SOTU drinking game: One shot after each time Obama says something socialist. If you’re confused, it’s at the end of every sentence.

If Obama wants to draw a stark contrast between himself and Gingrich tonight, he should do the State of the Union shirtless.

Pourmecoffee:
Whenever they show Eric Cantor, all of my plants die and I feel sad inside.
The Illuminati:
As Obama speaks on jobs moving overseas, the “Made in China” sticker on his American Flag Lapel Pin is starting to show.
