I will monitor here, maybe. I think I am coming down with the flu and have had it with the corpoarte media outlets.

I know what the State of our nation is, hearing idiot boy's spin it would just make me too angry and disgusted. Not sure I want to hear the Dem response either, unless they have suggestions.

4. No way. I will even be late going to the brewpub over it!!!
And that is serious!! Because the speech will be on the TVs there, and I refuse to sit there while that THING is babbling away. I was in there in 2002 on this evening, and I managed to hold my finger up at him for about 10 minutes, then I turned my back on him in my bar chair. No one applauded him, and many gave him the finger at times.

But I am not in the mood even for that tonight.

5. Nope...
I literally can't watch the chimp....seriously, I get so physically disgusted and embarrassed that this person supposedly represents me that I have to turn the channel, so I don't even bother. I just read the transcripts later. If the are altered by the WH, I'm sure DUers will let it be known.

10. I'm watching....
I'll watch because i know it's the last time this chimp will ever be respected by anyone (but not me! ) I really want to hear how he spins his way into his utter defeat, or better yet his IMPEACHMENT!

7. I can't watch him
I'll watch the analysis when it's over, but I can't stand to even look at his patronizing face anymore.

8. just .... can't ...... stomach ...... it .......
I can barely stand to look at that guy, much less listen to him spout more lies for however long he's gonna spout.

Life's too short.

11. Personally, I'm watching a tape of Law & Order
I prefer the fiction of Dick Wolf's writers to Shrub. Besides, Sam Waterston is more handsome, and has more character, than Bush.

12. Hell no
Listening to that whining voice is like enduring finger nail scratching a chalk board. He's unbearable.
