Got this in an email, thought it was pretty interesting...

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?

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.

ANSWERS
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.

Question 3

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.

All three, but especially the second, are prime examples of what happens when you call a chosen selection of information "the facts" and ignore everything else.

I agree, if my history is correct, hitler was only married for about a week before he died, so it really didn't give him much chance to cheat if he was confined to a bunker :P
