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:
Candidate 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, usually sleeps until noon,
used opium in college, smokes, and drinks a quart of whiskey
every evening.
Candidate C
He was 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 was your choice?
Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.
And, by the way, the answer to the question one. If
you said yes, you just killed Ludwig van Beethoven. Interesting,
isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone.
Finally, consider this one.
Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more
than 500 employees and has the following statistics:
29 had been accused of spousal abuse
7 had been arrested for fraud
19 had been accused of writing bad checks
117 had directly or indirectly bankrupted businesses
3 had done jail time for assault
71 could not get a credit card due to bad credit
14 had been arrested on drug-related charges
8 had been arrested for shoplifting
21 were defendants in lawsuits
84 had been arrested for drunk driving in the last year
Can you guess which organization this is?
It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same
group of idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year
designed to keep the rest of us honest.
