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, 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.

Never be afraid to try something new.

Remember:

Amateurs built the Ark

Professionals built the Titanic



and in case you never saw this one..! ....

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 of idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

You gotta pass this on! It's crazy isn't it?

        and how about the 500,000 more mothers who claim to have similar conditions, which may or may not be true? and how about people having more and more babies because they don't have any sense of self-control? are we solving the problem, or allieviating it?

        I don't eat meat or go to church. What am I compensating for? I am over-compensating for a valued body and a creative and imaginative spirit that requires no hand holding. I am compensating for a mind that rejects the likes of Mcdonald's. I am over compensating for the multitudes of Americans that don't realize that we could feed the hungry humans of the world 10 times over if we'd stop feeding those ugly, stinking cows and pigs. What are you guys compensating for?

        "i never trust people that dont eat meat"

        i stopped eating red meat after the mad cow disease scare here. well ok technically i stopped eating it after seeing bush with his fucking annoying smirk eating beef after the scare saying everything was fine.

          You dont eat meat because GWB does it? I spose you dont go to the doctor for regular checkups because gwb does it too?

          Why should anyone trust someone who uses logic like that?

          And you wonder why we dont trust people who dont eat meat.

            you completely missed the point of the post. *sigh*

            - confirmed cow in the u.s. with mad cow
            - bush who lies often, stuffs his face with beef saying it's all good
            - me worrying

            too much red meat can't be good for you, and basically i felt pretty worn down, so i stopped eating it. but bush's actions fueled the fire afterwards whenever i'd think about how good that burger on the neighbor's bbq smelled.

            read and comprehend.

              Yeah but mad cow was never a *real* threat in the us.

              Humans dont actually catch "mad cow". They catch some wack ass disease that cannibals get from eating other humans, which somehow you have the extremely slim chance of catching if you eat a cow with mad cow disease.

              Pass that hamburger.

                Look into how many testing supplies and kits are sold for mad cow disease in north america and you will learn that it is a threat and they are testing and covering it up left and right!

                Read about the disease so you are informed.....

                If they claim one case was doccumented, how many went unnoticed and left untreated? How many were covered up? Try and think what reasons they would have for covering it up? (enormous beef industry for one)

                Eat all the burgers you want to, I still have red meat once or twice a week, but rarely ground beef, thats the nastiest parts of the cow, and where mad cow disease is more likely to be a threat. But to say mad cow disease "was never a *real* threat in the us", you must be a cattle farmer or bush with your head up your ass to think we are immune to this disease. That is like saying you can only get aids if you live in Africa. Wake up!

    Ummm. Devil's Plaything, where did you get the congressional list? Although I believe that a lot of it might be true, uhh.. I gotta take issue with the 84 members arrested in the past year for drunk driving. Have a REALLY hard time believing that one. If almost 1 out of every 6 current members of congress had been arrested this past year, I think we would have heard of at least 30 or 40 of them on some news site somewhere in the world. I follow many of the liberal and conservative newsites all pretty closely and can honestly say that if a member of either political party had been arrested for something, it would at least make the internet sites of the oppositional media/political parties (if not the bigger media outlets). Especially if every single one of them was arrested for the same thing. The rest of the list looks believable enough to me. Not trying to be confrontational, but would like to know where the drunk driving arrest info comes from if you know. Please clarify it for me. Thanks.

      good point. ya know when you're pulled over you're technically under arrest until you sign the ticket and the officer tells you that you're free to go.

      i like the one where it says some of them have been arrested for assault. it gives a good idea of the type of people we're electing. i too wonder if this depiction is accurate.

        Hey Fruv and Alan,

        It was passed onto me by yet another tribester. Just thought it was interesting and wanted to share it with you kats and kittens. Sorry I didn't verify that at the beginning.

        All the best!

    All of the information you've presented I've seen in at least 6 different e-mails which calls into question how accurate this data actually is. Now will I go over to snopes.com and check the facts on those statements, probably not. However I will note that the "data" on Congress has been generated from an e-mail that dates back to 1999 when it showed up in my mail-box. I'm guessing the DUI records will become public record on the same day I finally get that check from Bill Gates for forwarding that Microsoft settlement e-mail.

      Hey Cherie, you didn't get your check yet? I got mine a few months ago. I am now fabulously and independently wealthy and all thanks to Bill Gates and his special e-mail beta testing. You should contact him and find out where your check is. Maybe they have your address wrong or something?

      I also got my check from AOL Time Warner too. E-mail beta testing rocks.

        Damn! I'm always a day late and a buck short..... Now you owe me a beer Mr. Independently wealthy! So how long do these streams of babble go on for? I'm shall we say a "virgin" triber in the sense that I don't have a lot of tribes/contacts to ramble on with....Oh and are we supposed to stay on topic?

          Cherie, I'd by you a beer, even if I was my former poor and pathetic self. But since I received over $5,000,000 for forwarding that Microsoft beta e-mail, I no longer have to worry about that. Hell, now I can afford to buy you a martini or something.

          And don't worry about going off topic. If anyone gets pissed about it, they'll let you know.
