TWO TOUGH QUESTIONS AND A REALITY BITE

Question 1:

if you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already,
three who
were
deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had
syphilis,
would
you recommend that she have an abortion? Read the next question
before
looking at the answer for this one.

Question 2:

It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts.
Here are the facts about the three leading candidates.

Canidate A - Associates with crooked politicians, and consults
with
astrologists. He's had two Mistresses. He also chain smokes and
drinks 8
to
10 martinis a day.

Candidate B - He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until
noon, used
opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
Candidate C - He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian,
doesn't
smoke,
drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be your choice?

Decide first, no peeking, then scroll down for the answer.

Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Candidate B is Winston
Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.

And, by the way, the answer to the abortion question: If you said
yes, you
just killed Beethoven.

Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging
someone.

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than
500 employees and has the following statistics:
29 have been accused of spousal abuse 7 have been arrested for fraud
19 have been accused of writing bad checks
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2
businesses
3 have done time for assault
71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
8 have been arrested for shoplifting
21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess which organization this is? Give up yet?

It's the 535 members of the United States Congress

Although ive always been a fond believer in the phrase

"never judge a book by its cover"

I choose no for the abortion question because indeed abortion is illegal in this country.

I chose A for the election question because it sounded the most realistic, C (you thinking most people would choose it) gives the least information about their political side. Although all 3 don't give too much at all.

The last one didn't tickle my fancy though =/
