Might as well hand over your uterus now

So the muthafreakin' bastards in the Senate confirmed Alito 58-42. And apparently there are some senators who voted for cloture but voted against Alito's confirmation. Compare the votes here. Slippery political maneuvering, I see. Dave at Seeing the Forest shares this same opinion: How the hell an you vote against the filibuster, then vote against the nomination? Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Dubya's State of the Union address is on tonight. I'll probably watch, because I'm nursing a bad back and will have nothing else to do. If I weren't on Vitamin V right now, I'd totally turn it into a drinking game: Every time Dubya mentions "9/11," take a shot/drink of your choice. Catherine at Povertybarn comes up with another one:

Every time Georgie says "freedom" in his sad State he has made of this Union Speech tonight, you must take a shot of something gross because let's face it he leaves a sour taste in all our mouths and hearts.

By the end of the address, you'll feel about as fucked up as this country is going to be. Or already is. Dubya may as well show up on stage with another "Mission Accomplished" banner hanging in the background.
