Questions


I have received this e-mail a hundred times, but it still makes me think. I thought I would share it with you.
Question One:
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?

Question Two:
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 8-10 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 been and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be our choice? Decide first… no peeking, then click below 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, huh? Makes a person think before judging someone.

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 fro 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.
