Are You a Liberal? True/False
Have you ever wondered if you're really a liberal? Well, wonder no more! Just take this nifty little true/false quiz and all will be revealed!
enjoy!
1. Bush was selected, not elected...like Hitler!
2. Criminals are victims too...well unless, they steal my old Joan Baez tracks. Do you know how hard it was to get those? I'd like to kill that guy!
3. Loving America means talking about what's wrong with it incessantly and downplaying all the good things it does.
4. Howard Dean would be another great president...like Jimmy Carter!
5. Jesse Jackson is the greatest living African-American other than the first black President, Bill Clinton.
6. The French are our real allies because they love us enough to undercut our policies at every turn so we won't make any mistakes.
7. Mumia Abu-Jamal is innocent, George W. Bush is guilty!
8. I support immigration laws as long as they're not enforced!
9. Discrimination against minorities is no longer acceptable in America...unless they happen to be conservative judges waiting for confirmation from the Senate.
10. Using military force to liberate Iraq & set up a Democracy in Iraq is not justifiable on humanitarian grounds because the UN didn't approve. On the other hand, using military force to liberate Kosovo was justifiable on humanitarian grounds even though the UN didn't approve.
11. Conservatives want to pollute the environment because they love drinking dirty water and breathing filthy air.
12. Bush knew about 9/11 before it happened....yes, I'm serious! It's true, it really is...I saw it on an internet site right beside of a story about lizard people who rule the earth.
13. We should give the UN Security Council a veto over whether we use our military or not because China, France, & Russia are looking out for our best interests!
14. Jim Crow laws were a bad thing because they discriminated against people based on race and Affirmative Action is a good thing because it discriminates against people based on race.

Well, before the beatniks get their panties in a knot, affirmative action, while meaning well, does discriminate based on race. And no, it is not fair by any means. Try improving the grade school and high school educational systems in the inner cities first before catapulting unprepared kids into higher education. There I said it. And now for the unfair advantage argument...

Huh! I would have expected to score fairly high on a test of liberalism, but the only one I think might be true is Mumia vs. the Shrub. Maybe this isn't really a very good test....

1. Bush was selected, not elected...like Hitler!
Yes.
2. Criminals are victims too...well unless, they steal my old Joan Baez tracks. Do you know how hard it was to get those? I'd like to kill that guy!
False. All criminals are victims, even ones who steal my mp3 harddrive.
3. Loving America means talking about what's wrong with it incessantly and downplaying all the good things it does.
False. I don't downplay the good things it does. I always have a kind word for NASA.
4. Howard Dean would be another great president...like Jimmy Carter!
False. Dean's too conservative.
5. Jesse Jackson is the greatest living African-American other than the first black President, Bill Clinton.
False, but I'd vote for him.
6. The French are our real allies because they love us enough to undercut our policies at every turn so we won't make any mistakes.
True.
7. Mumia Abu-Jamal is innocent, George W. Bush is guilty!
Dunno about Mumia, but George is extremely guilty. Let's say true.
8. I support immigration laws as long as they're not enforced!
False. I don't support immigration laws.
9. Discrimination against minorities is no longer acceptable in America...unless they happen to be conservative judges waiting for confirmation from the Senate.
I don't understand the reference. False. No disrimination is acceptable.
10. Using military force to liberate Iraq & set up a Democracy in Iraq is not justifiable on humanitarian grounds because the UN didn't approve. On the other hand, using military force to liberate Kosovo was justifiable on humanitarian grounds even though the UN didn't approve.
False. Set up a democracy first and then we'll talk. It's not justifiable on humanitarian grounds for reasons other than UN approval.
11. Conservatives want to pollute the environment because they love drinking dirty water and breathing filthy air.
True.
12. Bush knew about 9/11 before it happened....yes, I'm serious! It's true, it really is...I saw it on an internet site right beside of a story about lizard people who rule the earth.
True, but I thought of it myself.
13. We should give the UN Security Council a veto over whether we use our military or not because China, France, & Russia are looking out for our best interests!
False. Uhm, it isn't yours to give or take a way.
14. Jim Crow laws were a bad thing because they discriminated against people based on race and Affirmative Action is a good thing because it discriminates against people based on race.
True AND (False LeadsTo True) == True AND False == False.
Aaaw, I'm only 5/14 liberal. Dammit.

Of course, Bush was selected rather than elected. Didn't mean to imply disagreement with that one, it's a slam dunk. But I'm not well enough informed about Nazi history to know whether or not that's like Hitler.

Dang it 1 true.
'Course Bush was selected. But then again so is every president via the electoral college. Guess that means every President we've ever had is Hitleresque.
13/14

This really isn't funny at all. It just reinforces every stereotype of conservatives being out of touch old white men.

Hold it right there buddy -- it looks like President Bush is also set with this attitude with a new proposal in legalizing illegal immigrants.
