Could you imagine actually playing the drinking game? I would be drunk the first 3 minutes, in a coma after 10 minutes and before he was done - in the morgue due to alcohol poisoning.

I've done a version of the Eating Game for a past SOTU.

It's quite a sight, when you consider that I puke with the regularity of Steve-O.

I hear that.

I love how now it's Iran backing the sectarian violence in Iraq. So first, it's Afghanistan harboring al Qaeda. Then Iraq was behind 9/11. Now Iran is behind the violence in Iraq. And then we'll find out North Korea is giving nuclear material to Iran. And Russia gave those nukes to North Korea. And we won the Cold War, thus declaring war on ourselves and now I have a headache.

I loved it when Bush brought up terrorists and the camera went right to Chertoff

I actually, honestly, legitimately forgot to watch it. I think I'm grateful. Maybe my subconscious destroyed the part of my brain that held the information that it was on tonight in order to save me. I smell copper.

That was the most awkward State of the Union I've ever watched.

I just drink during awkward pauses. In other words I use a beer bong for 15 minutes.

C-SPAN only has it in realplayer...so it looks like I'm not gonna get to see it until somebody posts it in a different format.

Last year Bush claimed he'd start to withdraw his military from Iraq by the end of 2006, and his fans cheered. This year, he's talking about sending more soldiers to Iraq. I bet the same people cheered.

I watched it for about five minutes before I realized I had better things to do. I don't remember the Republican cheering sounding like a bunch of drunk frat boys in previous years.

Surprised no one has mentioned Webb's eloquent response. Far better than the wimpy Democratic rebuttals of years past.

Here's a great take on it by Newsweek's Johnathan Alter.

An excerpt:

Quote:
Jan. 21, 2007 - Something unprecedented happened tonight, beyond the doorkeeper announcing, "Madame Speaker." For the first time ever, the response to the State of the Union Message overshadowed the president's big speech. Virginia Sen. James Webb, in office only three weeks, managed to convey a muscular liberalism—with personal touches—that left President Bush's ordinary address in the dust. In the past, the Democratic response has been anemic—remember Washington Gov. Gary Locke? This time it pointed the way to a revival for national Democrats.

I couldn't stomach Bush's SOTU, but managed to tune into NPR right as his speech was ending and Webb's was starting. It was the first SOTU Democratic response in a long time that didn't make me want to take a shit on the Democrats.

Webb is terrific. I only hope the rest of the Democrats will be as eloquent and headstrong as he is. At least the party is moving in the right direction for the first time in years.
