Suggestions for VP Debate Drinking Party: Need some Palinisms
We are hosting a small get-together this evening and need some suggestions for Palinisms to get the shots going! The only ones that I can think of are:

'In What Respect?'
'Russia'
'Putin'

Please help! Thanks! :D

20. "Thanks but no thanks!" (on the bridge to nowhere)
She WILL try to use this... AGAIN; but she'll be lucky if Ifill and/or Biden don't put it (and her) away once and for all.

Edited on Thu Oct-02-08 11:47 AM by Clio the Leo
.... alcohol poisoning. It's possible that we could all drink ourselves to death if we take a hit for every gaffe. Maybe we should limit ourselves to every other or every third. ;)

7. Every time she drops the letter "g" from the end of a word.
Examples: "keepin' ya safe," "workin' for YOU," etc.

23. That alone would have you flat out drunk in 5 minutes!
I find it to be the most annoying thing about her speech. It comes across as totally fake 'folksy' to me. When I listen to her I just want to slap her.

29. "by finding efficiencies in agencies"
this is the mantra she used to respond to Charlie's question about how could they cut taxes more and at the same time the deficit.
It bugged the hell out me.

31. Every time she makes a strong statement, like "All of them" (referring to what she reads)....
and qualifies that statement with air-filling gibberish, like this:
A specific magazine you've read?
"All of them ... ANY of them THAT have come across my desk OVER all the years"

Or whenever she reverts into passive voice.
"There are man's activities that can be contributed to the issues that we're dealing with now."


Or whenever she says "As a mayor and as a governor and as a vice president if I'm so privileged to serve this great country...."

33. South Florida Sun Sentinel as some suggestions
http://www.sun-sentinel.com/entertainment/sfl-1002-debate-palin-biden,0,369432.story

The Guidelines:

Assign 1 point or direct guests to take one sip of their drink

How to Earn Points:

Each time Gov. Sarah Palin:

• Wags her finger

• Uses cutesy quips

• Rambles without answering the question

• Talks about hunting moose

• Mentions Alaska's proximity to Russia

36. Her use of 'Great' bugs the crap out of me...
As in "The great history of the United States..", "Many great Americans..".. she uses Great as an adjective whenever she is stumped.

Watch for it so it can bug you too!

39. Here's a whole VP drinking game
VP Debate Drinking Game

The following is partly derived from a post on www.associatedcontent.com:

Every time Palin displays how hopelessly out of touch she is, drink a white russian.

Everytime Palin says Maverick, Small-Town Values or Reformer, take a chug of Moosehead.

Everytime she says the name of the moderator (Gwen), empty your glass.

If she utters a coherent sentence (i.e., contains a noun and a verb and a minimal logical connection),
drink two chugs of Moosehead.

When she talks about her new friend Henry Kissinger, drink a Secret Cambodian Invasion.

When she explains how being the part-time mayor of a town of 7,000 people (even though she hired a full-time city
manager) counts as executive experience, drink a Dukes of Hazard with Snow.

Whenever Biden says something Obama wishes he didn't, drink a Shut the Hell Up.

If you feel about to crawl up into a fetal position under the bar, in fear of a President Palin,
finish a bottle of Yukon Jack.

---

By the way, on youtube.com today, 7 of the 12 most viewed videos in the world are about Palin.
All the copies of her swimsuit pageant in high heels at the Miss Alaska pageant were removed because of a copyright claim, or that would also be on the list.

40. You know, I can't even remember Palinisms
Edited on Thu Oct-02-08 01:03 PM by Blue_In_AK
because everything coming out of her mouth since her selection has been McCainisms, or at least what McCain and his henchmen have wanted her to say. I don't recognize this person, and I hope she gets fileted like a salmon.
