Who's going to watch the RNC Love Fest
next week? And how much? I figure I will have to watch some of it, but dread it. While I watched as much of the DNC as I could find or make time for. What are your plans?

3. i will not watch it
the only one i might watch is mccain. but i can't even stand watching republicans on tv now and usually press mute when they come on so i wont be able to watch this.

i will rely on others, and internet sites like du where other dems/liberals who watch can keep us informed.

6. That's my problem too, can't stand it
for any length of time, which is why I am dreading the thought of watching any of it. Sigh. This too shall pass.

I get drunk enough to want to yell at the television set! (Which will probably happen).

8. Who needs to be drunk to yell at the TV?
I yell at them sober, might throw something when drunk!

5. I won't watch it
I've got better things to do with my time rather than waste it on watching those ratwing bigoted thugs.

7. Not much.
Maybe just tune in to see how freaky it really is for a few minutes at a time and to see how the commentary is going on the news. Other than that it's DU, music and HGTV.

10. I might watch McCain & Giuliani, but that's it.
It doesn't matter that I disagree with most of their Pub ideals, at least every time I've heard them, they spoke coherently, didn't yell, and honestly stated their point of view.

I won't submit myself to viewing the other speakers, because to me, they are not honest. They aren't telling people what they believe, but just reciting a speech written for them by planners for the party.

I can't listen to shrub anymore. My bloodpressure goes up, I yell at the TV, and just get way too pissed off. It's not worth it.

11. You must mean Hate Fest
because there ain't one bitty drop of love in those cold shriveled prunes they have as hearts.

I wouldn't watch it if someone paid me. I have a weak stomach.

12. Not me.
At most I'll try the commentary afterwards, but if it's too pro-chimp I'll tune out and won't tune in again 'til it's over.

14. I'll watch the chimp. I love to watch him struggle with the language.
But....oh my blood would boil if I tried to watch the rest of it, I'm sure. Yuck. Have to watch it from the shower cuz it would make me feel all dirty.

17. Nope. We don't own them our attention. We owe these...
sons-of-bitches nothing.

Then again, knowing what went on would make us much more persuesive because we could talk to it.
