What a tonic to read this! My guess is that this will take off like a rocket. Also, that the administration will attempt to prosecute or persecute Kathy Eder in one way or another. Karl Rove should be more than a little nervous. This sort of thing is caricature+, and people without grace or humour, such as Bush, can become very vengeful when faced with this sort of thing. But, like Napster, this cat is out of the bag now, and whatever happens to Kathy Eder's venture, it's more than likely that others will also produce their own packs. If I were young and American this is something I'd be working on producing as of this morning.

Hurricanes with French names beginning with Cin odd numbered years make me a little nervous: Camille 1969.
Maybe Karl Rove should be a little nervous.
Cards Highlight Bush Administration
POSTED: 9:07 a.m. EDT July 15, 2003
SAN FRANCISCO -- High school teacher Kathy Eder is stacking the deck -- against the Bush administration.
She's created a deck of cards of her own, taking a cue from the Pentagon.
But instead of featuring Iraq's must-wanted, Eder's cards have pictures and comments critical of administration officials. (<http://www.usplayingcard.com/iraqdeck.html>Iraq's Most-Wanted Cards)
The San Jose, Calif., teacher says her "<http://www.operationhiddenagenda.com>Hidden Agenda" cards are not hateful, but factual.
In Eder's version, President George W. Bush is the ace of spades with the title, "Dictator of the World." Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is shown in a 1983 picture shaking Saddam Hussein's hand.
Eder said she's sold 3,000 of her Hidden Agenda decks, and has ordered another 5,000.
