I for one am going to enjoy watching the RNC.

[MikeG]

There is nothing better than theater of the absurd.

And almost no one is watching anyway.

[Connie_Corleone]

1. I'll be watching.

Although it'll be tough sitting thru country-western music and watching repugs square dance.

[MikeG]

4. I get that at any family wedding I go to. No biggie.

[sui generis]

2. I love my tivo

you can fast forward through all the crap. Oh wait a second, I might as well not record it then.

[Parche]

3. rnc

You have to watch, know your enemy
and then you know how to defeat them

[swag]

5. Nnnng. Are they going to let Liddy Dole walk around matronizing

everybody with her Mr. Microphone again?

[MikeG]

7. Nah. Laura Bush this time explaining why dumb is good.

[gauguin57]

13. "Matronizing with the microphone" -- LOL

Wasn't that the phoniest thing you've ever seen in your LIFE! I still haven't recovered from Liddy's frightening, pasted-on smile and corn-pone warbling. Ew.

[LiberalVoice]

6. I don't know if I can...

I might kill myself...Or worse yet someone else!

I don't know if I could stomach watching it. Then again I do like torturing myself in the weirdest ways. I probably will tune in.

[MikeG]

8. If you can watch worm-eating, you can watch worms.

[MoonRiver]

Please keep reporting back to those of us with weak stomachs.

I'll be knitting.

[RobertSeattle]

9. I can't wait for FogHat to play "Fool for the City"...

:evilgrin:

[MikeG]

10. The acceptance speech is W on a circular stage.

Perfect for his circular arguments.

[Nickster]

11. I'm right there with ya.

I think it will be great theater and everytime I see a B/C 04 rally on tv it just makes me more and more resolute that we are doing the right thing booting him out. The RNC will be just like a battery boost for me.

[shrub chipper]

12. I'll have to pass...

I am leaving for Australia on Tuesday so I will be out of the country for most of it.

I do have to admit that I have some books I am looking forward to reading on the long plane trip (John Dean's, Kevin Phillip's n the Bush Family, Craig Unger's Bush/saud and David Brock's two tomes) to keep my righteous indignation up to acceptable levels!!!

I also wonder what kind of coverage shrub and the repukes will get down under.

[gauguin57]

14. I think it would be a great time to do some phoning

for Kerry. Pull people away from the horrifying Leni-Riefenstahl-spectacle from New York and give them a reason to live --- by voting for John Kerry.

[Connie_Corleone]

15. The Country-Western music alone should drive undecided

voters to Kerry, shouldn't it?

[iwantmycountryback]

25. One can only hope

:toast:

[JohnnyRingo]

16. Me too!....TV to the right of me, and DU in front of me

Like a political Jim Rose Circus.

One big freak show of tasteless music, comical outbursts, false indignation, and Zell miller as a bonus.


Even carnival rides

[shrub chipper]

17. Can they get that ferris wheel...

in MSQ?
I know the riders would be welcome at the RNC! lol

[Connie_Corleone]

19. That photo is from the 2000 RNC convention, right?

n/t

[DoYouEverWonder]

27. LOL - That is the funniest picture

I have ever seen.

Where did you find it? I see a t-shirt in it's future.

[lupita]

18. I don't think I can stomach it. n/t

[MikeG]

20. I forgot. They have funnier funny hats.

[whalerider55]

21. true confessions

i haven't watched a convention since Mario Cuomo's city on a hill speech.

i guess because i'd been an active loser in the dem primary for so long, (Udall, Kennedy, Dean, etc...) i don't watch.

and why bother watching the rethugs? all i have to do is pick up any paper if i want to know what they want me to think.

i think i'll just watch old silent movies on dvd.

[SW FL Dem]

24. My first experience in politics was working for Mo

in NH, MA and NY. I didn't get active again until the 2000 selection.

[SW FL Dem]

22. I'm planning on getting a lot of housework done

with the radio playing in the background. I can't watch without screaming at the tv.

[kwolf68]

23. Have fun

Classes start up this week and while I don't have a Thursday Night class I don't know if I can handle the "Chimp in a Cage" show.

[Guava Jelly]

26. Its not the convention

its the Blow Job that the "Liberal Media" WINK WINK is gonna give all these guys.It will be the Convention Of legends with strong leadership as Fox Cnn and am radio deepthroats the thing.
I would love to see one network play Kerrys acceptance and W,s back to back..Wont happen

but no new ideas in our media these days
