I Was Drunk

One of the hottest YouTube videos this week is Senator Max Baucus (D-Mont) delivering a speech on the Senate floor. This speech allegedly was made sometime during the Senate debate on health care.

Mr. Baucus appears to be drunk.

Some of his defenders say he was ‘exhausted,’ from his non-stop battle championing health care reform. Others claim the video is a forgery or ‘taken out of context.’

I think the video is a brilliant ploy on Mr. Baucus’ part.

Sooner or later Mr. Baucus and all Democrat senators are going to be asked by their constituents, “Why in hell did you ever vote for this outrageous piece of shit?”

There are four possible answers:

  1. I was taken in by the wry humor and charisma of Harry Reid.
  2. I was seduced by Nancy Pelosi.
  3. I’m a fucking moron.
  4. I was drunk.

I think #4 will resonate well with the ranchers and independent thinkers of Big Sky Country who know that sometimes a fifth of Jack is the best answer to a conundrum.
