2. The wording of some of the questions in this quiz are suspect
It's seems biased for Bush.

3. this is basically
a push poll.

"Do you personally agree or disagree that abortion amounts to the taking of a human life?"

someone can agree with that and be pro-choice. that question doesn't matter.

7. The very first question was skewed and wrong.
"Prisoners of War" are afforded rights, "enemy combatants" are not. I thought that was a trick question and was stumped.

9. LOL
"We assigned 1 point for "somewhat important"; 2 points for "important" and 3 points for "very important." Based on the answers you chose, you scored 4 points for President George W. Bush and 53 points for Senator John Kerry."


I just want to know what the 4 points * got were for... :puke:

14. 67 to 5
And I'm not even a Democrat. (I do just happen to think that filibusters are pointless.)

This question was problematic (emphasis added):

Question: 5

Currently, 36 states have laws that allow residents to qualify for a permit to carry a firearm to protect themselves if they pass a background check, if they participate in firearms training and pay a fee to cover administrative costs.
Individuals in these US states may obtain permits to carry concealed firearms, for whatever purpose they might dream up.

There's no requirement that they demonstrate that their purpose is to protect themselves, or that they disclose what their purpose in fact is, to my knowledge.

Others more sensitive to nuances of USAmerican politics might spot similar push-poll kinda things in the questions, I suspect.
