Missed the “decreasing taxes and increasing spending”

I said decrease both taxes and spending which is more logical but I’m nothing but a voter.

I got 36 out of 33 correct! I got the three bonus questions right.

President Obama was born in Hawaii? True or False

No way you got that one right. He wasn't born. He was created by Soros.

I just wish all voters could pass a basic literacy test.

Freepers, myself included, are mortally embarrassed to have gotten 2 or 3 "wrong." However, on average, our fellow voters got MORE THAN HALF of the answers "wrong." On average, college "educators" missed 45% of the answers ... an "F" in anybody's book.

Voilà, nous avons Obama!
