Sorry, I didn't mean I was unclear on the concept, rather that I was gobsmacked that anybody regardless of their political persuasion would think that it was reasonable.
Admittedly the guy who wrote it is a junior congressman, however, 46 other senators signed it too. http://www.cotton.senate.gov/sites/default/files/signature.pdf
Wow. Nice! I've only ever seen a version where the pieces were hollow and had drinks in them, but they were small and there wasn't much space for drinks. This looks appropriate. The rules are simple, same as ordinary chess, except that whenever you "eat" an enemy piece, you drink it empty, preferably at once with one sip. It's a challenging form of chess because the better player will be handicapped rather soon and vice versa. It's also known that in this version sacrificing your pawns is a lot more tempting strategy.
