This takes less than one minute and is incredibly accurate...well worth the little bit of effort, I promise.

This test has only one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer you will discover where you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely and completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Only you will know the results, so remember that your answer needs to be honest.

THE SITUATION: You are in Miami with chaos all around you caused by a hurricane. There is a flood of biblical proportions. You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless. You're trying to shoot career-making photos. There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.

THE TEST: Suddenly you see a woman in the water. She is fighting for her life trying not to be taken down with the debris. Your move closer. Somehow the woman looks like...Good Heavens it's Nancy Pelosi. At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take her under forever.

YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS: You can save the life of Nancy Pelosi OR you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the last minutes of one of the world's most powerful women hell-bent on the destruction of the USA.

THE QUESTION: Here's the question and please give an honest answer:
Would you:
A) select high contrast color film, or...
B) go with the classic simplicity of black and white

Option C) Save Her and save the Republic, then take a selfie with Her.

I assume you meant save her and trash the republic, since she’s made it clear that she doesn’t believe in it.

No save the Republic. It is our duty to always question those in power, or else we won't have a Republic. You may not like Her but she has a job to do.

She advocates accepting illegal aliens, sanctuary cities, allowing illegals to vote, and eliminating the electoral college, among other things. If that isn’t damaging the republic, let alone trying to destroy it, I have no idea what is.

Is this conjecture or fact. Please point me in the direction of your sources, especially the one where she advocates allowing illegals to vote.

I noticed that you're from Portland and as such, you may not be aware of the strong movement in this state, California. If you had lived here the past 55 years as I have, you would be aware that California is a blue state and has been for many years. And Nancy Pelosi is part of that. Furthermore, it has become clear that the goal of the leaders in this state want open borders and openly invite illegals into the state and to participate in local government activities. I'm not sure exactly the year, but some time ago our democratic state government allowed illegals to apply for and get driver's license over the objection of conservatives such as myself. Many, including myself, felt that this move was the first step in allowing illegals to vote. While I can't point to any one source, it is my strong belief that the goal of this state is to give illegals the right to vote. In many respects, illegals have more rights in this state than citizens. I'm sure that there are many liberals that will take a different view from what I have presented here. In fact, I fully expect it. However, this is my opinion based on what I have observed in this state.

Listen to the news--even the liberal news--she’s said it many times.

We need both political ideology's Left and Right, to make this country work. Without that there will be no country. This crop of politicians need to relearn how to cross the aisle to work for the good of the republic and not the party line. This goes equally for both sides as they both are at fault.
