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 1-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
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!"
