I'm not watching, I'm not listening. I have better things to do with my brain.

14. I simply can't stand it. I think I would pop a blood vessel at this point. |
|
Now that I've figured out how to get The Daily Show online I think I'll just wait for Jon Stewart's analysis.

TV is turned to another station. I'm so glad that I wasn't watching last night because from the clips that I heard I'm certain that my blood pressure would have reached dangerous levels.

17. I'd rather drink bleach. |
|
I'd rather gouge out my eyes with a grapefruit spoon. I'd rather be thrown naked into a Turkish prison. I'd rather lance an infected hemorrhoid with a plastic party fork.
There's more hate coming out of that gathering than my soul can deal with. If I experienced that much hate I'd have to have an exorcism performed before I could mingle with normal humans again.

I'll read about it later, but I don;t need to hear McMumbles give his speech, and I don't need to see the Stepford Wife talk.
I'm watching reruns from the last couple of episodes of the Daily Show. MUCH more entertaining!

I can't stomach it myself, so I'm depending on the good people of DU to watch for me.
Thank you "my friends" for your sacrifices.
Now I am going to wash my mouth out with soap for repeating McSame's favorite meme.

30. I've not watched any of the 2008 version of |
|
Triumph of the Will.
Wouldn't Leni Riefenstahl be proud?
My blood pressure goes up just listening to Amy Goodman's in depth analysis of what took place at the CONvention. I wish all the lefty/liberal talk show hosts were as insightful as Amy Goodman. Thom Hartmann is way too gentle on Republicans, not wanting to challenge them too much and too quick to say "you're right." Amy Goodman is not afraid to speak truth to power.
I even see Rachel Maddow toning it down now that she has become a member of the corporate media punditocracy. Last night she was giving suggestions to pugs on how to introduce Sarah Palin to America by saying she would suggest they only have her interviewed by small town papers!
