REWARD: One Simple Question For W
http://onesimplequestion.blogspot.com

The World's Shortest Blog is offering a reward to anyone with the balls to confront W in a public forum and ask him one simple question. It's a question that reframes the Bush/Kerry comparison instantly -- and opens the door to W's character for all the world to see.

It's a question that he's never faced before. So the question itself is newsworthy.

Right now, the Bush Bounty stands at $386.29! For just one question!

Please check out the one simple question and contribute to the cause.

Better yet... claim the reward!

3. I've been thinking this for monts.
Seriously,

last winter I said to my (now) wife, that this question was so simple and clear, and if he evades it, that will tell people something about this "clear spoken man."

I'm giving them money too, and urge everyone else to do so.

I've been *craving* to hear this question posed to him... I have daydreams about it.

Hopefully, the questioner will be clear-headed enough to not let him evade by stating what's in his "record" since arrests may be expunged from one's record under the right circumstances (like doing community service for a year).

Git 'im!

7. I think, if someone calls him "Drinky McDumbass" to his face,
They deserve double! $$$$$$


And, about the site...

Great idea...

But, I must confess...

Had I the opportunity, I would ask him this question for free.

16. If he says once or twice.....
Then no one is going to give a flying leap because Kerry being Kerry will say something dumb and all the focus is on Kerry AGAIN.

17. Yah, its all Kerry's fault that the media only negatively covers him.
Not that Bush would ever answer this question anyway.

18. When does Kerry say dumb things?

All I've heard is the edits of things he's said, taken out of context.

Name one thing.

19. I guess we should spend less time on DU
and more wherever this fella came from, because clearly he knows alot more about Kerry than we do.

21. It is at $547.29
I could use the money. Hey, maybe that is why he doesn't want to do the town hall style debate.
