Jeopardy! Mocks Romney With 'Binder Full of Women' Category

Alex Trebek for some reason on Monday decided to take a cheap shot at former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

On his game show Jeopardy!, one of the categories was "A Binder Full of Women" (video follows with commentary):

To add insult to injury, each answer actually showed a picture of the subject in a binder.

For those not getting the lame joke, Romney during last year's townhall debate at Hofstra University responded to a question from the audience about gender pay equality by saying that when he was governor of Massachusetts, in his desire to fill some cabinet posts with women, he was brought "binders full of women" to examine as candidates.

The left and their media minions found this hysterical and claimed it showed how out of touch Romney was.

Months later, Trebek and the folks at Jeopardy! thought it would be a hoot to make it a category.

For the record, the women in Trebek's binder were Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, photographer Annie Leibovitz, 1976 Summer Olympics gold medalist Nadia Comăneci, and silent screen star Theda Bara.
