of our home because we feel its our right to take from it as we wish. Yet in the end we are the caretakers of earth, and it was given to us on loan by the creator. I can tell you this if I rented a home to some one and they gutted it for personal gain I would be a little pissed. Well as humans we are gutting the home god gave us. At what cost is destroying the future home for future generations is anything worth? At what point will we need to be at before we a humans wake up to the fact that we are killing the earth faster than it can fix itself? When will we figure out that money is not more valuable than survival? So looking at what keystone is saying do we agree with the economic boost it may or may not give temporarily to this generation or two? Or do we weigh in on possible future damage to the earth that will be felt for generations? Their is nothing worth more than the safety and survival of my future generations. My children and generations to come deserve a home that is not a hollow shell of what it used to be. We are much more advanced scientifically then generations ago. We can make car engines that run on water, obtain energy from the sun and wind. Yet we continue to poison our earth because people with money control our government. We the people listen to what is being said. Yet our new generation see the damage of what is being done to the earth and are asking that we stop. Yet those of older generations deny the requests. Then deny scientific proof of the long term effect of damage being done. So yes I support the native Americans request to honor the earth and not poison it. Call it what you will. But this is were I stand on the keystone, and that is it should not be allowed to be built.

SGT Nathan Huff, it is clear that you have looked into your beliefs and hold them sincerely. I see it quite differently; we will just have to agree to disagree.
Thanks for your input.
