The crew at my newspaper gave this to me as a going away gift, and I must assume also a gag. Is my political ideology that transparent?

I have been studying these cards for several days now. It comprises 50 of the most stalwart Grand Ol' Party-poopers. Officials, pundits, commentators, talk show hosts and televangelists are represented.

Each card has a subtly caricatured portrait (yikes, Katherine Harris! There's a fine line between glamor and garbage scow), their nicknames, positions, and the reverse side includes fun facts, failures/successes, and quotable quotes.

- Who said orgies "eliminate social tensions and ought to be encouraged"? (hint- fortunately for the girls in the White House secretarial pool it's not Dick Cheney)

- Sean Patrick Hannity (No. 42): "Iraqis are not going to be bombed by the United States. The United States will use pinpoint accuracy, just like we always do."

- James Clayton Dobson (No. 28): Fun Facts - Born again at age 3, when he broke into tears at the altar during church service, begging for forgiveness. Despite acting like a religious authority, including preaching, quoting scripture, and waving a Bible while speaking, he has no theological credentials whatsoever.

- Richard Bruce Cheney (No. 2)- Quotable Quotes - "Go f*** yourself," said to Senator Patrick Leahy on Senate floor.

This isn't a game, it's a field guide. Study these cards like you would study wild birds or poisonous mushrooms, and arm yourself against the adversary. Cheney already is: "Bald; rotund; may be pointing 28-gauge shotgun at your face."
