Congressional Aptitude
If you don't understand this, RUN FOR CONGRESS you'll fit right in.
A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF THE KIND OF REPRESENTATION WE HAVE IN CONGRESS:
A noted psychiatrist was a guest speaker at an academic function where Nancy
Pelosi happened to appear. Ms Pelosi took the opportunity to schmooze the
good doctor a bit and asked him a question with which he was most at ease.
"Would you mind telling me, Doctor,' she asked, 'how you detect a mental
deficiency in someone who appears completely normal?"
''Nothing is easier,'' he replied. ''You ask a simple question which anyone
should answer with no trouble. If the person hesitates, that puts you on
the track.''
''What sort of question?'' asked Pelosi.
Well, you might ask, ''Captain Cook made three trips around the world and
died during one of them. Which one?''
Pelosi thought a moment, and then said with a nervous laugh, ''You wouldn't
happen to have another example would you? I must confess I don't know much
about history.''
