1. I didn't get a choice on the last question.
I guess Tavis Smiley and Tyler Perry don't suck.

2. I got stuck at the last blue box on the bottom right.
I'm not really familiar with Tavis Smiley or Tyler Perry, so I answered no to that question. I don't pretend to like them (I have no opinion, pretend or otherwise), and I have no idea if they suck. So my answer to "Are you just saying that because NPR told you to?" is "No", but the only choice is "Yes".

3. both the "Are you just saying that because ___ told you to?" questions
have only one option


Is this supposed to be part of the joke?



Everyone who watches FOX or NPR do what they say no matter what?

11. It's a joke, but there's certainly more truth than not in those suppositions. (NT)

9. really, really lame.

Just not funny, unless your an extremist, a bigot, a hypocrite, or simply a little slow. The stereotypes that this relies on are so simplistic that not many thinking people would feel amused in the slightest. Rich, white, gun owning, closeted, religious, Fox news watchers vote republican. Poor, black, atheist, welfare receiving, country music hating, gun-free NPR listening people who aren't Alan Keyes vote democratic. Fail.

12. You're right, and you took it farther than I did (below.)
It's not that it was illogical, it's that the stereotypes they used were so unclever.

This I add as my idea of a funny flow chart:

What Would Richard Feynman Do? (For youngsters.)

10. If you own a gun, your fate is sealed.
If it's a program, it's got some logical errors. Kind of kills the jokes, such as they may be. To point out that the shapes are wrong would be nitpicky, so I wouldn't do that.

13. This is HUMOR, folks.
It is NOT a real Voter's Guide.

It is from HolyTaco,
and it is FUNNY.

Sit back,
lighten up,
and LAUGH.
