Well, to respond to the answer above me, to be "liberal" or "conservative" does not, per se, mean that one identifies with a certain party -- it means that one identifies with a certain political ideology.

Considering the issues you raised, it would sound like you are socially "moderate" -- liberal on some issues and conservative on others.

War in Iraq: Liberal
Feminism (assuming you are against): Conservative
Homosexuals (assuming you are against): Conservative
Drugs (again, assuming you are opposed to legalization: Conservative
Monolingualism (assuming opposed): Liberal

All of these issues are "Social" issues, which means that Socially, you are moderate. However, (with the potential exception of the Iraq War -- depends upon your reasons for being against) these issues to not address "Economic" issues.

Belief in equal opportunity for all -- Conservative
Belief in equal results for all -- Liberal

If you are like most people, you might say..."Well...depends." If so, you are also an economic moderate.

At the end of the day, try hard not to think of yourself as liberal or conservative, as it falsely informs your opinions on certain issues. Take each and every issue individually and play it against your own moral compass.

Then you won't be liberal or conservative or moderate or extreme -- you'll be American.

There's no way of knowing. Politics is never "black or white". It's a mistake to label someone ANYTHING- based solely on whether they're against the War, or for immigration reform, or against monolingualism, or for feminism- etc.,- etc.. It's a LOT more complicated than that. So be CAREFULL with those "Labels". -All TOO often, they DON'T fit. :)

It doesn't matter what party you identitify with. There are people who don't follow party lines in either party.
