Going over the study... a lot of the questions asked... aren't really "true or false" things.

Like "Did the stimulus legislation gain or lose jobs".

Furthermore, pretty much ALL of the questions are democratically biased... as in few are questions Liberals would get wrong.

 

I find in intersting that 44% of the country isn't sure Obama was born in the US according to their report as well.  That's much higher then I remember that number being, which brings up sampling issues.

Alright, so what kind of questions would you ask?

Stuff like "Did Sarah Palin say she could see Russia from her house.", "Were their WMD's found in Iraq", 

stuff like that.   "Did Ron Paul say that he thought segregation should be put back into place" would be another good one.

Hmm fair enough, counter it with left-wing talking points. I am curious, however, to see how you would answer the WMD question.

wow thanks for posting that

You know the funniest thing about Wikileaks in general (imho) is that it wouldn't be a big deal if the government didn't seem to think they have to lie to us about all sorts of things in our lives.  I really fail to understand why some of this information hasn't been given to us anyways.
