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 -- and dividing it 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 -
"Unprecedented")
. Allah Akbar
* 3*. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one
of
those words/phrases.
* 4. *When you get_ five blocks _horizontally,
vertically,
or diagonally,stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"

"My attention span during speeches has improved
