Vietnam Service Redux

Spring is in the air. Birds are chirping, flowers are in bloom, and in high schools across the country, the scent of standardized tests fills the halls. So in the spirit of leaving no child behind, I'm going to borrow a page from Conan O'Brien and help out with a little SAT prep. Sure it's just one question, but she's a doozy.

First: John Kerry on the Bush camp's latest efforts to undermine his service in Vietnam.

"If George Bush wants to ask me questions about that through his surrogates, he owes America an explanation about whether or not he showed up for duty in the National Guard. Prove it. That's what we ought to have. I'm not going to stand around and let them play games."

And your question:

That Team Bush is trying to bring the issue of Vietnam service back to the surface demonstrates an incredible amount of: a) audacity, b) stupidity or c) all of the above.




answer:c
