He's tanned and rested - J. F. Kerry in 2008

I have a Java counter at the top of the main page that counts how many days it has been since J. F. Kerry promised on national television to sign his Form 180 and release all his military records. A reader turned me onto this website: Decision '08 and this entry:
Kerry Campaign: Initial Phases Going Smoothly
In a hastily organized news conference, a spokesman for the Perpetual John Kerry for President Campaign said the initial phases of "Operation Sign Form SF-180" were going better than expected. Specifically, in the 90 days since Kerry promised on national television to sign the form releasing his military records, the following milestones have been achieved:

  • a pen has been procured from a Walmart on the outskirts of Little Rock "for substantially less than the $12,000 budgeted";
  • a special committee has been formed to discuss the best way to remove the cap from the pen;
  • a copy of the notoriously difficult to obtain form has been located on eBay and bidding is underway; and
  • a "Dinner With John" fund raising extravaganza is in the works to obtain the necessary postage to mail the signed form, should such a step be required.
The spokesman hastened to add that Kerry would not be bound by a timeline, stating "Senator Kerry believes strongly that announcing a proposed signing date would only encourage further attacks by insurgent bloggers".
