Featured on Tom Brokaw's program tonight was this little bit of news: the Topps Corporation is issuing Operation Enduring Freedom trading cards!!!

They have a web site, and if you click on the logo I have pictured below, you will get to see the complete explanation about these.

These are very cool, and I am very impressed. Here are some examples:

Included on the site is a complete checklist of all the cards so far in the series.

Go to this site and check it out!!

Are these purchased in specialty shops, or do you get them at drug stores?

26. Former Presidents [X42?] Unite At The Day Of Prayer

31. Rangel, Schumer, Clinton Meet With Bush

41. Congressional Leaders Lott, Hastert, Daschle

Does cutting out parts of the cards decrease their value or increase their value in this case only?

"...How many Clintons will you trade me for this W? I need something to put in my bicycle spokes..."

Imagine yourself a kid again, with a fistfull of clinton cards and your dad walks into the garage...

Whoa, pardner... Lemme see those clinton cards.

(gasp) Go get a magic marker from your mom, right now.

(squeak, squeak, squeak...)

There you go buddy. Say, you, uh didn't, uh look at those cards did you?

[Miss Marple]

Those will be the cards which you have to trade 100 for to get one Dick Cheney or George Bush. Even then I might ask for money as well!

[Miss Marple]

Karl Rove is a genius.

[Big Guy and Rusty 99]

Bring all the cards together to form a picture.

I am wondering the same thing. I found a bunch listed on EBay,
but I do not know what a good or poor price is for them!
How much are they supposed to go for?

Do they have one of Hitlery rolling her eyes during GWB's speech to congress?

[madison10]

Do I have to buy GOBS of bubble gum to get these cards? Do they come in packs of seven with cards only?

Wish I could buy ALL 90 outright. I have no patience to TRADE the blasted things. Looks like you'll need a new thread for card trading. :D Did not see any NYFD people on the list except those near Bush.

Clinton...HA!

[AmericanGurl]

I just got the entire set at Ebay with buy it now for $21.95. This also includes the stickers and puzzle.

[ozaukeemom]

Thanks. I think I may just go do that too!!

It's high time he started eating out something other than his usual fare.

[Snow Bunny]

They are going quick. Once the sellers realize the demand they prices will go way up. I bought 2 sets, one for each child. They were listed 10 minutes ago. Of the 10 auctions listed in the past hour with these cards, all have already ended with buy it now.

Target carries Topps sports cards -- think Walmart does also. My son buys his at the local sports card shop. I know the owner has anything you would ever want from Topps. Will be stopping in to see him tomorrow!

I agree about Karl Rove -- he is one of my favorites!
