Oh ye of litte masculine plumbing. Try to have the integrity to
address such comments to the one you are speaking of.
And getting 32 out of 33 correct obviously leaves one higher
than you.
What amazes me is how badly some of you did. Which should not be
surprising, if you were well informed and intelligent you would
not be right wingers.
Of the first 10 number 4 was a bit heavy, the Lincoln Douglas
debates might be a bit esoteric for most. But how some are
unfamiliar with FDR's court packing scheme surprises me. It's
not like we studied it in detail, but we did cover it in high
school.
Other than that, the first 10 shoulda been gimmies.
Number 11 was also a bit understudied in school, but the right
wingers here have gone so far into claiming summit expertise in
the constitution that it should have been no problem.
Even those of you who are too young to remember it should have
gotten 12.
13 and 14 might have been hard, but you should have gotten them
by process of elimination if nothing else.
Hell, 15 and 16 cover subjects we have argued over here.
17 is recent history, was current events to some of us.
18 just required remembering why she got a dollar coin.
19 you should know if you ever discussed evolution, or saw
Inherit the Wind.
20 Bush has been all over all the time.
20 21 and 22 should have been gimmies also.
23 might be harder for you, but, again, for some of us that was
current events.
24 to 31 get into what I said was more economics than Civics, or
arguable. There you just tell them what you think they want to
hear. Though some of them were also obvious.
32 does cover something we have argued here, but expressed in a
way we don't normally discuss. However, Jeff B probably got
that, as it is something we have argued. Again, process of
elimination should give it to the rest of you.
33 is applied math and logic.
I don't see how you could do at all badly with that. Unless you
made your mistakes on the ones I said you gave them what they
wanted. Mind reading should not be requisite to good
citizenship.
