Let's Do This Here Debate, Whatcha say?

Football is back, there's a cool nip in the air, and just a few short hours from now millions of expectant viewers will tune in hoping to see a train wreck. That must mean it's time for another drinking-based VP debate viewing.

Now I imagine Joe Biden's a good enough guy. But isn't it amazing that a man known for the occasional gaff isn't the one everyone is salivating to hear? For that reason, our buzz words will be Palincentric (sounds like a prehistoric epoch). We at the Bunker make no claim to be either fair or balanced. We just go for the easy, stiletto-clad laugh. And the escapades of Sarah of the Great White North have provided enough low-hanging fruit to feed every man, woman, and child in her state for a week. You have to admit that she brings much of the scorn on herself with all the “my town is smaller than your town” sanctimony and “cavemen raced dinosaurs” controversies. You know what they say about people in glass igloos, Sarah.

Anyhow the potential drinking words are obvious, and I'm sure are being echoed across the blogosphere by countless compatriots as we speak: moose, lipstick, helluva, hockey, small-town values, Washington elite, evildoers, ya know. Or feel free to compose your own list, ours is just an advisory service. But these jokes are already so overused I'm almost too embarrassed to print them. Such is the double-edged sword of such easily reached fruit. So in the interests of sport, I say we up the ante to include any of Marge's quotes from Fargo (script), even if it's something as simple as "oh yah?". Any of these command you to take no fewer than three drinks. And if by some miraculous crossing of the planets she somehow says "That must be your friend in the wood chipper", every drop in the house must be drained.

I can feel Admiral Stockdale turning in his grave.
