Straw Man Bingo

By Keith, 22 July, 2009, No Comment

Mitch McConnell and the Senate Republicans have come up with a game that you can play at home while you’re watching another of President Obama’s staggeringly boring primetime press conferences. From Rick Klein with ABC News:

Just in time for tonight’s presidential news conference, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s office is releasing something of a viewers’ guide: “Straw Man Bingo.”

Each of the 24 squares (you get the middle square automatically, like in real Bingo) represents a group of people whom President Obama has, at some point, blamed for delaying the progress of health care reform. Republicans claim that the groups are little more than straw men, as Democrats continue to fight with themselves over the shape of legislation.

They include “naysayers”; “special interests”; “lobbyists”; “cynics”; “voices saying”; and, of course, “those on the other side.”

Genius. Here’s the gameboard in case you want to play along at home.
