Everyone should contribute one rule. Here's mine:
Take a swig when a politician says "The American People."
The phrase "The American People" is my least favorite form of political pandering. When a politician starts by talking about The American People, my eyes always start to glaze over.
EDIT: Swig!
That seems increasingly likely with social media PR featuring him at jury duty this week, chumming it up with the working class.
Take a drink every time the word "socialist" is used.
"I don't think you heard me. Your having a rough night." -Donald Trump making Rand Paul look like a child.
Yeah I was just telling my girlfriend that I think Paul's having a bad night. I'm actually disappointed. I'm not a right libertarian, but I wouldn't mind having a republican candidate who was against the drug war, foreign intervention, NSA surveillance, etc. I mean they all attack social programs anyway.
Yeah, I sincerely think Trump will be the nominee. My brother thinks he's in cahoots with the Clinton's.
I've had the same suspicion, although I somewhat doubt he actually wants to be the nominee. I think he wants to shed light on how ridiculous the whole thing (the election process) is. I'm one of probably four people in the US who actually respects Trump more since he entered this race (although the bar was pretty low to begin with).
You can make that 5 people. Vox is right, he is impossible to embaress which gives him an invincibility almost unseen in nature and completely non-existent in politics. Edit: the most pertinent exchange of the night: TRUMP: You better believe it... I will tell you that our system is broken. I gave to many people. Before this, before two months ago, I was a businessman. I give to everybody. When they call, I give. And you know what? When I need something from them, two years later, three years later, I call them. They are there for me. And that's a broken system. Q: So what did you get from Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi? TRUMP: I'll tell you what. With Hillary Clinton, I said, be at my wedding and she came to my wedding. You know why? She had no choice! Because I gave.Q: You've also supported a host of other liberal policies, you've also donated to several Democratic candidates, Hillary Clinton included, Nancy Pelosi. You explained away those donations saying you did that to get business related favors. And you said recently, quote, when you give, they do whatever the hell you want them to do.
I didn't watch the debate, but from the clips they played on Morning Edition, it seemed like Fox was being fed some of the questions by the RNC. Why would they ever ask anyone to pledge allegiance to the Party? WTF is this, communist Russia?Fox News threw everything they had at him, they did it on national television, and he didn't flinch.
Trump knows what American's want to see. The guy had a highly successful reality TV show. I haven't watched FOX News in years, but I watched last night. Its amazing to me the level to which they have clearly picked their favorites. I watched "spin alley" for about 5 minutes post debate. Their assessment was that Trump did "alright," but that he was rude to Megan Kelly and that this was "unacceptable." Last thing FOX wants is Trump. He's not a predictable bed-fellow. The best question came from someone asking if "God has told them what their first action as president should be?" -What the fuck? Seriously? Also, my brother and I both were amazed that a question asking whether candidates would support abortions for people that were raped or were victims of incest, was asked or is even a question in this day and age. What if any of their daughters were raped and were impregnated by the scumbag? You think... maybe their tune would change? -Disgusting. How did the GOP end up here? How are my options as a voter so incredibly shitty?
That's pretty great, haha. I hope we at Hubski know our limits, though.“You simply can’t drink every time one of these guys says something silly,”
That's the spirit! I can see it now: "My immigrant family came to this country fleeing the thug Fidel Castro's communist regime in 1959, er, I mean 1956" takes swig of water
I just read that Eat24 is giving away a taco (well a 5 dollar coupon) every time Trump says Mexican. Are we IRCing or 'live' chatting in this thread?
If Donald Trump's hair suffers a severe mishap due to impassioned ranting , shotgun a beer.
They weren't even that bad with it today, honestly. My favorite is when they say stuff like "The American People know better than that, Obama/Bush/Trump! The American People are smarter than that! The American People are resilient!" etc, etc, etc. It's the pandering use that really bothers me and cracks me up.

Take a drink if Scott Walker refers to spurring 100,000+ person protests as a positive thing.
invoking 9/11: finished the whole liquor cabinet
Take a drink every time the word "liberal" is used. That might get you killed if you take that to heart.
I'm pregnant but get the sense I could get drunk on Kaliber playing one of these.
