Poll question: How much of chimpy's babble will you watch?
I know...I've done this poll before. But it's fun to do it again!

2. have to
You should watch it. If you can stomach it, at least you can get it before either side gets to spin it for their own benefit. Watching it first hand is a lot better than listening to it after it's been through the political party spin cycle.

3. None.
I will not watch. I will listen until the very sound of his voice will make me scream (generally less than 2 sentences.)

Remote...gotta find the remote.

6. It's physically painful to listen to him speak.
He embarrasses the country every time he opens his mouth.

8. All of it, and I'll tell you why...
This DUHmb fuck always has not-so subtle shit he says that outlines the next set of freedoms that will be stolen from the people, and what the next BIG BLUNDER will be. Like an Al Qaeda message, if you will.

Listening carefully as he mangles the language keeps us one step ahead, IMO. If you can sit through the word NU-CU-LAR! AAARRGGH!

12. Time is too precious to waste it listening to the chimp.
It's is all going to be self-serving BS and lies. The sound of his voice makes me ill.

16. I won't be watching
And I don't think the networks should preempt regular programming to carry it. It's not news, it's just a desperate PR stunt. Just another example of the coward surrounding himself with troops he cares nothing about in order to improve his sagging poll numbers.

17. I can NOT listen to him.
His inarticulateness alone keeps me from listening to a word he says. I'll read it later, which is slightly less painful. Then all I have to deal with is the blatant dishonesty and gross stupidity.

18. I've got better things to do...like jamming splinters under my fingernails
I cannot listen to a single minute of this "man" speak. He gets me so pissed off that I cannot think straight.

Besides, everything the man says is a blatant lie...I've got better things to do than sit there and be lied to.

Fuck the shrub.

22. I rarely watch tv anyway, and B--- make me throw things
I listen to a lot of radio and when ever Idiot Boy comes on, I have the involuntary reaction of yelling "Shut the fuck up" and turning off the radio until IB goes away.

26. LMAO - I yell at the radio, too
I cannot stand watching him, and if I happen to hear his voice on the radio, I can't stop myself from talking back: "Shut up, you lying a**hole," etc.

25. Sounds like many of you...
... have the same reaction to the Dictatortot that I do.

He cannot speak two sentences without lying. It sends me into a rage to listen to him at all, much less watch him make all those attempted-sincerity expressions.


But most of all? Most of all it just makes me sad that even 10% of my countrymen and countrywomen cannot see him for what he is.

28. Watching him speak makes me physically ill, no joke.
Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 08:54 AM by BlueIris
It's not good for my blood pressure, first off. Second--I think it's something to do with the sound of his voice. I've come to associate it with the worst things in the universe. He's not just a part of and in favor of the destruction, he's the illusion that keeps good people believing it's okay to love the destruction. For some reason, even Cheney is possible for me to take in limited increments, but W.? Nope. Can't do it. Tried to tolerate some clips of him on TDS earlier tonight and almost wound up over the toilet. I am dead serious. He's like my cryptonite. I'll get the highlight online, but no primetime ever again. Unless it's the resignation speech.

29. As usual,
I will try to watch, but will fall to the ground in a fit of apoplexy after about 2 minutes.

Watching the weed is bad for my blood pressure.

30. Seeping and creeping
Enough of what he says seeps and creeps into our world without encouraging him. May his ratings be in the toilet. They've been drum beating his latest drool for days, I think they want an audience. Deny that fuck even a glance.

32. This time I'll watch
last time he spoke, some of yall here mentioned that it seemed obvious that somebody was coaching him, that he'd pause and wait for somebody to say into a gadget in his ear what he should say. So I'll be watching it to see that.

Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 09:39 AM by Old Broad
My husband will watch and I will be able to tell the level of
lies and stupidity from the amount of screaming that will be coming
from the other room.

37. Wow, how ignorant are we?
Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 10:22 AM by dhinojosa
I am going to watch, one way or another. I need to be informed to make informed decisions. I gotta say I am disappointed in these numbers. If you can't watch it live on TV, I suggest cspan.org.

I would expect a republican to close their ears and eyes but not us.
