State of the Union Drinking Game: Your Picks, 2004

[Robb]

Yep. That time again. Tuesday night, if I'm correct.

Pick your words and phrases... and behave as if, like me, you want a winner -- you want to get tanked. :)

[R3dD0g]

1. I think he'll focus on the economy.

They've fudged the numbers so well by now that most people don't realize they're jobs are in jeopardy.

Just today the papers reported that the Electrolux plant in Michigan was closing - 2700 jobs in a town of 8000.

But, the stock market is up up UP!

[Bronco69]

2. Definately the economy.

* will be standing before the cameras urging all good Murkins to look out their windows and if they don't see a new car out there they must not be working hard enough.

[JasonDeter]

3. What about, "What Americans must understand..." I mean

the mans an idiot, the biggest moron to ever hold the presidency and yet he starts so many moronic statements off with "what Americans must understand."

[Guaranteed]

4. If he says "Robb is a dingbat" I'll drink a fifth of vodka

:)

[Robb]

5. I'll be taking the word

"the", just to be on the safe side. ;)

[ComerPerro]

7. I might anyway

I may need to after watching that jerkoff.

[nyrnyr1994]

13. You could just increase your chances...

and just drink to all of those choices, you're bound to get pissed* by the end of the speech.

(* I'm not of British descent, I'm just fond of that slang for getting drunk. But you could use both meanings of the word in this case for sure :toast:)

[montana_hazeleyes]

25. I,m also fond of the English equivalent to Bar -Hop:

Pub-Crawl. Just seems to descibe it better.:beer:

[LynneSin]

30. I'll top you with a keg of Pabst Blue Ribbon

if he says "Robb is a Dingbat"

btw - I hate PBR - nauseating stuff!!!

[Robb]

31. Ha! You fell for my little scheme!!

What you don't know is that I've been spending the past three years working on a plan to get him to say "Robb is a Dingbat" in the 2004 SOTU address, all with the belief that someone (read: LynneSin) would make a challenge just like that!! (Mostly, the plan involves a lot of cocaine and a digital camera, but we won't go into it.)

Ha ha!! Ha ha ha!! MWA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

[terrya]

6. One more: "Marriage is between a man and a woman"

George will formerly endorse the Federal Marriage Amendment Tuesday night.

Count on it.

Terry

[ncrainbowgrrl]

22. I have a sinking feeling in my stomach that you're right.

And that he'll get a round of applause that brings down the house. *shudder*

[gator_in_Ontario]

8. other...9/11,9/11,9/11!!! n/t

[Enraged_Ape]

14. Can't believe 9/11 didn't make the list

This is by far his most tired and tiresome meme.

[Norbert]

9. "Tax cuts are working"

or some stupid observation like that.

[ronzo]

10. Mass graves or rape rooms.

Chug if he hits 'em both in the same sentence. :toast:

[Lauren2882]

11. Saddam Hussein = Al-Qaeda/9-11

3 sips everytime Bush conflates the two.

Funny you should bring up drinking and SOTU ... last year the address fell on my 21st birthday ... I should hope that even here it would go without saying that I wasn't watching.

This year, however, I don't have an excuse and will probably have to watch.

[rucky]

12. Terr: I'll drink to that

White Russians or B-52 shots?

[salin]

15. Any time he strings more than 8 words together... without pausing

This version is for those who chose not to get smashed.

[Robb]

16. I thought of another teetotaller's edition...

...Take a drink anytime he says "...and I take full responsibility." ;)

[DisgustedDemocrat]

17. Oh I can't stand how he can't string a complete sentence together!

[blondeatlast]

19. I'll take that option!

I'm quite the lightweight when it comes to alcohol--thanks for giving me a way to get in on the fun!

[calimary]

18. Do obnoxious smirks and used-car-salesman smiles count for anything?

Other than that, I'd go with some combo of how "we're safer now" or "more secure now" or "more tax cuts" crap.

Actually, the entire speech and the reality of who's giving it makes me want to crawl inside some bottle, and I'm not even that much of a drinker.

[DS1]

20. wanna get blitzed? "Strong"

[_NorCal_D_]

21. I predict that Bush

will mention the capture of Saddam over and over in an attempt to prove that the Iraq quagmire is 'progressing'. :crazy:

[nostamj]

23. i think that

strength or growth

will be the passout before the dem response words

[Robb]

24. LOL!

I love it. :) "Pass out before the Dem response".

Make your picks, we play on Tuesday!! :bounce:

[Lostmessage]

26. Every time Bush pauses take a drink

When he listens in his earpiece for more words to his speech take a drink. By the time he is finished you will be so drunk that you will pass out.

[radfringe]

27. [fill in the blank] hates freedom

probably won't mention Afghanistan, Iraq, WMDs, Bin-Laden, AL-Qeada or the Taliban directly -- but I betcha a bottle of Jack Daniels (or the potion of choice) that he will mention that hates freedom

[radfringe]

28. What percentage of congress (by party) will give

Bush* standing ovation?

All of them some of the time, some of them all of the time?

my bet is on ALL the Repubs ALL of the time and some of the Dems some of the time --- and there will be big "gaps" in the applause with only most of the Dems not clapping or standing

[LynneSin]

29. Nu-Cle-Yur

:D
