2 TOUGH QUESTIONS..... 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 response for this one. Q2: It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates. Who would you vote for? Candidate A. Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist. 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 our choice? Decide first... no peeking, then scroll down for the response. ------------------------------------------------ Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Candidate B is Winston Churchill. Candidate C is Adolph Hitler. And, by the way, on your 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. Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading.. Never be afraid to try something new. Remember: Amateurs...built the ark. Professionals...built the Titanic And Finally, 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. The same group that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.
that one about congress is interesting indeed and something i'd like to possibly put in a paper.... links to factually back this up? 1st question: i'm not the woman so i won't pretend i can make her decisions for her
Sorry, I don't have any links to back it up as I found it on another forum. If I wasn't studying for finals right now I'd look for information to back it up.
naw it's all good bro, but that's fucking cool (perhaps cool is the wrong word) as shit if all that's true (about the congress)
ok, well that was easy enough... you've gotta go a bit deeper than that it turns out http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/outrage/congress.htm turns out it's not exactly substantiated
Do you know who Eva Brown is? Hitler cheated on his wife. And I can't say I'd pick a global leader based on a few facts.
I actually got an email similar to this not to long ago. 1 im not a female I cant decided what she needs to do 2 I didnt choose any of them, not one said they approved of pot 3 somehow im not surprised.
Good find but ipack's link basically shut down the thing about congress, not saying that it didn't have somewhat of an affect. Still nice find
i hate when people say abortion isn't a mans issue -we're not female so we have no say in abortion - BULLSHIT
I won't speak for potstylz, but i wasn't speaking about the abortion issue in general. This question was asked in a specific context. I was simply saying that it's my opinion that the woman should make her own decision on the abortion taking into account all aspects of her life. don't try to make this into something it's not there guy
I would assume, from how the question was phrased, that the woman was asking for your advice. But then again, I guess you could just be butting in. I would have voted for C if I was brought into a room, told this information and was only allowed to base my choice for world leader on those facts and nothing more. Had I been able to interact and question these potential leaders however, I would have elected the first guy to strangle Hitler. (me). And although FDR and Churchill never commited mass genoicde (or did they...) that doesn't really make them good leaders. Not saying they weren't... Well, I'm not saying Churchill wasn't at any rate. Cool find.
