Let's talk about things uber!

I have good reason to ask. This morning I was accused (or maybe I was being complimented? ) of being an uber-liberal on an A2K thread! This, after trying to explain to the poster involved that I didn't reside in the US therefore was not a "liberal" in the poster's sense of the word.
But anyway ....

I really want to know what it means to be uber-anything! I've seen the term, but was not really clear (or cool enough?) to understand it's implications.

So I did a Google search. And amongst other things, discovered a discussion on the use of the word. This was one of the posts:

dude i use that word all the time, it means like super or extra awesome or likethat, as in "dude that pizza was uber tasty" and "whoa, that was some sick uber air you caught dog"

That wasn't much help.

So dear A2Kers, especially the cool ones who understand these things, please talk about what uber means to you.

How do you use uber yourself, in your everyday discources with other folk?

For example, what are your most uber qualities? Hmmmm...?

Politically, how should one enterpret uber when attached to a label like liberal, conservationist, conservative, communist, etc, etc, etc ...

Hey, you can say any old uber thing you like, so long as I get the gist!
