Extremely liberal Democrat. I fully support Pres. Clinton, and I personally support all attempts to investigate and impeach Donald Trump and Brett Kavanaugh.
As a political label, I don't know what "conservative" even means anymore. I don't think it means anything.
The political stuff mostly baffles me. Until fairly recently, there's usually been very little difference between Democrats and Republicans on issues that actually matter. You had your choice of Same Old Nonsense (D) and Same Old Nonsense (R). And we all know why that is but nobody dares say so out loud, least of all here on CF.
I guess my politics is that I'm pro-family. Anything that threatens the viability of the nuclear family needs to be rearranged. Broadly left-of-center economic policies, very conservative social policies and generally libertarian on foreign policies. No idea what ideological label gets put on that but that's what I believe in.
As a Catholic, I don't seem to fit into any one category. I'm some where in between all of that stuff. I'm not liberal, I'm not conservative. I'm somewhat traditional, but not a traditionalist. I'm not conservative or liberal ... I'm in between... I think that is part of being Catholic... we don't fit into a stereotypical category. All are welcomed. All are loved. All life is precious. Anyway, I use to post here a while back, but it's been a while and it would be nice to feel welcomed here. I'm searching.. I feel a bit lost, not with my faith, but in other ways. I'm okay... just would like to be around some positive people with kindness in their way of expression and heart. I'm Debbie.. and my beloved Bob (Newman99) passed away some years ago.. and well, anyway... hi.. I'll just read through the threads. thanks.

I guess I would catogorize myself as a pro-life liberal. I am against abortion in all it's forms except under condition of imminent threat to the mother's life, which I see more as self-defense than murder. I still have not decided on gay marriage. I don't see why a gay civil union can't be redefined to afford the same protections under the law as a marriage.
