A beverage recipe for tonight’s debate

As always, my advice for tonight’s debate is to lower your expectations.
And: Have a stiff drink handy.
Happily, a reader in Denver e-mailed the perfect recipe.
I’m going to go out and buy the ingredients ASAP:
I am a bartender in the Hotel Teatro, Denver Colorado. I read you a lot and I invented a drink for you, I call it the ACORN. Ingredients are Amaretto, Cranberry, Orange Juice, Rum and Nutmeg. ACORN! Shake it up serve as a martini. Don’t know if you drink but if you do, enjoy! It tastes pretty good.
Bottoms up!

in the final stages of this misbegotten campaign there’s just two kinds of people.
Those that love whiskey, and those that need to learn to love whiskey.
Philippines’ Tanduay rum ($2 per liter) and Cola. Lot’s of ice!

There is always black tar heroin…. price should come down nicely since the border will be even wider open than it is now. Hell it probably won’t even be illegal after the Dems get finished.
There’s not a strong enough drink on the planet to stomach another debate hosted by the MSM. Another round of useless questions would put the energizer bunny in a coma.
Uh, uh..
Youtube won’t let me post the URL (which is “malformed”).
Go to Youtube and search for:
“Stuttering Barry”
How about some warm, curdled milk with floaties. Same ingredients the Dems serve up all the time.
What I still cannot understand is how, how did McCain get the nomination in the first place? Who voted for him? Why? And why are those who gave him the nomination surprised now by his campaign and how horrible he has been? He has never been a conservative, ever! I swear this is Bob Dole redux!
I think it’s time to start a CONSERVATIVEparty, to hell with Republicans. Un-be-lievable!!
I get what you’re saying. I just thought he was a slightly rude. Rightly or wrongly he has the grumpy old man reputation, and I think he’d be wise to avoid perpetuating it. I should add that in the first debate he refused to look at Obama. Small things like this effect viewers on a psychological level. History shows us that these things can have an impact:
Bush I- looking at his watch.
Gore- sighing in a dismissive manner.
Obama- “you’re likeable enough Hillary”
The small stuff factors into the overall experience.IMHO Oh well, happy viewing.
I haven’t had a drink since 1996 but I remember my favorite recipe. I’ve never tried Tanduay rum from Philippines but I’m sure it will work just fine. I used to use Barcadi myself. I’d fill a glass with Barcadi…..usually 151, and add a splash of coke for color and after a few of those I didn’t care who was president. I also used to drink beer until it got to the point it just wasn’t strong enough and my very favorite was San Migal and it was made in Philippines too. I do however thank God for taking that ugly habit from me. If you can drink responsibly, more power to you but my brakes didn’t work good at all. Enjoy the debate tonight people and please pray for McCain/Palin!!!
Here’s the recipe for an ACORN!
Alcohol
Crack
Obama
Roofies
Nonsense
I have a feelin’ I’ll be feelin’ no pain about 8:30 PM…I just hope I’m not cryin’.
If this election goes the way everyone is saying and Barry wins, does this mean the USA is becoming an ACORN Republic?
More like a Banana Republic . . . like Kenya.
And, no, that wasn’t meant to sound racist!
Captain and Coke in the left hand, White Russian in the right. Repeat for the rest of the evening.
Of course, maybe that White Russian should be in my left hand…
Is it really legal to vote while intoxicated?
While brainwashed by commies, while moonbat-delusional, yes; but can you vote while drunk?
I wonder what the laws are on that.

LOL…be a short nite for you, good book?
Damn skippy! I’ll grab my copy of Little House in the Big Woods” and go to my happy place.
Sounds good. I’m going to follow your lead, I have everything except the cranberry juice. Cheers!
WHITE RUSSIAN??? How racist!!!! The term White Russian should be thrown into a Black Hole……..Oops! Never mind.
Lol, CoffeeGuzzler!
I suppose I could have some Black Russians too, just to prove how open-minded and tolerant of different kinds of booze I am.
sighh…but not really…on the wagon again…consarn it…stupid alcoholism…they sure would be yummy though…
I gotta go to a different thread…
White Russians, black holes . . . I guess in order not to offend anybody we’ll have to say “Rainbow Russians” and “Rainbow holes”–ah, heck, that offends the GLBT people! I guess it’ll have to be “Non-color specific Russians” and “Non-color specific holes.”
Curses! Its school play night….
Its a tough decision as to which one will be more entertaining.
Hmmm, guess I will go ahead and start early tonight. Because right after the play, its Guitar Hero Wednesday at the local brew pub!
We’ll start easy with Bloody Marys and move up to Long Islands as the night progresses. I’ll have the barkeep sprinkle some nutmeg in honor of the Hotel Teatro – conveniently located across from the Denver Center for Performing Arts, 1100 Fourteenth Street Denver, CO. Stop in and say Hey!!
Ahh, San Migals…. made with formaldehyde and every batch is a different consistency..
If I hear him utter even ONE “my friends” I will throw up. I seriously HOPE that his staff has told him that it is overkill!
If he blows it tonight, we are DOOMED.
Watch the stock market tank tomorrow for certain.
When Obama starts uhhhhhs……ands…..I will mute him.
He even hears this about the 30 million already here, “don’t let them go back.”
I was thinking tonight I would just keep to gin, but if it starts spiraling out of control, I may be inclined to start using crack.
Then, I would become a grass roots community organizer and register everyone in the metrophoenix area as Secessionist Party Members.
Might be a good start at a new venue.
Just Newcastle over here.
The MSM has been asking stupid asinine questions since the 1980′s. I would fall over if one of the asked a pertinant intelligent question. I guess it is above their paygrade.
Does blogging cause drinking or does drinking cause blogging?
Or do Rinos and Pinkos cause blogging and drinking?
mmmmmmm Sam MaGoo!
Uncle Sam wouldn’t send me to the Philippines no matter how hard I tried (My uncle was a missionary on Mindinao for 60+ years and I wanted to meet him) but just about everywhere in the world I found San Miguel. The best was in Spain.
I don’t drink anymore, but maybe one San Miguel for old times sakes… and a memory of those Senorittas…
You should add a sprig of arugula.
Coffee and pumpkin pie schnapps here. Chilly tonight.
You failed to mention: this cocktail is meant to be taken like an enema, to prepare you for the forthcoming messiah
presidencycoronation and beyond.All Hail ObaMeinFuhrer!
Let the Kennedy jokes begin!
do you know where McInsane staands on this issue?
S P E C I A L – R E P O R T ! ! !
I just asked our local bartender at Tuscany Square (Neshannock Township, PA) to mix the above aforementioned drink, Acorn Martini. Verdict: Excellent, highly recommended.
Watching Dick Morris on Fox in O’Smelly’s show…can we have him pinch hit for McCain???? PLEASE!?!?!?!
Oh…and coffeeguzzler …congratulations on 12+ years.
Thanks for taking one for the team and trying it out!
I don’t think any drink will get the taste of a crap sandwich 2.0 out of my mouth, perhaps grain alcohol with a Listerine chaser.
Pepto Bismal is just another word for the CodePink drink
Seriously, it was really good. Many thanks to the bartender at Hotel Teatro and Michelle for sharing! This one is a keeper.

I seem to remember an old country song that goes something like this:
…but the whiskey ain’t workin’ anymore.
A friend, when the subject of watching this debate was raised, said she’d rather drink Draino.
Well, Michelle how’s the ACORN?
Thanks but I’ve got to give credit where credit is due and the credit belongs to God. I’ve got a feeling you understand. Take care TexasEngineer.
