As we look back on the 111th Congress, we will remember two things: a mediocre (but actually successful!) health care bill and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and a bit and lots of Republican obstructionism. To mark the end of this joyous legislative year, your Wonkette has gone on this Internet thing for children (such as your editor) to make collectible trading cards of the Senate's top obstructionists. You can even print them out and give them to children for Christmas! If you hate children, that is.
Lindsey Graham
Mitch McConnell
John McCain
Tom Coburn
Jon Kyl
Jim DeMint
Yes, even worse than coal.
Wonkette Senate Obstruction Trading Cards Will Ruin Your Child's Christmas
At least Newt Gingrich and Tom DeLay aren't going to be in this set.
I think these cards are <i>better</i> than regular coal.
They&#039;re not better than clean coal, though.
