Putting labels on people is so counter-productive. Most of us on some issues could be considered conservative, on other issues could be considered progressive, on other issues might be thought of as being moderate, on other issues might be thought of as being rather forthright.

You try turning up in America without documents, without a visa, without a passport; you'll be treated as very, very much illegal.

I have close family members as well as lots of close friends who are gay. Many of them strongly support gay marriage.
