I've been neglecting our mandate: drinking rules for the State of the Union tonight. (Incidentally, Wonkette herself will be live-blogging the SOTU tonight. You know, for those of you who don't have TV, radio, or high-speed internet. Oh and also she'll be nude. I think. Or maybe she said lewd, I wasn't really listening.)
As always, if you haven't started drinking already, you're never gonna win. Also, please join us in drinking the Purple Finger, which is 1 part cassis, 1 part grenadine, and 1 part vodka. Freedom never tasted so sickly sweetbut you're warned, the hangover is a bitch.
