I have to say, I'm a little bit pissed-off by this quiz. I started taking it, and then realized how blatantly biased it is, bordering on hostile. (Yay, aliteration!) I can take a joke, and there are times where laughing at my own political flaws becomes almost a pasttime for me, but... This crosses a line.
Who are the "Foreign Leaders" that Kerry claims to have the support of?
Iran, Osama, North Korea
France, Germany, Russia
Spain, Poland, Sweden
Clinton, Daschle, Pelosi?
How much of their income should "rich" people pay in taxes?
The same as everyone else, because they earned it the same as everyone else.
Maybe a little bit more than the average citizen, because they obviously benefited from living in this great country.
Twice the average rate, because I hate rich people (Other than myself, that is).
90%, I think "rich people" are what is wrong with America.
Yeah...
P.S. I think the reason I have such a problem with this quiz is that it is a "liberality" test, aimed at liberals (and FIRE). If it were a "conservativity" test, aimed at conservatives, I'd probably be more-or-less fine with it.
