The ones that amuse me are the ones whose leans are glaringly different from what they claim. I have to think they're either lying or in denial. Pretty much everybody knows, except them, it seems.

Yeah I have seen a couple get called out on that. I didn't notice the lean until it was brought up.

Don't sweat those. At least half the membership are just sh***ing you with their lean. I can't actually remember what I'm showing at the moment. I will as soon as I click the 'Post Quick Reply' button.

Click.

Edit: Oh, apparently I'm undisclosed at the moment. Meh!

I don't let it bother me. If we are having a good conversation, I really don't care what side of the fence they are from. If they are being an ass I just stop talking with them.

Just in case you forgot, you are listed as undisclosed! lol

I can name 3 people right now whose leans say "conservative" and are anything but. However, I don't know if it's within the rules to do so upstairs.

With a lean as vague as 'conservative', they could be. It depends a lot on your definition of 'conservative' doesn't it? Osama Bin Laden, Fred Phelps, Binyamin Netanyahu, Angela Merkel and Arnold Schwarzenegger are conservatives of a certain hue, are they not?

Yes, but I'm talking about guys upstairs who quote and link DailyKOS, are trying to legalize everything, making fiscally liberal suggestions, and think anti-abortionists are pure evil.

Not borderline stuff - I'm talking full-blown liberal stuff.

Well, that just tells you not to take any notice of 'lean', doesn't it?
