Not Playing With a Full Deck?
Just in time for the big convention in St. Paul, a friend sent me these lovely Gay Republican Hypocrites Playing Cards -- chock full of your favorite page-loving, bathroom-stall-tapping, anti-gay-legislation-voting politicos: "These professional grade, poker size playing cards take a peek into the dark corners of the Grand Ole Party. Featuring a plethora of politicians who got caught playing pitcher for the wrong team, allegedly."
Now I certainly don't think the GOP has the market cornered on hypocrisy. But I am curious how the makers of this fine product were able to narrow the field down enough for just one deck.

Hmmm, they need a better editor. Richard Curtis is from Washington state, not Wisconsin.

Actually, they didn't even use a full deck's worth of folks. There are only 13 people featured...they repeat them across ranks, so the four aces are all Mark Foley, the four kings are all Larry Craig, etc.

Hi I'm one of the guys that made the cards. The Curtis card is just a website typo - everything's correct in the real cards. Thanks!
