How Appealing
# Posted 4:00 AM by Ariel David Adesnik 
might be fun to offer some of the protesters free chocolate tomorrow in exchange for taking a five-question "Quagmire Quiz" about the war.Why give out free chocolate? Because no one likes taking pop quizzes. And because then I can eat the leftovers myself. Buwahahahaha!
Anyhow, I want the quiz to be easy enough that anyone who reads a newspaper on a regular basis should get most or all of the questions right. If there are just a few space cadets who don't know the answers, that's what I'll report. But thanks to Evan Coyne Maloney, I think the results may be a little more interesting than that.
At the moment, here are the five questions I intend to use:
1. George Bush's middle initial is W. What does it stand for?The question about ANSWER is the only one that's a little obscure, but I think that if you're at a protest organized by ANSWER it's a reasonable question to ask. Results forthcoming... (0) opinions -- Add your opinion
2. Approximately how many American soliders have been killed in Iraq?
3. One of the main organizers of this protest is ANSWER. What do the letters of "ANSWER" stand for?
4. Who is the prime minister of Iraq?
5. Who is the president of Afghanistan?
