The Fox News drinking game

The Fox News drinking game
Ok, so, everyone knows how drinking games work, right? This is the Fox News drinking game. These are the rules so far (but if anyone wants to add onto the rules, feel free to give suggestions).

Take a drink whenever they:

1) mention Ben Ghazi
2) follow up expert opinion by interviewing some random dumbass off the street
3) use the phrase "Some people say" or "people are saying" or "I've heard that" intead of citing credible sources
4) call abortion 'baby killing'
5) claim American Christians are persecuted or mention a war on Christmas
6) try to get you to feel sorry for a millionaire (two drinks if it's a billionaire or a billion dollar corporation)
7) create a liberal view that is either an obvious strawman or an unrealistically extreme position
8) use one of the following phrases: "nanny state", "culture of dependence", "welfare queen", "urban voters", "gay agenda" or "liberal agenda"
9) say that the wealthy work harder or that poor people are poor because they're lazy

Any other suggestions for rules? I think this might be good as is; I'd like to at least get to 10 rules since it's a nice round number, but I already think I have more than enough to kill people from alcohol poisoning.

Yeah, I'm advising people not to play this game when they have work or school the next day. Also, whatever your hang-over remedy is, have it ready because you're going to need it.

Great. You'll be in the ICU by the end of Hannity.

10) Support 2nd amendment rights by claiming society would be safer if everyone was packing heat.

Doesn't this 'game' require that you watch FOX News? Wouldn't you be better off drinking first and then passing out before you turn the TV on?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Yeah, I guess that's the down side, but if you have to watch Fox News for some reason, at least this gives you a way to have a good time with it.

Anyway, I think number 10 will be this

10) Take a drink every time they mention socialism or communism. Take two drinks if they reference the USSR.

11) After any mention of 'fair and balanced'.
13) Whenever a host interrupts and bull rushes someone they don't agree with.
14) After every leading or loaded question.
15) Make it through a whole show without having to call paramedics? Call them, then finish the bottle...
