URGENT NEWS ALERT: VodkaPundit Will Drunkblog SOTU Tonight

Posted on | January 27, 2010 | 18 Comments

Well, that’s not exactly news, really, since he’s been doing it for years and never blogs completely sober:

 I realized I’d been watching these damn things since 1980. And that the time for games was over. And that the only way I was going to get through another one, sanity intact, was to start drinking early and keep drinking often.

During the Democratic National Convention last year, I actually had the opportunity to watch the master at work and was amazed by how much booze he can put away. It’s like he’s got a genetically altered mutant super-liver or something.

UPDATE: VodkaPundit has chosen Grey Goose vodka for this evening’s performance. He’s going to need it, based on the advance text:

We face more than a deficit of dollars right now. We face a deficit of trust.

Good God. Is this a presidential address or a Hallmark greeting card?

OTHER SOTU LIVEBLOGS:

9:10 P.M. — “Thank you! Thank you very much!” He’s starting. I’m told the prepared text is more than 7,000 words. I’m guessing it won’t end before 9:30 p.m.

PREVIOUSLY: Michelle Malkin reports Joe Wilson will be the first member of Congress to answer a State of the Union address with a live video post from his Facebook page., which inspires Conservative Lesbian Cynthia Yockey:

How freakin’ AWESOME would it be if each and every one of them were on his or her Twitter or Facebook account liveblogging their reactions? OMG! . . .
I’m planning to live blog the SOTU tonight at Newsreal.

Speaking of lesbians — but entirely unrelated to the State of the Union — how about this bizarre news?

Days after D.C. Superior Court Magistrate Judge Janet Albert broke up with her girlfriend, the judge found her former companion unconscious in her attic, above her bedroom, with some food and an ice bucket fashioned into a makeshift toilet, authorities say.
Investigators said Taylar Nuevelle had climbed into the attic through a door in Albert’s bedroom closet and had been there for almost 24 hours, listening to Albert’s telephone pleas to friends for help.
Now, Nuevelle is on trial on charges of burglary, unlawful entry and stalking. Prosecutors allege that she began stalking Albert and harassing with her with hundreds of phone calls, threatening e-mails and text messages after the two ended their year-long relationship in 2008. She faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

Lesbian domestic violence. I’m waiting to see how feminists manage to blame this one on the oppressive patriarchy.

UPDATE II: Jonn Edwards’ sham marriage ends in “separation,” probably because actually divorcing a wealthy trial lawyer is a risky proposition.

The thing about Edwards is, he’s so bogus it’s hard to tell where the merely phony ends and the completely laughable bullshit begins. Anybody who believes a word John Edwards says is as stupid as Amanda Marcotte, who is world-class stupid.

    Stalking and phone harassment comprise one of the stages of grief when lesbian relationships end — why do I have to explain this? Think of it as “hell has no fury like a LESBIAN scorned,” because it is two orders of magnitude more than the fury of a straight woman scorned. Mathematically.

    Oh, and just to be clear — I am urging REPUBLICAN members of Congress to liveblog the SOTU. On the down side, we won’t get to see Obama’s face when they call him a liar. But on the upside — well, it’s practically all upside.

    Michael Steele — why do I have to keep doing your job for you?

    Well, John Edwards just shows that marriage is outdated and anti-woman. Although I would consider it if I could marry someone rich and then take their money. I would consider debasing myself to do that. That said I hope Elizabeth Edwards socks him in the divorce.

    It was all about him, trying to woo people back to the love, campaigning is such hard work, and you just don’t see how I do it all for you, I love you…. almost Evita like

    They are illusions
    They are not the solutions they promised to be
    The answer was here all the time
    I love you and hope you love me

    It sure as shit wasn’t about the STATE OF THE UNION. It was pleading.
