Mon, 14 Nov 2005, 10:33:00 EST

AUSTIN, TX (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Political Parody LLC (www.polidy.com), a socially aware novelty company dedicated to bringing about social change through political humor, today announced the launch of The Bushy Cards, a 54-image, casino quality, collector's edition playing card deck, featuring humorous visual commentaries on George W. Bush.

"Our mission is to spread political humor throughout the entire world by poking a little fun at controversial leaders who seem to be taking themselves a little too seriously," said Carlos Blanco, President of Political Parody, and creator of The Bushy Cards. "We hope that, in addition to generating sales revenue by supplying socially responsible novelties to the specialty gift industry, we will help raise awareness about political injustice, and remind everybody that especially in difficult times, it's important to hold on to your sense of humor." Future plans include an election 2006 deck, and a dictator's deck.

The technically impressive composite images in The Bushy Cards include:


* George W. Bush as the Mona Lisa with a face that launched a thousand warships

* George W. Bush as a peacenik holding a bouquet of daisies, who knows too well where all the flowers have gone.

* George W. Bush as Rosie the Riveter who just CAN'T do it,

* George W. Bush as a John Lennon fan...just imagine...

Also included is a romper-stomper George W. Bush sporting a Mohawk and nose ring, a gay activist George, George as a poster boy for the theory of evolution, and the jokers in The Bushy Cards feature Dubya in a variety of clown suits, because if the rubber nose fits...

The Bushy Cards retail for $9.95 and are available for sale on the Political Parody website at www.polidy.com. For a limited time, a portion of all retail revenues are being donated to the Hurricane Relief Fund.

"Regardless of age, sex, nationality or party affiliation, everybody laughs when they see these cards," said Blanco. "I consider them a celebration of democracy."
