Thirsty Thursday Reader

I don't have much time for a full length reader right now. I haven't had much time to get online due to a sick child and no sleep (yeah me). I did think this was a funny link, and if you all enjoy drinking games and politics (it's like, yea, my favorite past time), then you should really play this game. Thanks to Feministing for the rules...

Watching campaign coverage can be trying. Especially when the talking heads seem hell-bent on relying on racist and sexist sound-bites in lieu of substantive commentary. So to get your though the hard times, we proudly present ....

The Privileged Political Pundit Drinking Game

• Drink anytime someone refers to Clinton's teary moment in NH as "crying," "sobbing," "weepy," or "contrived."
• Take a drink for every "magical negro" reference to Obama.
• Take one drink anytime someone calls Clinton "shrill" or "screechy."
• Chug one whenever you hear of, see, or read Maureen Dowd. Always.
• Two drinks anytime anyone expresses the sentiment that Edwards is at a disadvantage because he isn't black or female.
• Take a shot when a pundit refers to Clinton as (or implies she is) a nagging bitch or cackling witch.
• Drink for any lamenting that white-dude voters are being ignored.
• Take a healthy gulp every time someone describes Obama as "clean" or "articulate."
• Take two shots whenever someone implies that women only vote with their vaginas.
• Warning: Do not watch Chris Matthews under any circumstances--doing so could induce alcohol poisoning.
