    A Test: Have You Been Watching Too Much TV

    I've been discovering some astounding things about how short people's news memory can be. Here's a quick test to see if you might be getting suckered by the mainstream media.

    1) After the 9/11 attacks, how long did the United States wait before going to war.
    a. A year and a half
    b. Less than one month
    c. Faster than an SUV guzzles oil

    2) Following the 9/11 attacks, the United States went to war in what country?
    a. Iraq
    b. Afghanistan
    c. Vietnam

    3) Who does the Bush administration blame for 9/11?
    a. Saddam Hussein
    b. Osama Bin Laden
    c. Halliburton

    4) An Afghan is:
    a. A blanket.
    b. A person who comes from Afghanistan, like the little green-eyed girl in National Geographic.
    c. French for 'quagmire'.

    5) Tora Bora is:
    a. A hip hop group. Or, maybe that film about Pearl Harbor.
    b. A mountainous region of Afghanistan, known to house a cavernous network of terrorist hideouts.
    c. A Bush crony.

    If you answered 'a' to any question, you've been duped. The good news is, you're not alone. Sadly, I've talked to a number of people that don't remember the war that wiped out the Taliban.

    If you answered 'c' to any question, you're so hopelessly lost in liberal propaganda that you're only identifying bullet points. I pity you.

    3 Amendments:

    4)An Afghan is:
    d. A canine that has been highly overbred and dumbed down for the personal profit of evil humans.

    That can substitute for answer C. It's just as nutty.
