I'm not sure he's drunk. He sounds like that stone-cold sober.

He's a douche of the highest order....

Poor Max, he thought if he was pro-big business and kept governement out of the health insurance business by denying single payer and a public option, the Republicans might play nice and forget there's a D in front of his name. I wonder if there were a few "I love you man's" post speech. :thumb:

He really, really is.

I think he was a bit tipsy cuz he's not usually that incoherently passionate.

Baucus is always a blithering idiot, but he obviously had a gut full of booze here.

The worst part is that he lambastes the GOP for being partisan while they basically had to bribe key moderate dems to pass their watered down version of healthcare "reform". :ohno:

Baucus denies being drunk:
The clip is from C-Span, showing a portion of Baucus' exchange with Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss.

Baucus, whose public speaking style can be halting and awkward, is not slurring his words, but sometimes repeats himself during the five-minute video.

Honestly, I'd RATHER listen to him drunk. Either me, or him. I don't care which. :coffee:
