Discussion: Police Recording Suggests New Mexico Guv Was Inebriated At Her Party

Discussion for article #244065

Look, Iā€™m a flaming liberal, despise republicans as much as anybody in America, and I donā€™t drink; but, really, guys, wtf do you expect people to be doing at a party at the holidays? Quilting?

This is taking things to farā€¦ first they stop allowing you to receive gifts, then they banned you having sex with underlings, now you canā€™t even get drunk? What is the benefit of being a governor.

ā€œShe finds it absolutely unacceptable and plans to address this with her staff ā€” which could include disciplinary action,ā€ he said.

Yes, she will. As soon as someone explains to her what happened on the night in question.

Itā€™s New Mexico. They should be making dream catchers. And doing Tequila shots and peyote.

I know when a drunk person is trying to not sound inebriated (Iā€™ve tried it many times). The faux astonishment, the care in pronouncing words, and failing, as when she said ā€˜Thereā€™s no necessaryā€™.

Sober people at a party are probably not inclined to throw bottles over a balcony, but it was decided by TPMers in a thread about this incident a few days that she and her posse were in fact drunk. We also decided weā€™d like to see her rising star fizzle out. And Iā€™m sorry, I think New Mexico I think Walter White and what he got up to.

Cannabis would have resulted in a more-civilized gathering.

Think of it as a little holiday gift for New Mexicans. Susana got caught being her real self and as a bonus put the chingas to her hopes for national office. The Legislature fires up in early January and this should mute her plans for further restrictions on voting and blocking environmental programs. Used to be SOS Duran got some jail time so I think her little charade about corrupt Democrats has played out.

A whole lot of New Mexicans would like to see her go back to Texas. She was brought here by big out of state money to groom her as a Republican VP. The RNC must be pretty cheesed off to have another Palin on their hands after all the expense.

Well, throwing bottles off a balcony does seem a little extreme.

Martinezā€™s office reiterated Tuesday that the governor has previously said she had a drink and a half

A drink and a half? What the fuck is that. You either had a drink or you didnā€™t. Itā€™s like George carlin said about crumbs. If you try to pick it up and it splits in half, you donā€™t have two 1/2 crumbs, you have 2 crumbs.

It makes its sound like a high school party. Drink one, spill one and give one away.

A drink and ā€œa halfā€ and sheā€™s slurring and visibly drunk? How damn big were those drinks? Either that, or what a lightweight!

Is that a good combination?

Heh. You might just be the first to call her a lightweight. And what the hell good is it to be La Patrona if you canā€™t throw bottles down on the peons?

Curiously, there is a 24/7 State Police security detail assigned to keep the Governor safe and out of trouble. They now have the task of explaining all this so as not to get reassigned to Antelope Wells.

To paraphrase the bible, Let he, or she, who is without inebriation, cast the first bottle.
