The Washington Post's Dana Milbank

decided that it would be uproariously "try-and-top-that-one-on-SNL-Will-Farrell" funny to wear hunting outfits while discussing Vice President Cheney's weekend hunting accident.

Okay ... does that mean costumes are now "in" for television interviews?

Personally I like the idea, so I've put together a few props and costumes that might help viewers more easily identify the politicians being discussed on daily news programs.

For discussions about Sen. Robert C. Byrd, (D-WV) a KKK hood:

For discussions about Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY), prop ashtrays and lamps to throw at the interviewer:

For discussions about Cindy Sheehan, a Fidel Castro costume:

For discussions about the White House Press corps, Spanish Inquisition outfits:

For discussions about the "Palestinian crisis," a replica suicide bomber's jacket:

For discussions about former President Bill Clinton, a cigar and kneepads:

For discussions about the NSA eavesdropping scandal, a "buttinski" phone line testing set:

For discussions about former Vice President Al Gore, Buddhist monk garb:

For discussions about Ted Kennedy ... hmmm, this gets complicated:
