How much do we know?

We have all heard the terms used by pundits to categorize us.
Liberals,Conservatives,Independents, Republicans, Democrats, Leftists, and so on and so on. But how much do we know about these groups? How do you tell the difference between a Liberal and a Conservative? How about the Democrats? What do you know about them?

We tend to want to find a political identity,but we are nearly always too misinformed to correctly identify ourselves or others.to prove this i dare you to ask a friend what the two basic principles of the GOP are. More than likely they will say something like... Anti-terrorism and family value or some other bogus claim. The GOP is really about small government and economic freedom (or some say something similar but the idea is the same). Today we seem to think that not even looking up the definition of the words we call ourselves is an okay thing to do. Now that is just plain stupid of us to do .imagine if no-one knew the definition of a moron and you hear a pundit call a politician you like a moron so you begin identifying your self as a moron.....which in that case would still be a good description.
