Anyone actually gonna watch the RNC?

[Lauren2882]

I'm not- After this, I'm thinking it will be not only disgusting, but boring!

[Demonaut]

1. i wil, need to know as much as possible bty FUCK TUCKER CARLSON!

[Kitka]

2. I doubt I will be able to stomach it.

[bookman]

3. Perhaps if...

... CNN has opposing views dominating their broadcast again.

Think they'll do it?

PS - Bill Schneider will be there. What a sham!

[joanne]

4. Couldnt stand to do it

5 seconds of listening to Repukes is 5 seconds too much. :puke:

[demosincebirth]

5. Are ya nuts!!

[WilliamPitt]

6. I'm gonna fuckin be there, blogging and interviewing

Walking into the RNC with a truthout press badge is gonna be like walking into a lion cage with a pork chop around my neck.

Our lady of victory, pray for us.

[Richard D]

13. You're a brave man. . .

and I truly appreciate everything you are doing.

[VelmaD]

16. I'm taking up a collection...

but I'm not sure whether it's to buy you a pair of industrial strength hip-waders or to help pay for your funeral.

You are a braver man than I. ;)

[fofer]

18. Brave is right. . .

Best of luck, Will! Go get 'em.

[MoonRiver]

28. Stock up on TUMS and St. John's Wort.

You'll need them both! :puke:

[Ravenseye]

7. I'm gonna try...

I'm curious as to what message they're going to hammer on. I'm betting more lies about how the programs they have that don't work, actually do work. Maybe about how their policies that have made America less safe, has made us all safer. Toss in some anti-choice, anti-rights language against women and homosexuals...

If anything it'll make me feel even stronger about what needs to happen come November.

[givemebackmycountry]

8. NO

YOU MUST WATCH.

If for NO other reason than to see if they do what we did.
No W. bashing, save Sharpton.

Fallwell is giving the invocation, that should tell you EVERYTHING you need to know.

I think we are about to see Chimpfest 2004.
W is this and W is that and he TALKS TO GOD for crying out loud.
This is going to be the theater of the absurd.

TELL me it is not.

CHIMPFEST 2004.
Year of the silver spoon, son of the president, three failed businesses, national guard hiding, ex-alcoholic, ex-drug addict, dry drunk, psychopathic, bible thumping, scripture quoting, can't find his ass with a road map and a flashlight GEORGE W. BUSH the soon to be ousted unelected fraud of the United States of America!

[DemWitch]

9. Monday and Tuesday going to watch

with a bottle of Maalox for the acid reflux and Cola Syrup for the nausea... Wednesday and Thursday going to be in NYC holding a Kerry/Edwards sign high and proud...

[Must_B_Free]

10. Are you kidding? It's going to be a LAFF RIOT

I can't wait!

It's like a turd salesman looking for repeat customers. "Doesn't anyone want to buy one of my grab bags again? you might get a prize this time instead of a rotten turd?"

[Lauren2882]

22. LOL

Very apt analogy...

[sundog]

11. doubt it-- I have enough stress in my life already, why upset myself more?

then again, I may be in a different mood when it actually happens-- but the media will be so much easier on the repubs, and that's the part that will get me the most upset...

[Endangered Specie]

12. yes

[MoonRiver]

14. No, because I don't want to die from hypertension.

If * pulls off another theft I'll be meditating, reading, knitting, and above all else ignoring the t.v. 100% of the time.

[Charlie Brown]

15. Bet they'll tout Bush as a war hero

"When my country went to war, I did my part"

[AlCzervik]

17. you could just watch Faux, it'l like a republican convention every day.

Whats the point of them even having one?

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

19. I am because

where else can I get that odd mixture of laughing and puking at the same time?

Seriously I want to know EVERY word they say. I might not be able to stomach actually watching every minute of it, so I'll read transcripts in some cases.

But I want to be watching the prime time parts to see if anyone/anything implodes.

Also just to see how freaking boring it will be.

Goo gah freedom goo gah terra goo gah freedom goo gah terra

[AlCzervik]

20. Just picture 20,000

assholes wrapped in flags bashing liberals, thats about what it will be.

[fujiyama]

21. I seriously doubt I'll watch any of it.

I can't stand what their party stands for and I dislike those that will be speaking. I've lost most of the respect I had for McCain as well.

Ironically he called Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell "forces of evil" in '00. Memories are quite short.

One thing I also will expect is the same pundits going after the democratic speakers will treat the republicans with royal gloves. They won't lay a hand on them and it will be the biggest smooch fest. You'll see Tweety swooning over Bush's "manliness" and "toughness" and drooling over Arnold's huge arms. Of course, just so anyone won't think he's gay, he'll start going on about Laura Bush. Then Fineman will be on going on about how Bush did a better job than anyone expected. Scarbrough will say he's an amazing wartime president. Zell Miller will be next....Maybe they'll have a token moderate or two, but they'll agree that Bush is ultimately a nice guy.

Sorry, I really can't see myself subjecting myself to that kind of thing. I'm not a masochist.

[The Blue Knight]

23. I'll watch it, just because politics is interesting.

And just so I can see how it compares to the DNC, and the way things are going....they might as well not even have a convention.

[rocktivity]

24. When I'm checking out the DNC coverage on the cable channels

I feel like I AM watching the RNC!

:headbang:
rocknation

[shawmut]

25. No

Nope.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

26. I think not.

In fact, I think I'd rather stick knitting needles in my eyes.

[SuffragetteSal]

27. What's that saying "know thy enemy"

and I want to see who is there supporting W. I am quite positive the music will be snoozing as compared to the great music of the Dems convention!
