1. His last "speech" was one of the lowest rated..
Presidential addresses in history. I predict this one will be even lower.

3. looks like 8pm where I live
Adelphia cable has 8-8:30 blocked out on most major networks. I'm hoping they are done by the time Grey's Anatomy starts.

7. If he pre-empts 24, his polls should go to zero.
Seriously, I know that 24 is entertainment. But, I still get a big kick out of watching and would be very annoyed to have it replaced by the REAL crooked President.

8. Isn't 24 the show Karl Rove writes?
I remember there was all of this brouhaha a while back about a Fox show dramatizing the war on terror because they'd worked out a deal with the White House to get unprecedented access to real government facilities, in return for running the scripts pass Karl Rove for the White House's official stamp of approval. Isn't that 24?

12. I don't know anything about all of the Rove stuff. But, I did notice
that during the first year, 24 seemed to be favoring a right-wing agenda in some ways. However, the recent episodes have portrayed the President as a traitor. The good thing about this is that it may help average Americans conceptualize the possibility of the President being a traitor. In America, where for so long the President has been viewed as a "father figure", it has been very difficult to imagine him being an out and out criminal and traitor. The show still shows much too much about torture. I can't see why Rove would approve a script that depicts the President as exactly what Bush is.

Aside for these considerations, it's just interesting to watch Jack Bauer get into and out of all the outlandish situations.

14. Will the networks cancel Grey's Anatomy?
My daughter will die! She will picket the station and call me at work and scream! And he thought his numbers were dropping before - he hasn't seen anything yet!

16. Obviously people don't watch him speak or they would have discovered long
ago that he is a blithering idiot. They just watch the MSM sing his praises and regurgitate that.
