Good graphic
I eschew the false dichotomy of Liberal/Conservative.
Further, I eschew the trichotomy of Liberalism/Conservatism/Libertarianism.
I eschew all isms.
Isms are bad.
Except organism. It's OK.
I think you must be my 38 year old daughter.
You eschew plenty.
Remember, William Safire advises to always eschew obfuscation. Here are some more of his rules:
WILLIAM SAFIRE'S RULES FOR WRITING
1) Remember to never split an infinitive.
2) The passive voice should never be used.
3) Do not put statements in the negative form.
4) A verb has to agree with their subjects.
5) Proofread carefully to see if you words out.
6) If you reread your work, you can find on rereading a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing.
7) A writer must not shift your point of view.
8) And don't start a sentence with a conjunction.
9) Remember, too, a preposition is a terrible word to end a sentence with.
10) Don't overuse exclamation marks !!!!!!!!!
11) Place pronouns as close as possible, especially in long sentences, as of ten or more words, to their antecedents.
12) Writing carefully, dangling participles must be avoided.
13) If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is.
14) Take the bull by the hand and avoid mixing metaphors.
15) Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky.
16) Everyone should be careful to use a singular pronoun with singular nouns in their writing.
17) Always pick on the correct idiom.
18) The adverb always follows the verb.
19) Eschew obfuscation.
20) Last, but not least, avoid cliches like the plague; seek viable alternatives.
Your 38 year old daughter, huh? That must make you, what, 54?
Give me a hint... Is your face longer than a Buick bumper?
You can reach my parents at their places of business...

How do you upload pictures to FR like that?
You're the guy that posted this to the "Activism" sidebar.
Try 64.
A good question! Here is the answer.
Since I've spent the time to type RTFM, I'll post the solution too (enclose the following statement with "<" on the left and ">" on the right, and substitute the XX's with the actual dimensions of the image):
IMG HEIGHT=xx WIDTH=xx SRC="http:\\www.xxx.blablalba"
It's considered extremely polite to use the height/width parameters (the two XX's being numeral pixal values) whenever you post an HTML image. To find these values, right click on the image and check the dimensions value. When one uses the height/width parameters of an HTML IMG statement, a users browser will display an empty box with a black line border in the browser until the image is downloaded. The user can then decide if they wish to wait for a 967 billion Meg picture to download or not. Unless one is always on-line, you shouldn't make an HTML IMG link to ones HDD
I hope that helps.
