If you haven’t read this, I highly suggest reading this. It’s a special piece spread over three days revealing the machinery behind the Democratic Party. Those who knew that Big Business and Big Government are working together against the people, you won’t be surprised. But those who haven’t been convinced, you’ll find this informative (hopefully).

Take one shot every time Obama says “Let me be clear.” or “Make no mistake.”
Take one shot every time there is a call for “bipartisanship”.
Take two shots every time Biden claps at random times.
Any time “rhetoric” or “civility” is mentioned, drink all of the alcohol in the house.
