Poll question: Are you going to watch Chimp's oath and speech tomorrow?
Will you watch Chimp taking the oath and/or reading his speech tomorrow?
Why or why not?

4. Yes
With "Imperial March" blaring in the background. It's been done, and it's not as funny as it used to be...but this ain't about funny anymore.

6. I just fucking hope that the MSM notices their ratings
when the Fucking Imp gets coronated. 0.01% viewer ratings (adjusted for stupid freepers)

10. No, I have already rented 6 DVDs for the day
I am recovering from back surgery and am stuck home. I figured that the all day blowjob on TV would force me to take a hostage so I will be having my own little film festival. Little video rental store in town has $1 rentals on Wednesdays, it was timed perfectly. Can get drunk, but these meds I'm on (oxycontin, neurontin, and a muscle relaxer) have me just floating along on the River Mellow.

11. Won't watch it.
If the History Channel has something good on, I'll watch that instead.

Or may go see a film.

12. Yes.
Otherwise I'll have to watch it later on news coverage and listen to their blather. Then I'll go pick some scabs, dip my scrapes in vinegar and rub salt into them.

will feature prominently in their news the word hole on his stupid face uttering noises...My only interest will be how large the protests are.

26. No, tomorrow I'll be fasting
I plan to spend the day dancing to Niabingi drums and chanting down the system! (no guns, no bayonets, strictly telepathic...mash it!)

"Guiltiness, pressed on their conscious,
They would do anything to materialize their every wish...but wait,
Woe to the downpresser, they eat the bread of sorrow
Woe to the downpresser, they eat the bread of sad tomorrow"

29. Does the new giant plane have new giant barf bags?
Cause that's what I'd need if I watched Dubya's swearing in and speech. I plan to check the tube periodically for coverage of any demonstrations . . . as if the media will acknowledge 1,000 coffins and a few hundred thousand demonstrators.

34. No, to me this is day one
of our official police state. We will probably see a big terror attack in the next few months. Then the snipers on the roofs and metal detectors everywhere will no longer be reserved for inaugurals.

Just cos its history. Not like he's really president or anything, but I want to watch what he'll do. Good to pay attention to his words and see how much he flip-flops (oh, the burning irony) on them later.

And the only reason I will have my TV on, even after work, is if I somehow find out (probably from DU) that something worth watching happenned at the chimp and pony show :evilgrin:

and I just don't think I have the energy... Although I might tune in briefly (leaving the sound off because I can't stand the sound of his phony-Texan voice) in order that I may moon WeeCowboy through my teevee.

53. NO WAY
I actually feel physically ill when I hear the man speak. I have to mute the tv or change it if he is going to be on for more than a few seconds. Even that smirk of his is just like running your nails on a chalkboard. It is painful.

I cannot believe this man is going to be our president....again.:-(
