Bullshit Bingo

Well here is a game you can actually play in Excel as well as making the squares! Have fun with this oh so prevalent game! Garaunteed to make you list to EVERY speech from now on!
Rules for Bullshit Bingo…at least it will keep you awake!
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!"
