       ‘No animal shall drink alcohol to excess." i think that this
       phrase is the most ironic because of the pigs are saying it,
       why? because the pigs do whatever they want.

       I think the irony comes in "Squealer, temporarily stunned, was
       very close, very convenient and had a flashlight, a brush and a
       jar of white paint dump." since squaler often changed the rules
       then this phrase gives us to understand that, another phrase
       which is ironic is "The dogs immediately made a ring round
       Squealer, and escorted him back to the house as soon as he was
       able to walk "as this happens when you change the rule that you
       can not take but too

       from my point of view the phrase "No animal shall drink alcohol
       TO EXCESS” is ironic, because it shows how the pigs changing the
       commandments to their benefit and to justify their recklessness.
       Here is evident the authority abuse and the government
       absolutist. :P

       In my opinion, it shows Napoleon in this chapter take more
       drastic control measures farm. You may also notice that the pig
       is having more approach to humans. For example, in a part of the
       work he says the camp was exhausted and needs to sow barley,
       only to control their habit. One of the most ironic sentences
       regarding this change is when he mentions "No animal shall
       alcoholic drink to excess," it is because Napoleon could not
       control his addiction, although it is known that men took
       Alcohol, and now raises this excuse just to drink Whiskey.

       I think that in the two last paragraphs of the chapter, there
       are two ironic phrases:
       1. "Squaler, temporarily stunned, was sprawling beside it": it
       means that Squaler was drunk, for that reason he couldn't stand
       up and the dogs had to help him.
       2. "“No animal shall drink alcohol,” but there were two words
       that they had forgotten.": The animals hadn´t forgotten the
       Fifth Commandment. It was Squealer who added two words to
       justify his new vice, modifying the commandment as “No animal
       shall drink alcohol TO EXCESS.”

       From my poitn of view, the ironic phrase in this chapter is the
       following: "Squealer, temporarily stunned, was sprawling beside
       it, and near at hand there lay a lantern, a paintbrush and an
       overturned pot of white paint". Why? The answer is because he
       tried to change the "7 rules of the animals" for the benefit of
       the porks. The way that Orwell use is very ironic because he
       describes how was Squealer after his fall.  :D :o

       I think the two most ironic phrases are "No animal shall drink
       alcohol to excess" and "Squealer, temporarily stunned, lay on
       the ground nearby were a flashlight, a brush and a jar of paint"
       First, because we noticed that changed the commandment pigs,
       adding two words, so the animals could not complain, because
       pigs do not inflicted the new commandment. It is ironic that the
       same pigs said that alcohol was only to humans.
       And, in my opinion, the second fact is transcendental, because
       that way is clear evidence that pigs changed every precept to
       fit their convenience. It's totally ironic because this goes
       against every democracy. All the promises of a rebellion for the
       sake of the animals go to the trash, since they were lies to
       finally pigs have power over all

       I think the ironic phrase is one of the new commandment : "No
       animal shall drink alcohol TO EXCESS". Originally was "No animal
       shall drink alcohol". That occurred because now the pigs drink
       alcohol and with that commandment "justify" their action to
       break the original commandment.  :-\

       “No Animal Shall drink to excess alcohol”. This phrase is
       showing how little by little the animals forget the aim of their
       rebellion, and pigs abuse his power giving them a great life.

       I think, that one of the phrases is: "Squealer, temporarily
       stunned, was sprawling beside it, and near at hand there lay a
       lantern, a paintbrush and an overturned pot of white paint",
       because it represent in a burlesque way the innocence of the
       population and how the lieder take advantage of that. The second
       phrase is: "No animal shall drink alcohol to excess” as Squealer
       changes the fifth commandment of the laws from the Farm
       according to the interesting from the pigs, that was saw in
       before chapters, and “to excess” means the form that they use
       their power.
