GUESS WHO'S WHO?

Jonah Goldberg has an article today quoting research from the Pew Center. Goldberg's main point is the "Europeanization" of certain elements of American society.

Here's a snippet. Guess who's who:

According to the Pew Center, the less you like to fly the American flag, the more likely it is you are Democrat. The more you think hard work and personal initiative aren’t the ticket to the good life, the more likely you are to be a Democrat. The more you believe the United Nations is a better steward of international relations, while America is a negative actor on the world stage, the more likely you are to be a Democrat. The more you believe that the government is there to help, the more likely it is you are Democrat. The less seriously you take religion, the more likely you are to be a Democrat. Flip all of these values around and the more likely it is you are a Republican — or that you vote that way.
Where is your flag? And is it European or American?
