Test your knowledge with 12 questions, then be ready to shudder when you see how others did. Take the test I scored 10 right. g

12 of 12... I'm in the upper 2%.... I'll bet that most here will score the same.

I got the twelve, but one or two I wasn't positive on.

10 for 12, I got the unemployed question wrong, which i call bullschit on, it is not closer to 10%, it is closer to 15% maybe even 20%. And I do know there are more than 70,000 troops in Afghanistan.
Back in the heartland, Thank God!

kind of scary to see the percentages on each question who got it wrong....kind of explains Obama/Pelosi/Reid, too.

Got 9...
The 2 I missed it was 50/50 and incorrectly guessed on them both...

11 - I disagree with them on how they are measuring unemployment but that's another issue.
Sad how little attention many folks pay to what's going on in the world.
Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about.

11 of 12. I'm with Les. Missed the unemployment figure and 10% is a bogus number. It is way more than that- I guessed 15%.

12 of 12. Dithered a bit on the Afghanistan question but got it correct. Scary how the mean point of the curve is shifted so far to the 'left'.

12 out of 12. Looks like we have a well informed group here at the Campfire.

I got 10 out of 12, which is pretty good considering I am not American. But living here off and on sort of makes you want to understand more about the country and it's people.

That's pretty good Lynn. Doubt I'd do that good on a Canadian news quiz.
