Bob Newhart Drinking Game---Karine Jean-Pierre Version

January 24, 2023, 02:43 PM

Many of us remember the popular party game where any time a character on the Bob Newhart show said, "Hi, Bob!" everybody had to take a sip of their alcoholic beverage.

Watching the White House briefings these days, I think the game should be revived.

The rules are simple: Each time Karine Jean-Pierre uses one of the following phrases (including a close form), everyone watching has to take a drink:

"I would refer you to my colleagues at the Department of Justice (or White House Counsel's office)."

"This President is doing everything he can to (fill in the blank)."

"I'm not going to comment from here on that."

"He has made this a priority from day one."

""We don't have anything to share on that right now."

Any sentence that includes the term "Executive Action."

“We’ve been perfectly clear…”

"Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein

I can't stand to watch Karine Jean-Pierre...
But I will take a drink.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

"The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth."

Simply "Clear" There's a lot of praises that go along with that.
Let me be Clear
I've been Clear
The president's been Clear
I want to be Clear

And on an on. Take that out of her vocabulary and she could not speak... Oh wait, the presupposes she can actually articulate something.

Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves.

I’ll give her this, she’s been very transparent about her obfuscation.

I try not to be too hard on her. After all, look at what she has to work with.

The drinking needs to be done by that diversity hire, that empty vessel.

Get about 8 glasses of wine in her and turn her loose at a briefing, and the TRUTH would come popping out of her mouth.

Today that was used so often you'd need to make a run to the liquor store to keep up!

Hell if you just limited it to every “Ummm” or “uhhh”. You’d be alcohol poisoned within 5 minutes.

Peppermint patty was a good liar. This gal Kringe Jean Pierre is just not good at her job or lying and is too much of a dolt to make up stuff on the spot like Patty was
