I found this somewhere don't know who wrote it but wanted to share it with you.

This is rather interesting, ummmmmmm!

This one is a little different, but still meant to make a person think,
but in a different way then the other note.

Question 1:

If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who
were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had
syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion?

Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.

Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here
are the facts about the three candidates.

Candidate A.

Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist.
He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10
martinis a day.

Candidate B.

He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in
college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C.

He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an
occasional beer and never cheated on his wife. Which of these candidates
would be your choice? Decide first... no peeking, then scroll down for
the
response.







Answers

Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.


And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said
- YES, you just killed Beethoven.

Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging
someone.

Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading...

Never be afraid to try something new.
Remember: Amateurs...built the ark.
Professionals...built the Titanic

And Finally, can you imagine working for a company that has a little
more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

*29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year...

Can you guess which organization this is?

Give up yet?
It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group
that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest
of us in line.

Actually i recently watched a documentary on Hitler and going on the notes that his personal physician kept Hitler had syphillis, was a drug addict, and had parkinsons disease. Now while having parkinsons disease probably wouldn't have swayed peoples confidence in him he had enough paranoia that once the shakes set in he was careful to hide the hand that shook the most. I'd have to say that in the op only a few aspects about each candidate was on there while others, while known, were deliberately kept off...yep, sounds like politics lol.
