Let’s Play Jeopardy!
Thank you, GM! Thank you, Don Pardo! Let’s play Jeopardy!
Today’s categories are Liars, Hypocrites, Crooks, JFK, and Other Democrats. Please select.
Uh, I’ll take “JFK for $500,†Alex. (Readers may play along.)
"Did a '180' on the 180."
(Pretend you have a buzzer and respond.)
Did you get it? Here's another clue.
“100 days ago today.â€Â
Getting close? Okay, try humming the “think music†to help your concentrate. (da da da da da da daaaaa, da da da da dah', dada da da da....) Here's the last hint.
“Awarded Claimed three Purple Hearts.â€Â
That’s enough hints. How did you do!? Okay, did you get it on your own or did you get some help by looking at the update in the upper right? Oh yes, I hope you remembered to word your response in the form of a question. We’re very picky on sticking to the rules, even if certain politicians don’t.
Yes, a milestone of one-hundred days has passed since John F. Kerry (after reporting for duty with one of the worst salutes I’ve ever seen) agreed on national television to sign Form SF-180 to release his military records.
Are you waiting for the follow-up and outrage from the media? Keep dreaming. There’s no pressure for Kerry to release his military records. The media doesn’t seem to care. As a result, Kerry’s follow-through hasn’t been swift (as in swift boat veterans.) But, we’ll help you remember and keep counting.
Now, let’s go to "Hypocrites for $200." There are a lot of Democrats left to cover before they put us in Final Jeopardy.

GM, As you would imagine, I remain disgusted with Kerry, his supporters and the media (for not going after this issue...among a host of other things). Kerry tried unsuccessfully to run on both sides of street. 1. He has attempted to paint himself as a military hero. One Silver Star Medal, One Bronze Star Medal with "V" and Three Purple Heart Medals ALL received in a FOUR months period, after which he "bailed out" on his troops. All of this smells really bad to me. Too many medals. Actions of "heroism" not validated to my standards. PHM for "wounds" so slight that they hardly, if at all, qualify. 2. He then soon discovered that anti-war was all the rage. Never of man of principles, he "jumped ship" again and threw away his medals, or was it his ribbons, or was it someone else's medals? He participated in anti-war events and met with members of our enemies' government in Paris....while still hold a commission in the Naval Reserve. Much later, he slowly morphs back into the "Navy Warrior". In his senate office, on public display are his medals. Hmmmm. I thought he threw them away? While, like too many, he goes with whatever he thinks is the prevailing wind. Thomas Sowell of the Hoover Institution, has commented on the fact the we don't know what kind of discharge Kerry actually received as his official records remain sealed. Bush signed Form 180, why, indeed hasn't Kerry? I would lay some bets that there is stuff in there that he doesn't want the public to see.
