Bulls**t bingo

[Dennis Klinefelt]

If you find  it difficult to focus on one of Obama's speeches, I suggest you try this game while watching him speak.  A game to play during the long, winter nights.





Rules for Bullshit Bingo:

1. Before Barrack Obama's next televised speech, prepare your "Bullshit Bingo" card by drawing a square.   I find that 5" x 5" is a good size.
Then divide the square into columns --five across and five down. That will give you 25 one by one inch blocks.

2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:

. Restored our reputation     . Strategic fit     . Let me be clear    . Make no mistake    . Back from the brink
. Signs of recovery     . Out of the loop     . Benchmark     . Job creation     . Fiscal restraint    . Win-win
. Affordable health care     . Previous Administration     . Greed on Wall Street    . At the end of the day
. Empower (or empowerment)    . Touch base    . Mindset    . Corporate greed    . Ballpark
. Game plan     . Leverage    . Inherited as in "I inherited this mess"   . Relief for working families
alternate word - "unprecedented"

3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear Obama use of those words/phrases.

4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"

Testimonials from past satisfied "Bullshit Bingo" players:

"My attention span during speeches has improved dramatically." - David D., Florida

"What a gas! Speeches will never be the same for me after my first win." - Bill R., New York City

"The atmosphere was tense in the last speech as 14 of us waited for the  fifth box." - Ben G., Denver

This of course requires that you actually listen to him talk.

He has not now or ever had one thing to say I care to listen to.

I have only (ever) heard his voice for as long as it takes to reach for the remote.

I would rather listen to Osama Bin Laden.  I hold them in equal standing, but would find Bin Laden's comments more interesting.
