8. The DU meta game.
Based on every goofball Obama-hating bullshit that you see on DU.

For example: I would not be surprised if Obama mentions Yemen tonight.

Yemen is a failing state and is on the mind of anybody who pays any reasonable interest to foreign affairs. Thus, it's entirely reasonable for the President to mention it.

And if he does, DU is going to go absolute ape shit. All of the 9-11 twoofers, the sort of people who think that the underwear bomber was a CIA plant, are going to freak out and accuse Obama of making up Yemen. Because he wants us to be afraid. Nevermind the irony of paranoid people worrying about people being afraid.

So if Obama mentions Yemen, and DUers freak out, take a drink.

If Obama makes a valid comment on any security issue and DU freaks out, take a drink.

If DUers say he's just like Bush, take a drink.

If DUers complain that the Democrats are applauding, take a drink.

If DUers pull a Joe Wilson and accuse Obama of lying, take a drink.

If DUers make racist comments, take a drink.

If Obama calls for a repeal of DADT, and DUers complain about it, take a drink.

If Obama mentions the economy is turning around, and DUers claim otherwise, take a drink.

If Obama mentions job creation, and DUers complain about it, take a drink.


Btw, when I say "DUers" I'm using the very loose technical meaning of the word. I'm including trolls along with the real DUers.
