O'Quiz!
This week's O'Quiz is brutal -- as of this writing, the average score is 3.71 out of 10. Given that pure guesswork would generate an average of 2.5, we know we are dealing with one nasty current events quiz. I noodled my way to a 6, a rare above-average performance for me. You can do better.
Post your scores in the comments. Honestly.

9 out of 10, but I admit to a couple of lucky guesses (and an unlucky one).

8 out of 10. Missed #5 Bravo, and #6 M. Malloy (I had that but changed it!) Had to guess #4 but guessed right.

But like they said; who ever heard of Mike Malloy outside his own household.
And I was positive members of Congress had to be on drugs or alcohol; it's the only explanation that makes any sense.
And can't they pay for Native American child abusers out of casino profits?

I got nine. I answered A&E to ?5 and Bravo turned out to be correct. Go know. The more absurd, the more likely it is to be (politically) correct.

Got 8. And, "pure guesswork" would generate an average of 2.0, not 2.5. It's 10 questions with 5 alternatives to each.

Now I am really frustrated that do to aggravating my cervical spine damage, have been able to see well enough to spend my normal amount of time reading and then "messaging" the insightful/informative posts into "collections" to that email list of more than 140 VRWC bloggers.
Due to the above, have actually been listening to the cable nets vs vs only tuning in for items of real interest/import.
I've scored 9's before but never this:

Could be more, but right now vision so blurry that I cannot tell....sighs & grrrrrrrrs...

I confused Ed Schultz for Mike Malloy; thought "muslim veils" was too obvious, after the veils-in-school kerfuffle several years ago; and had no idea about ABC's new Sunday host.

Guessed Randi Rhodes based on her priors.
Missed Amanpour's assignment.
Knew shortage of females caused male violence (see China shortly, but did not know the warmists have put their insane oar into this.

8 out of 10.
I'm no genius. I do, however, read daily postings from about a dozen reputable right leaning blogs and most of the questions were covered by them in the last few days.
