Christmas is a day about giving, so I thought it’d be fun to consider some gift ideas for those we think about every day.<\/p>\n
Karl Rove gets a calculator this year, because his own personal math<\/a> turned out to be a little unreliable.<\/p>\n German Chancellor Angela Merkel deserves a comfy massage chair, so foreign heads of state don’t feel compelled to accost her<\/a> at G8 meetings.<\/p>\n More so than anyone else in the country, Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) needs a copy<\/a> of “An Inconvenient Truth<\/a>.”<\/p>\n Rep. Virgil Goode<\/a> (R-Va.) gets a copy of the U.S. Constitution, with Article VI<\/a> highlighted so he can’t miss it.<\/p>\n Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.) would clearly get a lot of use<\/a> out of a CD set of “How to Speak Conversational Spanish.”<\/p>\n Stephen Colbert<\/a> gets a ticket to next year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, just in case next year’s headliner is tempted to go easy on those guys. Tom DeLay may be known as “The Hammer,” but this year, the appropriate gift might be an extra-large sledgehammer, the kind that’s really good for breaking rocks<\/a> in the hot sun.<\/p>\n Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) might enjoy a copy of Dan Savage’s “Skipping Toward Gomorrah<\/a>,” so at least he’d finally know what all the snickering is about.<\/p>\n Tony Snow obviously deserves an Honorary Presidency of the Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf<\/a> Appreciation Society.<\/p>\n

\nScooter Libby<\/a> could probably use a bulletproof vest, just in case he goes hunting with Dick Cheney before the VP is scheduled to testify.<\/p>\n
