Subject: RE: BS: Going to put y'all back in chains
Don't like the idea of an IQ test as a requirement for voting but would seriously consider a test where everyone gets to vote but a test on "facts" being part of the test and the tin-foilers votes not being counted...

I mean, questions like:

1. Where was Barak Obama born? (Pick just one)

    a. Kenya
    b. Mars
    c. Hawaii

2. Does global warming exist? (Pick just one)

    a. Yes
    b. No

3. Which of the following is NOT a branch of government? (Pick just one)

    a. Judicial
    b. Legislative
    c. NASCAR

Ya'll get it... I mean, 10 basic fact based questions and make 'um get 7 outta ten in order for the vote to be counted...

BTW, there are states where kids can opt out of fact based classes if they say that the information they would learn might be in conflict with their religious beliefs??? Man, that is some messed up thinking...
