YEE-HAW it is time for Barack Obama’s third (and possibly final) State of the Union address! How excited is everyone, to listen to our President describe the many ways in which our country’s problems are mostly the fault of the worst-ever Congress in history that Americans themselves elected, so thanks a lot? He will probably also mention his late-breaking epiphany that ultra-rich people should pay a small amount more in taxes since they seem to be the only ones who’ve managed to crawl out of the hole of the recession, hooray. As for Congress, fewer than 200 of 535 members have agreed to participate in the bipartisan seating plan to Save Decency, probably after hearing some Wall Street Journal maggot declare that sitting next to a member of the opposite political party is a good way to get raped. That last sentence alone is worth a strong starter shot. GIT UR RUM BOTTLES AT THE READY:
Here is what you must do, if:
- Obama uses the words “fair” or “fairness” at any point: pass the bottle around the room so each person gets a swig. Don’t wipe your spit off after each swig, we are SHARING, that is how sharing works.
- John Boehner wears a flashy color of tie that clashes awkwardly with the flag backdrop behind his seat: set a shot of cheap rum on fire before you down it.
- Obama says “middle class” two times in the same sentence: check the fridge for a Budweiser to toast the middle class and realize you don’t have any because you have TASTE, but then realize you have a six-pack of PBR sitting there so no, you don’t. Drink one of those!
- The camera cuts away to Al Franken nodding in approval: get the hiccups.
- Obama talks again this year about giving everyone 350,000 “green jobs” like he means it, which he doesn’t: a shot of absinthe.
- Joe Lieberman falls asleep during the course of the speech: find someone to immediately cut the entire military from the budget before he wakes up.
- Obama points out that he joined Instagram, which is good for Technology: everyone at the party drink a can of PBR and then duct tape the empty cans together to make a hipster hat for the person most likely to mind having his or her hair smell like stale beer in the morning and then take a picture of it with the Lomo-fi filter. Send us the photograph.
- The camera cuts to Lindsey Graham shooting a laser beam stare of death at Kay Hagan across the room for stealing John McCain as her SOTU date: shed two tears in your heart where no one can see them and down a shot of SoCo to heal the pain.
- Obama reminds everyone he “made America more secure” by spending a gajillion dollars to kill the shit out of an aging maniac in Pakistan who was already busy masturbating himself to death: make a toilet-water infused martini with Hendrick’s Gin and drink that, to remember how it felt.
- If/when Wolf Blitzer announces after this thing is over, “It almost sounded like the president was making a little bit of a campaign speech!” like he is the first person who said it: pound a can of beer and smash it into the part of the screen where Wolf Blitzer’s forehead is, then staple a note reading “911 Don’t bother” to your own forehead and pass out. HUZZAH.

May God have mercy on us all.
God bless us, every one!
DRINK!
I'm just going to enjoy Campaign Obama while trying to forget President Obama.
I read that as Champagne Obama. Started early.
I'm glad I don't drink.
I wish I *did* fucking drink, especially with that slimy Brian Wilson oozing on meaningfully about how our Prez has the bully pulpit and haha workers.
How do you survive these things?
Weed.
WHEE!!! Here we go again!
I need a drink after being reminded that the overflowing douchebag Joe Lieberman is still suckling the government teat.
He gets a pension and health care for life after leaving office. Might want to make that drink stronger.
this entire thread is "unamerican".
Drink! also feck, arse, girrrls…
OK, who did you used to be?
Perfect timing for my commute home!
Mic check…
Mic check…
WHERE THE HELL IS THE SPEECH?
I hope he throws the speech away and tries singing some more Al Green.
Iz okey ta eatz pastrami sammiches dring SOTU?
Are you sharing thru the tubez?
oops.
Dunno. How does Pastrami jive with creeping Sharia?
Three cheers for Gabby Giffords.
Yay!
Yay!
Yay!
When I turned on the MSNBC feed, I immediately got a "scary" ad from Americans for Prosperity. I haven't started to drink and I've already vomited.
Best to get it vomiting over with as early as possible.
WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Bring it on!
We need Gabby Giffords here like we need a hole in the head. Too soon?
Wow.
Ran out of beer. Is it OK if I raid the cats' catnip? I only have the spray-on kind (yes, such a product does exist).
Paper bag. Spray. Concentrate. Inhale.
Share&Enjoy.
Here come the clowns! OK, five of 'em anyway.
So glad we can finally listen to an honest, articulate, reasonable, really real family man.
Who has no bull shit about him. That's why they hate him.
And the other thing also,mostly.
I'll will be drinking a toast each time Boner's face turns oranger.
Oh, god I am suffering so much hatred and anger looking at all these noxious old farts of our Congress.
5 out of 9 Nazgûl ain't half bad.
The FLOTUS just floats down the aisle!
This sounds like a recipe for alcohol poisoning.
Sooo bluuue…
Who is that catcalling our beauteous FLOTUS? Shameless louts.
She's got a big butt.
Hey! You watch what you say about my … hmm … that is one hot booteh.
Uh, wut?
Sorry no beer in the house. Maybe I should just drink the cheap wine? Also skipping Blitz entirely and going with Rachel Maddow. I would have watched Keith Olbermann but he has Eliot Whore-Diamonds on and I don't want to lose my dinner.
So Brian Wilson is a no-show again?
He is so Fired.
Why do I just hate Eric Holder?
He gets less done at the office than I do?
My God, John Kerry is ugly. Whose idea was it that he be president? Oh, right, I voted for him. Better Bernie Sanders, though. Bernie for Prez!
That would make me Pretend First Lady.
Hell, Bob Schieffer sez we're gonna have a good time tonite.
Remember his brother was in cahoots with Dubya over that ball club!
Move your ass peppee. It's tequila time
I hope he sings,
Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad.
Ohhh,
Government meets Glee!
"Kelly O'Donnell's in the chamber tonight."
And Santorum's in the chamber pot.
Look! There's Gabby. WOHOO GABBY!
I swear to god Boehner rolled his eyes when Joe Biden was enthusiastically applauding her.
That Awful Fuckstick.
Orange Fuckstick, the new ice cream treat!
FTW.
What should we drink if Obama says, "Tell Newt to fuck and blow me. I'm here to save the country"?
I'll give up drinking if Hopey says that. I'll never trust booze again.
What middle class? didn't it get drowned in some proverbial bathtub? Should be renamed "the have-nots."
"Day-old days ancient Bloody Mary
bastards in a hardcore blue collar bar – - here we sit,
a shot and a beer after another hard earned day /
Dawn comes soon enough for the working class;
It keeps getting sooner or later.
This is the game that moves as you play.." ♫
Cue wingnut "C.P. time" comments…
Hopey!
"Everybody Get Drunk Tonight,
Everybody Blow Chunks Tonight!"
- Wang Chung
or was it Wang Chunks?
Tonight it is.
Wiiiiing Chuuuuuun!
OHHHHH, Cantor behind Barry in the line! One sip of beer and two pukes already. Not off to a good start tonight.
Why would any body want to shake Cantor's paw?
Oh, the blahs are boisterous!
WHo was the white woman trying to eat Barry's ear off the side of his head?
Oily Taintz?
Not enough crazy in her eyes.
Well, Ruth Ginsburg took a bite.
LimeyLizzie?
Nice moment there with Rep. Jackée Harry.
Hey, do you know who else had a deep voice yet sang falsetto?
Lenny Kravitz?
It sure is refreshing to see those fuckers laughing it up and having such a good time while they destroy America.
Rachel misses Michele "Crazy Eyes" Bachmann?
What, playing "Grab-ass" with Bush? I found that infuriating.
*hhhuuuggg*
Scalia and Thomas didn't show??? Jeez.
They aren't so hot on tradition or the Constitution.
And my money's on Thomas to be the one who yells something inappropriate this year.
Like what, N*****?
I'm sure they're at something much more important. Like a fundraser or a Koch- sponsered meeting
1st lady is Hawt. Tonite.
Fersure!
And EVERY nite. That Barry is a happy man, just look at him smile. He's gettin' plenty, doods.
Nice fucking introduction, Speaker Brokaw.
Awwww, Gabby making a little wave with her hand. I want to hug her. Really.
Me too.
Seriously
Boner started it off with a big-assed lie.
BURRRRRRN on Osama bin Laden!!!!
Hopey taking credit for things he's done? Amazing.
THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE!
Jesus Boner looks fucked up.
Can someone get Joe Biden a Ricola?
"Imagine if we could follow their example."
I'm lookin' at YOU, Congress.
SHIT! My laundry!
Let me know if I miss anything, you guys…
(Hahaha!)
Mint RMoney will do your laundry for you.
Can I tweet that? PLEEZ?
They're not consumed with personal ambition??? The Joint Chiefs are holding themselves to keep from falling on the floor laughing.
"We can do this!" New campaign slogan?
"…and I was born in AMERICA, Motherfuckers!"
Red tie, blue tie, it's opposite day in DC!
Tell it, Barry!
Oh, fuck, Hopey is REALLY hitting his stride now, and the Republiborg is booing.
Boner Swallows Tongue.
I wish.
Boo! Fair rules!
They're not booing, they're saying Newwwwwttttt!
Same dif
"American Values" Better campaign slogan and FU to Republican Family Values.
That Bush fellow. Remember him?
AAAHH There's Twiki!!
"Those are the facts"
Yeah, like that makes any impression on Repukelicans.
Yay! Everything is going to be alright!
Slap 'em Barry. Hard.
Again.
WHOA! Hopey's KICKIN' ASS! I will FIGHT, he sez. NO WE WILL NOT GO BACK. Hell, no, we won't go.
I think I just heard one of the South Carolina delegation.
No, that was just a Boehner beer fart.
Fight obstruction with action? Commie!
He said "American Values" again. Are the bumper stickers printed yet?
Pow! He lands one on Mitt, with "some even say we should have let (GM) collapse".
Today, General Motors is back on top as the world's Number one Automaker!
Thanks Mitt!
Government Motors!
Holy jeebus who is that ancient lizard who keeps likcing his lips and rolling his eyes at teh hot blondes?
John McCain.
I know it wasn't McCAncient, who's much more into Hopey's ass anyway. Remember that hideous shot of him sticking out his tongue and grabbing at Obama's ass?
John Dingell
You look at some of these faces and you think, "there must be more than 7 deadly sins."
I'm not sure why there's no growth in your p ness because of this. Excellent. If I was going to remember anything from tonight, I'd use this line shamelessly.
Skeletor sure does clean up nice, and he seems happy about something.
I thought we were bringing sexy back, not manufacturing.
Who punched the shit out of Kerry?
He had some kind of sports accident. The unspeakable Beck was chortling about it today, because that's how he rolls.
Golly, it would just be a shame if Beck fell right on his Nutz. I wouldn't laugh.
Windsurfing? Polo?
Boner is ACTUALLY FROWNING about bringing American jobs back to America!
Can'tor seems constipated at the thought.
I demand to steal "Can'tor" for future mockage!
OOF!
Still hurts.
Ooh, Kantor's got his game face on. My lord, you couldn't find a bigger ladyboy this side of Patpong Road.
And just *what* would you know about Patpong Road, young man?
i'm so remembering that.
Cantor is playing freeze tag with himself.
Boo to lead toys for babies!
"Openings". Huh huh huh, huh huh
Semen!
See, Men?
Have these employers that can't find skilled workers tried Craigslist? Yeah, I didn't think so.
Make getting a Job a condition for receiving Unemployment!
And take a urine test every day!!
Twice! and pay for it yourself.
A Great Teacher can become your First Wife!
What?
If Boehner keeps licking his lips he is going to be a giant chap.
Boner: you are getting sleepy…
I guess McCain is too plastered or pissed off to stand up for Immigration Reform?
Naturally. Particularly since it was his idea.
Must. Not. Applaud. What. I. Proposed.
Biden is pretty reserved tonight. He usually acts like a parent watching a precocious five year old while Obama speaks. I can almost hear him saying, "Yeah, yeah, more words.."
I think he's sick. Cold or something.
Jobs for Fetuses! If they want them.
Kick everyone's ass who didn't stand for equal pay for equal work. I am pretty sure they have wives, sisters, daughters or at very least mothers.
What, this crowd? Who you kidding?
Drill, baby drill!
I'd purely love to play High-Stakes Poker with John Boehner.
McTurtle!
Alternative energy. Biggest applause of the night.
How about all that Gas sitting behind you?
Public Research WOOHOO!!
Don't cry, Brian Witterby!
Jeez, dood, don't be so mean. Poor guy's probly all overwhelmed.
POTUS: "We don't have to choose between energy and the environment."
Republicans: "Yes We Do! Yes We Do! Yes We Do!
Is that Steven Cho? Yeah!!
No more tax breaks for oil? That's it, he's fuxxored.
I'm terrified right now. Those people won't go away quietly.
GO FOR IT BARRY!! CLEAN ENERGY!! GET THINGS DONE!!
Man, I want to lease some land to a clean energy provider so bad, you guys!
He keeps telling Congress to do shit. Has no one told him they don't do shit?
And what is the Navy going to do with all that power, Tron suits for Seal Team 6?
Bionic mercenaries.
Hilz lookin' tired.
She's been working hard. She done good, too. Anyone notice how Burma's coming around? That's pretty fucking impressive, after decades of a hideously repressive military dictatorship.
Barry's gonna be busy signing all of these executive orders! You go, Girl!!!!
Nation Building at Home!
*Thunderous Applause*
Boner's Twitching.
Another kick to mitten's 'nads on housing bottoming out.
Geithner looks downright pained.
I thought so too.
POTUS: Help homeowners Refinance.
Republicans: Oh Shit, the economy's going to improve!!
Rules Make The Free Market Work Better.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. For Finally Saying That.
Spilled milk groaner
I'm starting to think he isn't going to sing.
Holy cow, less regulation!
Mercury, bitches!
Gulf Oil Spill Assholes. Remember?
He's gonna have to apologize to BP for that.
Barry is really taking the Lash to the Republicans tonight.
Cordray! Hooray!!
Financial Crimes Unit? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa
I thought that was Goldman Sachs.
Steve Schwarzman haz a sad.
Can't or smiles like he already has an evil plan ready for the payroll tax
Payroll tax cut even got a laugh out of Dixie Jew.
Warren Buffet's Secretary. DRINK!!
Wow, you really do start to look like your boss after years together.
Crazy talk, we can have our millionaire cake and eat them too.
Who is wear sequins to SOTU?
Marcus?
An America Built to Last = Bumper Sticker
Here we go…DEBT CEILING DEBATE FIASCO Knife. Congress. Twist.
Corrosive Effects of Money in Politics! Send me a bill!
Is that Booing?!?
Woohoo!!!!! Both Sides Are To Blame gave me a bingo!
"Lower the temperature in this town"
Have you learned Nothing in the last 3 years?
Whoa, whoa, whoa there… You were talking about fair competition? NFW dude
He believes what Abe believed in ….burning Atlanta?
Don't push him.
Or at least not as far as Ayman al-Zawahiri or Osama bin Laden.
"Human Dignity Cannot be Denied"
Except in this town.
Cantor is such a Jackalweasel.
"Anyone who says that America is in decline doesn't know what they're talking about, be-otch!"
This is one helluva SOTU.
How so? Looks like the usual checklist of conservative-to-moderate Republican initiatives with a double helping of militarism.
Mitch Daniels has to rebut This?
BWA Ha ha ha!
Anyone else like me not knowing there's been like 2 other whole posts? Crap.
Not the first time this has happened to me.
Hah, well, extra snark to mine later.
It *always* happens to me. You thought I was joking when I said I'm always late to the party?
Funny how the camera hits the man with the fruit salad on his chest when Hopey says ghey. Not…planned..at….all.
Is he a vampire? Shine a light on Mitch Daniels. Does he sparkle?
Man, there was a whole 'nother, separate comments-only liveblog here, under the main one; it's taking a while to get through the whole thing, still only halfway through, but you guys were really funny too.
On a lighter note, a sea shell reportedly held Gabby up to his ear and reported that he could hear the ocean….Too soon?
And I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
