1. Um
I don't doubt your intentions... but that quiz is barely grammatical, let alone comprehensible, and it really wouldn't make any effect on anyone who doesn't believe whacked-out conspiracy theories. Heck, even most liberals don't believe Bush let it happen on purpose.

3. Just what is incomprehensible or barely grammatical?
Specifics, please..

Perhaps it not comprehensible to you. If so, I can provide a more elementary quiz.

15. The quiz looks good to me
and I'm no conspiracy theorist; I didn't see anything like that in it.

The only grammatical error I can see is the extra 'to' in 32B - only worth correcting if you're submitting it for publication somewhere.

I'd take issue with "rendered the entire United Nations irrelevant" - maybe "tried to render the United Nations irrelevant".

What's the answer to 2? I'd assume (a), since that's most embarrassing, but I'd never heard about him having anything to do with movies at all.

And of course it's long - Bush has done so many things wrong.

14. Excellent
It is really scary to see all of the things this idiot has done in 3 short years.

It's going to take a hell of alot longer to undo the damage he has wrought upon this country.
