(2004-10-13) -- Questions allegedly drafted by CBS reporter Bob Schieffer for tonight's final presidential debate of 2004 were accidentally emailed to Mr. Schieffer's "buddy list" then forwarded to a blogger who leaked them to the public.

CBS immediately disavowed the questions and refused to launch an internal investigation to discover the cause of the leak. Nevertheless, internet rumors persist that the following questions on domestic policy are among those Mr. Schieffer plans to ask President George Bush and John Forbes Kerry, who is also a U.S. Senator.

To Kerry: Sen. Kerry, if an American earns more than $200,000 per year, and has $35,000 more than he needs to pay his bills: What should he do with the extra money? Choose the alternative which is best for America:
a) Spend it on a new Chrysler Crossfire.
b) Hire a new employee for his business.
c) Invest it in a stock mutual fund.
d) Send it to the Internal Revenue Service so President Kerry can use it to help people whose lives were ruined by the Bush administration.

To Bush: Mr. President, of all the mistakes you have made in the White House, which one made you look most stupid and unfit to be president?

To Kerry: Since your healthcare plan (available at JohnKerry.com) is not a federal government takeover of one-seventh of the U.S. economy, what hope can you really offer to save us from this horrendous crisis?

To Bush: After you leave the White House in January 2005, do you think you'll return to your privileged life of leisure or will you team up with former vice president Cheney to make confiscatory profits in the oil industry?

To Kerry: Given your failure, during two decades in the senate, to introduce legislation to provide healthcare for all Americans, tell us about your most heroic moment in combat in Vietnam?

To Bush: With your administration's track record of demanding accountability from public schools, does it ever embarrass you or the First Lady that you look so much like a chimpanzee?

To Kerry: As president, what will you do to ensure that Americans don't squander their opportunity to retire in luxury on Social Security?

To Bush: Mr. President, what's that thing on your back, under your jacket?

To Kerry: Sen. Kerry, since you're a child of privilege who attended private schools and married a wealthy heiress, does it shock you that President Bush lacks your sense of compassion for hard-working middle Americans?

To Bush: What's your favorite feature of Sen. Kerry's plan?
