1. Oh yes, of course...and I will also get 2 root canals

and take a hammer and pound my hand with it, and bash my head into the wall


In all seriousness...SOTU remind me of the Communist Party yearly meetings, when the General Secretary of the CPSU would talk BS, and every 10 minutes he would get interrupted with thunderous applause

[davidinalameda]

2. I try not to watch too much trash TV

I limit it to Springer

I can believe his guests much easier than Bushie

[Beaverhausen]

3. Damnit! that means West Wing won't be on this week.

ah...for us to have Bartlet in the White House.

[SharonRB]

12. I totally agree with you.

My first reaction when I heard the SOTU was Wednesday night was, "Oh, darn, West Wing won't be on." Whenenver I see Jeb Bartlett I yearn for the good old days and wish Martin Sheen would run for president. I watched "An American President" the other day and that made me feel the same way.

[Borgnine]

21. Hah, I know.

The West Wing is a great escapist fantasy for liberals and Democrats. It's been helping me keep my sanity.

[edbermac]

4. Not even at gunpoint...

I'd rather stare at the sun for 10 hours until my eyeballs explode...

[Generator]

5. No and I'm pissed as hell

Lost and Alias are not on. It ruins my one good night of TV.

[Vinca]

6. I'd rather stick hot needles in my eyes.

Or watch polka dancers on RFDTV. Or :puke: in the toilet. Or clean the cat box. Or eat tripe. Or assemble a Dubya statue made of ear wax.

[Warpy]

27. Hell, I'd rather EAT the cat box, contents and all

I'll be listening to good music. Loud. Just in case any of my neighbors has the TV on and volume turned up.

[katinmn]

7. I don't need to watch. I already know it's FUBAR

:evilfrown:

[phish420]

8. DU'n

[AntiCoup2K4]

9. I'm considering taping it and watching it this weekend

Make a drinking game out of it - one drink for each "freedom", two for "liberty" and three for "9-11" (or any derivative form of).

Can't have that kind of fun on a Wednesday. :beer:

[sabra]

11. Get ready to get wasted!

What was it, 27 times for 'freedom' on 1/20?

[Jon8503]

10. No, No, Absolutely Not

Can't believe how CNN grasps this State Of The Union, wonder how much they were paid to promote the election in Iraq & now the State of The Union. What makes them think we will get the truth this time.

[SharonRB]

13. It will be torture, but I will probably watch.

I love comedy, and I'm sure I'll get at least a few laughs out of it.

[sabra]

14. That's why I am torn...

might be worth it for laughs alone.

[SharonRB]

15. And I also like to keep informed so I have a point of

reference when I hear all the spin on the news afterwards and the next day.

[Rob H.]

16. They left out the response I would've picked

There's no "Are you fucking kidding me?!" option.

I guess "No" has to do. *sigh* :P

[LosinIt]

17. So glad this falls on a Wednesday, $1 rental day at the video store

Maybe I can watch some comparatively intellectual, like Son-in-Law with Pauly Shore.

[Delphinus]

18. I wish they had a category ...

"f*ck no!!"

[liberalpragmatist]

19. Yes

[liberalpragmatist]

20. A friend of mine is playing a drinking game to it

She's going to take a shot every time Bush twitches or says "Freedom."

I told her not to - she'll kill herself.

[Beaverhausen]

22. Here is a link to the game

[EFerrari]

28. HIlarious. You know, I miss "terra". What ever happened to that? nt

[Blue_In_AK]

23. 71, yes; 29, no

I wouldn't watch that pig's "address" if it was the last thing on TV.

[trochanter8]

24. YUK!

It'll be discussed and dissected for a week. I didn't listen to Clinton's either. They're too boring for me!

[ScreamingMeemie]

25. No, I plan to watch other, actually good, fiction that evening.

:hi:

[deadparrot]

26. Uh, NO.

It's my goddamn birthday. I'm not going to taint it like that.

I'm sure I'll hear whatever crazy new scheme he's come up with on DU.

[Rob H.]

29. Hey, Happy Birthday!

Um, two days from now, that is. :)

[sabra]

33. It's my B-Day too!

Hello fellow groundhogger :-)

[Cadence]

30. I feel sorry for the person that has to try to find a pic where he

looks "Presidential", I bet it takes forever to find a photo that works.

[orleans]

31. gag gag gag

watch * on tv?
:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:
we're being tormented enough without having to actually look at him.

i can't even watch the commercials with clinton and poppy so cute and cuddled up together

the vote on cnn is still 71 to 29% no.

i'm a no.

[FreedomAngel82]

32. Not for all the money in the world

I don't think so. I couldn't watch that piece of crap. 9/11, Iraq, Social Security.... All he'll talk about.

[Rob H.]

34. I've been fighting the urge to post this

Mainly because I've posted it twice before in other threads, but here's a quick synopsis of every speech * has ever made--or will make. No reason to waste time watching it on TV. :)
