Just in time for the Holidays: The Yellow Dog Blog has developed a diversion to help all of us normal people to survive the next 11 months of the Republican occupation of the Capitol. When you find yourself expose to GOP spin, follow these instructions as needed (at least) until the congressional elections in November 2006:
1. Take a giant swig of your drink every time a Bush administration official says anything having to do with GOP corruption is “part of an ongoing investigation.”
2. Down a shot of Rumpleminze every time a Republican calls for an “up or down vote” on a judicial nominee. Warning: eliminate this component of game if Alito confirmations have begun.
3. Take a very small sip of your beverage every time you hear the phrase “Iraq is the central front in the war on terror.” You’ll hear this one a lot, so pace yourself.
4. If you notice any Republican saying “retreat and defeat” and/or “cut and run” take a good, long drink of water. This will keep you hydrated as you’ll hear these all night.
5. Take a stiff belt of Jack Daniels every time you hear a member of the GOP refer to the “liberal Democrats in Congress” or to Democrats as “the party of no ideas.” Also, pop an OxyContin or two in honor of Rush Limbaugh.
