Ok.....so how many of you are going to be fool enough to watch
the monkey and his ass kissers tonight? I refuse to give ratings to this farce. I will be watching a movie instead. It's less fictional than the idiot and HIS lies.

One more thing. I couldn't hold my dinner down if I saw that homely wife of SCUM-lito sitting with Mrs. Stepford. I have a very weak stomach. :puke:

1. I might be.
It will be more like throwing things at the TV, however, in my case. It's probably better for my blood pressure if I just walk away....

3. I'm no fool, thank you, but I'm watching
I am strong, not weak. I will watch and learn. I will know my enemy.





You have the right not to watch and I have the right to watch. I won't call you a fool for not watching...




Sorry, I'm just a little more than tired of having my rights fucked with. I have a right to watch him lie and ratings have nothing to do with it. Frankly, it's a little shallow to be worried about.

20. the "right to watch" is what was said.
Unless I've misunderstood you, or missed a line in the other post, and if so, sorry for that.

Look, I would like to see it too, but I have to go work. I think it's important to watch the SOTU, especially when the president is a sniveling little punk who thinks he has something to prove. I like to keep an eye on the crazy people in charge when I can. I'd also like to see it for myself on c-span before all the spin sets in, if that's ok with you.

You don't have to if you don't want to, and I'm not going to blame you for why this country is so "bu$h worshiping fucked up," nor will I think less of you or call you a fool because of your decision.

26. He repeats the same shit over and over
Once you've seen a "speech" of his,you've seen them all.He doesn't say anything different. Watching that smart mouthed punk lean on the podium is too much for my eyes and his repeating the same things is enough to hypnotize a person. Gads,I can't take it.

32. So don't watch it. And I know he'll say the same bullshit. Of course he
will. Of. Course.

I have always watched SOTU speeches, and if I didn't have to go to work, I'd suffer through this one too. I know it would be excruciating, (even with the booze I'd be drinking to deaden the pain--really, there's not enough booze in the world), but I just feel like I should see it with my own eyes and my own brain before all the spin-monkeys get their hands on it. That's all.

Nobody's making you take it, anyway. It's ok.

Things are tense; we've had a couple of bad days. I'm sorry if I sounded argumentative. I thought it was you who were looking to start a flame war or something; your topic is very divisive.


You call me a bush speaker then tell me I'm insensitive and rude.





Brilliant.

36. sniveling little punk
Well said!


I'm happy to see there are more here like me who would rather travel behind the drunk on the road so you can keep an eye on him, rather than speed ahead and have him hit you from behind.

;)



How anyone could hold themselves holier than thou for keeping their head in the sand is beyond me. Ignoring the bastard won't make him go away, but there's a chance that watching him will.

It strengthens my resolve. And every time he lies, there's a chance someone might break the kool-aid bond. The more he lies, the likelier that is to happen.

6. ill be tuning in to AAR
This Tuesday night at 7, join Air America Radio's "The Majority Report" for Political Science Theater 3000. Sam Seder will be live at the Center for American Progress hosting a live panel before (and during) President Bush's State of the Union Addess.

After a spirited discussion, when "W" takes the podium at 8, Sam and the others will provide a running commentary about what is sure to be our clueless leader's latest mangling of the English language.

Panelists include authors of "Get this Party Started" Amy Sullivan, Chris Bowers, and Anna Greenberg, as well as bloggers Judd Legum (Think Progress and CAP) and Duncan Black (Atrios).

Air America Premium members can watch the whole thing live over the "internets" while everyone else can tune into your local affiliates or catch the audio at www.airamericaradio.com.

7. Stop it with the "homely wife" business. I'll bet there are a lot
of DUers that are glad that the camera isn't on them. I'm one of them.

We look the way we look, and criticising looks is adolescent.

I usually watch most of the speeches & press conferences, not because I am a fool, but because I want to see them for myself, first hand,,,, before any of the spin starts,,,,,

BUT, today I am feeling pretty raw,,,,, not sure I want to watch the gloating & strutting,,,,

19. Exactly
People who say they have to watch the liefests to "know the enemy" puzzle me. Anything worth hearing is plastered all over the Internet within minutes. Why subject yourself to that?

The sight and sound of that vile pig makes me physically ill and insane with rage. I'm going to the San Francisco protest, and then maybe to the women's bath house for a soul-healing soak.

... that is, my dad told me over the weekend that if I couldn't keep my mouth shut, I should go to my room (I am 26). BWHAHAHAHA.

I plan to read a good book instead, though a drinking game sounds like a great idea. I might stay in the room and take a shot every time he mispronounces something. Then again, thanks to his idiotic policies, I don't have much cash and don't really want to waste it on bourbon this week.
