    FYI Maggie, what’s with the “tweet…tweet” book-ends? Every post has it, shows up in Camino and Safari.
    Cheers

    Went zero for six. Hillary, huh? Caveat emptor.

  5. formwiz on January 31, 2013 at 2:46 pm

    Aced it. You have to think in terms of the grammar used.

  6. FUBO on January 31, 2013 at 4:15 pm

    I aced it, however, I would had said Imam Obama said every word of it and not who actually did. It does not surprise me however.

  7. Grumpy on January 31, 2013 at 5:08 pm

    I aced it to– not because I know the answers- but because of the way it was set up..

  8. findalis on January 31, 2013 at 7:29 pm

    I got them right but not because Hillary said them. I knew the names posted didn’t.

      Same here… just by reason of deduction… not because I knew who said them… I was thinking OdramaKing would have been the culprit…

      • Maggie on February 1, 2013 at 2:25 pm

        montanaconserv – congratulations. Love the OddramaKing. Perfect.

  9. Trixie B on January 31, 2013 at 9:01 pm

    I got ‘em all right!

  10. Yos on January 31, 2013 at 9:56 pm

    Here’s the thing, Findalis. I answered ‘em all “right” but my reasoning was off: I rather was convinced that those words belonged to ‘Lil Barry, every question. Never even for a second suspected Hillary. (sigh) Then again, er, “what does it matter?”

  11. proof on January 31, 2013 at 11:46 pm

    I aced it, too. Never underestimate a modern progressieve.

    All correct but I didn’t know it was Cankles. I was leaning toward our God-King but there obviously weren’t enough self references.

    Maggie,
    Off topic….I have another post about Dubai today. You might be interested.

      To everyone posting here, I had a genuine conservative on Twitter tell me I should have done my research. He gave me a link to Snopes. I spent about an hour researching. Snopes basically said the quotes were taken out of context – misquoted, etc. After my research, each one of them is accurate. One or two left out a word – for instance one left out the word “turf.” One left out about 5 words in the middle, that further reiterated what she said and didn’t change anything. The person who tweeted me took exception to the “free market” quoteShe said each and meant each as it is presented. I found that the quiz is all over the place. I also found that Hillary was quoted at Weekly Standard and Townhall for several of them. The problem was, even Snopes didn’t have links to the originals. The links they have were 404 errors. Two of the quotes were from the “Faith and Family” forum with Hillary and Obama. So if anyone tells you they are taken out of context, or misrepresented, they were not, IMHO.

      Jim, Congratulations! Sorry no prize, but I learned a lot because I did have to do the research because of the story I mentioned earlier about the Tweet challenger.

    I got them all right so I guess I aced the test even though I thought Obama made the comments.

      LC, yep the right answer was simply none of the above.

  16. Steven on February 1, 2013 at 5:42 pm

    100%.

    That’s kind of sad, isn’t it?

    I knew that none of them were any of the choices — they were too American in orientation. But I thought they might be the one and only, and not the most corrupt woman in America. But they think the same, and you know that if one Democrat is saying, so are all the rest.
