How much of w's SOTU shitfest will you watch?

[Jim Sagle]

Poll question: How much of w's SOTU shitfest will you watch?

[Squall]

1. All of it.

I plan on writing down how many times he says "freedom" and "liberty," "Iraq," "Al Qaida," "social security," "marriage," "steroids," and "Osama Bin Laden."

My projected tally, in that order, is 45, 53, 4, 0, 1, 2, 1, 0.

I confess though, I got nothing better to do at that moment.

[Spiffarino]

8. Thanks for covering it for the rest of us

...who can't even look at him any more.

And welcome to DU, Squall! :toast:

[Squall]

13. Thanks, just pass me the antacids will you? I'll need them! ((n/t))

[6000eliot]

16. Stewart and Letterman will do that for you.

[newyawker99]

33. Hi Squall!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. None. I need to spend that time cleaning the litter box.

Anyhow, I don't want The Little Cowboy's nasty electrons slithering into my teevee, polluting and defiling it. It's really hard to autoclave a television.

[Warpy]

11. I'd rather eat the contents of the litter box than watch it.

I imagine I'll be cranking on IRC and listening to loud, rude music.

[Jim Sagle]

3. A definite trend seems to be developing here.

;)

[Swamp Rat]

4. Not a single goddamn second of it... unless covered by Jon Stewart on the

Daily Show. :D

[deadparrot]

5. Family and I will be out to dinner.

They despise him as much as I do, and we're not all that eager to be at home.

I'll catch the main highlights of the freakshow here.

[baldguy]

6. Nothing

I just got a new TV a few months ago and I wouldn't trust myself.

[asjr]

7. None. I do not like bad theater.

[flygal]

31. Bad theatre is so true!

He's going to Montana Wed and the tickets are all sold out. The front "men" have been putting the "show" together for a week now. They flew a huge cargo plane in last weekend to deliver all the "props". He's going to get a few sound bites for his ss push.

I believe he's also going to other Red states to push ss. what a coward.

[NV Whino]

9. None

I hate reruns.

Beisdes, I don't get TV reception.

[tnlefty]

10. NASGDSOIT. Can't stand to look at him and it's easier to down-

load it and read it than it is to watch.

[flordehinojos]

12. absolutely none of it... I'll read a transcript later to keep informed

about whatever atrocities he might muster against social security and the American people...but i can't stand him and i will not submit myself to the stress of watching him... it will be stressful enough to read the transcript...but reading it may give me more of a chance to think about what the coward is saying, rather than to just react at what the coward is saying.

[KissMeKate]

14. know thine enemy.

eom

[JohnLocke]

18. Agreed (nt).

[yorkiemommie1]

15. nothing, nada

not when i can watch a 'golden girls' rerun! lol.

[6000eliot]

17. Haven't watched one yet

Who would want to waste their time on that farce!

[Change has come]

19. not one smirking moment...

I'll scan the headlines in LBN.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

20. I'm going to try and watch all of it.

I may need to be sedated when it over, but I want to know just what lies he's spewing first hand.

[cry baby]

21. I understand that Wes Clark is going to do the Dem. response...

I'll watch that.

[Stirk]

22. All of it.

I'm really curious to see if he repeats all that imperialist jargon that he spouted at the inauguration. The White House did alot of back-peddling in the days following it, explaining that it wasn't to be taken as some new statement of policy. If it's repeated in the State of the Union, however, then I'll assume it's precisely that.

[Blue_In_AK]

23. You couldn't pay me to watch it... n/t

[nickgutierrez]

24. The whole damn thing.

As much as I hate him, I still want to know what his people are telling him to think.

[leftofthedial]

25. however much they excerpt on the Daily Show

methinks

[LibDemAlways]

26. I am an expert at chimp avoidance.

Will not watch a second of his simian mug polluting the airwaves.

[Stephanie]

27. Jim Sagle? Where HAVE you been?

So good to see you!

I will watch the whole thing, while simultaneously guzzling chardonnay and retching over the sink.

[Jim Sagle]

35. Hi, Stephanie. I've been right here all along.

Shame on you for wasting perfectly good wine. ;-)

[elvisbear]

28. I just put a splint on my middle finger and I'm ready

for extended viewings of chimp.

[Toucano]

29. However much ends up on the "Daily Show"

and no more.

[donheld]

30. I'll just sit and listen to Fleetwood Mac sing "Tell Me Lies"

Tell me lies tell me lies tell me sweet little lies.

[radfringe]

32. hey, and it's on groundhogs day

does this mean if he sees his shadow we'll have 4 more years of war?

Meanwhile, I'll read the transcript in the bathroom

It's on at 9pm et -- I'll be asleep by then as I have to get up very early in the mornings...

I expect the speech he reads will be just sooooo much blather.

There will be no details of his plans for social security -- whatever he says about it will be filled with fluff and puff and no substance

he'll be "mindful" and "going forward" with his destruction of the economy -- lots of corporate welfare handouts under the guise of "job creation" (btw - is he still in the hole regarding new jobs created?)

Health costs will be blamed on lawyers and law suits.

and as far as Iraq election goes -- watch for a statement to the effect of "..the real winners are the Iraqi people...."

I don't expect anything about Iran specifically -- it will be cloaked with more blather about "bad folk doing bad thing with bad stuff"

Keep your eye out for the "applause" -- how many on which side of aisle jump out and clap enthusiastically? How many had a few shots of kool-aid before the speech?

Immediately following the reading of the speech: Dems will criticize, repugs will kiss-butt

Tommorrow will be mixed reviews and excuses

[Romulus]

34. I'll be on the XBOX, thank you (n/t)
