Russian newspaper plays U.S. card game
Wed Sep 24, 1:03 PM ET

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian newspaper has trumped the U.S. government with playing cards featuring top American figures -- a parody of decks depicting most-wanted Iraqis that were issued to U.S. troops during the war in Iraq (news - web sites).

U.S. President George W. Bush (news - web sites) is the jack of hearts in the new pack, which went on sale ahead of a meeting this week between Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin (news - web sites).

In the packs that are selling out in Moscow, Bush's father, former U.S. President George Bush, is the ace of hearts, while Federal Reserve (news - web sites) Chairman Alan Greenspan (news - web sites) is the ace of spades.
