Oh! That explains why he rambled on and on and didn’t say much of anything. Most people when they are tired, know when to sit down and shut up, especially when the entire country is watching.
reminds me of the joke:
I never knew he drank until I saw him sober...
Got a bad ice cube
He certainly did not seem drunk to me, except on the liberals’ lies.
I have to really wonder about people who see that tape and conclude he was drunk. It makes no sense at all to me.
I’ve seen bums pushing shopping carts making more coherent rants. The guy was stewed.
I was 7 feet away from Baucus during a campaign speech at a private fundraiser once. He had not been drinking, because I watched him arrive and eat dinner. He sounds like this all the time.
Watch the video.
Take your choice: Drunk or Stupid?
“YOU LIE!”
Maybe not. In the liberal lexicon Baucus may not have been drunk. He may have simply been overserved.
Glad to see someone else knows what “drunk” really looks like. It’s funny, actually. I’d never have thought Freepers would see “drunk” when a person was just a sore loser. Pretty funny (to me, anyway).
I watched the video - The Democommie Senator was, indeed, very angry. Also, drunk as a sailor on a Friday night after a six month cruise.
It’s good this is all over the media. Just like how he put his g/f on the government payroll.... I love sarcasm.
Anyway, even if he were to be driven from office over either of these events, the Demo governor would replace him with another Dem anyway. If only Gov Racicot had run for the Senate in ‘02. We might have been rid of Baucus.
Who cares if he was drunk or not. He acted like a buffoon.
It’s clear that a lot of the posters on this thread have no idea what Senate speeches usually sound like. Why are you so clueless about the melodrama that is always displayed? There is no excuse for this; the result is that you look like abject fools, running after phantoms that don’t exist.
“Where’s the courage”? It’s obvious his is in the bottle...
Who the hell *is* zennie62?
Just a screen name, that’s who.
If Baucus wasn’t drunk, he imitated a drunk very well. (Immitation is the sincerest of flattery!) I don’t believe he would have been legal to get behind a wheel.
As tired and angry as a newt!
He wasn’t drunk. He’s like this cold sober and yet the people of Montana keep electing him.
Hear! Hear! THE MAN!
