Play the State of the Union Address Drinking Game
I can't believe anyone would gather with friends and brews to watch President Bush speak, and getting wasted alone is like scoring a hole-in-one on a deserted golf course, but a State of the Union drinking game has been outlined for your liver's displeasure.

Beginning at 9 p.m. Eastern, when Dubya commences his recap of what everyone knows — the whole world hates us — you (the drunk) are expected to swig once for each mention of “men and women in/of our armed forces” (adding one each time the phrase is preceded by "brave"), twice for any reference to "bipartisan" or "bipartisanship" (could probably add "fantasy" to that one) and three times for every instance of the word "deficit." Might as well add "rimjob" to that last one. Each has the same chance of being spoken of.

FOXNews.com, Bush's other official re-election site, has an interesting article on how "Lobbyists Await Mention in State of Union Address." I imagine being a Washington lobbyist is like being an L.A. talent agent, only with less sincerety. Good luck to the American Bankers Association in getting Bush to discuss the importance of savings accounts. Seems like a worthwhile cause, what with that job market kicking ass and the tons of money people have flowing out of cookie jars.

C-SPAN's website has transcripts of every State of the Union Address since Harry S. Truman delivered his in 1945, a day after Franklin Delano Roosevelt was laid to rest. Harry said, "The armies of liberation today are bringing to an end Hitler's ghastly threat to dominate the world. Tokyo rocks under the weight of our bombs." Those were heavy times, man. Especially if you were Nazi-groupie Eva Braun, seeing your sexy man Hitler's reign come to an end. Must've done wonders for their sex lives.

Enjoy the speech, everyone! Wake me when it's over!

Speaking of Hitler, saw this story about Churchill's parrot, still alive and still offering up opinions about Hitler. The parrot did better than any of the participants, that's for sure....

So I've been paying a little attention to the news lately, and the reports have gone to how the Democrats "just want to go with the person who gives them the best chance of beating Bush." "Are really mounting a campaign to get Bush out of office" and on and on...

I don't consider myself republican or Democrat although I do tend to lean towards conservative, but I'd like to hear what the Democratic party has to say.... and would consider voting for one in the next election, but is it just me or... what are they going to do? I don't think Bush is really messing anything up too bad, and if noone can tell me what they would do differently I don't see any reason to vote him out of office. Am I the only one who thinks this?

Some of the arguments against Bush are stated in a "resumé" that floats around online:

I don't know if everything is his fault. Would 9/11 have happened under a Democratic president? Would tech stocks have collapsed? Probably.

And maybe no one will ever know whether it was "worth" 500 American lives and thousands of Iraqi lives to take Saddam out of power.

I want Bush out because I don't hold conservative views about abortion, gays and religion. And after a team goes 4-12 for three straight years, you fire the coach.

By the way, he did use the work deficit. He did not use the work rimjob. Three drinks for you.
