...I'll cut to the chase—it's made me reconsider Solitaire as a diversion worth my time in this age of blockbuster games and social media, and I don't think that's the scotch talking...

What happens when you cross a former defense secretary, a cigar-smoking former British prime minister and a much-loved card game?

The answer is “Churchill Solitaire”...

Who would ever guess that former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld had the itch to make games?

Now available on a mobile device near you: an app designed by Winston Churchill and Donald Rumsfeld.

In every game of solitaire there are many known knowns, but it is a version that perhaps stresses the known unknowns that a certain former secretary of defense is turning into a videogame.

Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has launched an app for playing a version of solitaire favored by Winston Churchill.

Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld missed a huge opportunity this week by releasing a card-game iPhone app that isn’t called “Rummy’s Gin Rummy.” Instead, his app is called “Churchill Solitaire.” But...I LOVE IT!

Donald Rumsfeld was an influential member of Congress, served as a White House chief of staff, and aided four Presidents. This included time as both the youngest Secretary of Defense and then the oldest.

Their first client was their old boss. Latimer and Urbahn had helped write Rumsfeld’s previous book, a memoir called Known and Unknown.

In 1974, economist Arthur Laffer sketches his theory of tax policy over dinner with Wall Street Journal writer Jude Wanniski and Ford administration officials Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney, kick-starting the rise of supply-side economics.
