    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 ********, and she had
    syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?




    Read the next question before looking at the response 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 candidates. Who would you vote for?


    Candidate A.

    Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist.
    He's had two mistresses. He also c hain 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..


    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 StatesCongress.
    The same group that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to
    keep the rest of us in line.

    Wow!
    I killed Ludwig, voted for Adolph, but to my credit I knew the last was the US Senate and House of Representatives.

    Good post #1, very thought provoking.

    You make Hitler sound like a hero....I hope that wasn't your intention. Oh yeah...your intention was to make a person think before judging. Hmm...Hitler....still don't like him, but thanks for the interesting trivia.

    Don't shoot the messenger. I've seen the riddles before and that is the way it is written- claiming Hitler was a war hero. Prior to WWII, Hitler did receive a medal for being wounded in WWI- which explains the hero crap Unfortunately, the wound was not a fatal one

    Mrs.donato, I agree with you. Hitler isn't up there on my list of heroes. But like BlackLatino stated, like it or not, those are the facts.
