A dedicated reader sends the following with regard to tonight’s scheduled State of the Union message. *
Michele will have “Jason” the gay NBA player in her box (so to speak) at the SOTU tonite. I think it’s just a rumor (actually, I’m sure it is because I started it) that the O’s weren’t able to secure their other big “get.” . . . However, they’ve improvised.
Watch for the life-size cardboard cutout figure at Michele’s left (where else) this evening. It is Pope Francis, Barack’s new BFF, there to share the moment: “Down with Inequality! Up with ‘To each according to…'”.
An almost as worthy practitioner of satire as our reader, strangely a bit more famous, Rush Limbaugh suggested an antidote to the POTUS SOTU drinking parties that have sprung up among conservatives of late. As first formulated, in an effort to get through the evening, words likely to be said by Obama in his SOTU speech are placed in a hat from which party goers draw, and when the word they have drawn is said, its bottoms up.
As you can imagine, the real alchy’s figured out real quick how to load an Obama SOTU party. Place the word “I” in the hat and . . . well that’s all you really need to turn it into a fiesta de barackos borrachos
So Rush proposed today, in the interest of sobriety, that the word “Wisconsin” be laced throughout the hat. Party goers will not get as much to drink, what kind og Obama SOTU party will that be, and how do we get through the evening??
