Just so readers know, as part of our efforts to keep spammers and attackers from shutting down the site, you’ll be prompted to answer a different question before posting a comment. Those of you who reflexively type “orange” will run into trouble — it’s a simple math question. (Mrs. Carpetbagger is keeping it to addition, so the answer should be obvious.)
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Are you implying that conservatives can’t do simple addition? :->
hmmmm…a math question. Where’s the hint page? 😉
Crap. I’m going to have to add after a few (12) nerve-calming drinks this evening?
Who wants wings and beer?
Answer: Number of Democratic Senators from Missouri.
Whoa, you’re randomizing the question? I can’t see 15 democrats being elected to the senate from missouri (and here I thought my answer was so clever).
Oi, no fair. Now I’ll have to change my name each time I post.
Or not.
Thanks to Ms. CB for having mercy on those of us who received a Liberal Arts (ie math free) college education.
A good “test” would have been to force everyone to swear an oath of fealty AGAINST the Republican Party….
I can’t help but think of Monty Python here.
“What is your favorite color?”
“Orange… no… 4…. aaaaahiiihaaaahhhhhhhhhh!”
My mom only let me play with imaginary numbers, like the Republicans do.
Hmmm. Mr. CB refers to her as Mrs. and Ms Cb refers to herself as Ms. 🙂
re short fuse: “nine and a half”
but i didn’t expect some kind of spanish inquisition…
To all of you who cannot answer correctly: Go directly to Iraq.
Oh, this should be fun.
How about the number of Democratic Senators in Connecticut?
And, in honor of Monty Python, I believe that the answer should always be: THREE, SIR!
“First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.”
Right. One… two… five!
THREE, SIR!
I’d have recommended “Who’s the worst president in the history of the US?” Think of it as a troll barrier.
CB – I noticed when I preview, there’s no “POST” button and then when you go back, my comments are gone. I cut and paste but I think there’s a glitch there…
EIGHT PLUS SIX?? I’m a product of the baltimore county public school system how am I supposed to do that?!
Frak!
OK, better. Now I just need to figure out why Website is in such small font. Stupid internets.
Please keep it simple for those of us who need a few rum and cokes to get through all the Bush and Iraq news.
I got 10+6 right and managed to post but, when I thought that 10+1 was 11 I was told that I failed the test. I won’t bother trying to re-write and re-post the message.
Let’s see if my guess that 7+5=12 is correct; my math teacher in highschool helped me cheat on my final exam, because she was so fed up with me…
PS. TAIO, please do not change your screen name. Even if I can’t post, I’d hate not to see that sig ever again.
Math? MATH?!
There’s a reason I have two English degrees.
**breaks out calculator**
Okay … I’m good to go.
I’m glad I’m good at math. Also, that our fellow Americans seem to have joined us CB bloggers in replacing the callous Republicans who were in power with responsive, caring, and responsible Democrats in Congress, and, possibly, the Senate and who will, I hope, restore true democracy to our shores by restoring accountability and checks and balances that had been mandated by the US constitution.
