I can't even stand to look at the man anymore.

Please just tell me when it's over.

Until then, just tell me about indictments, impeachment, low polls, anything to show there's hope.

But as far as wasting my time watching him lie on TV, I've got better things to do. Like just about anything I can possibly think of.

1. Well, you'll be happy to know that Bill Schneider mentions that

to preface any polls they get on Bush speeches - he did it again tonight.

Schneider said most of the people that actually watch Bush are Republicans so any polling re reaction to a Bush speech tends to weigh heavily toward them. He said Dems wont even listen to Bush any more and it's been that way for quite awhile.

Even with that caveat, it was the worst received Bush speech - worse then the SOTU, and all the other ones he has given, they included in the graphic the SOTU, the "Mission Accomplished" speech, and two others.

3. I skimmed the transcript.

It's essentially "Here's what we're doing about immigration reform, in a numbered list."

The National Guard is a group Bush can manipulate; he's quite happy to do it.

6. Unfortunately... I Decided To Watch Keith & He Began What I Thought
was going to be an excerpt. I had just dipped my finger tips in olive oil and had to spend a lengthly time with my eyes shut and hollering LIAR, LIAR PANTS ON FIRE and other expletives. By the time I was doing Blah, Blah, Blah I decided to UN-Dip and start to change the channel. Then I heard Keith with Tweety!

Good thing my husband was out of town, he WOULD have taken me away. I live on the East Coast and it's a bit late... I don't think anyone heard me! But if they did, SO WHAT??

7. LOL! I had the f**ker on but spent the whole time
doing dishes and cleaning the kitchen, occasionally shouting out, "Suck it you liar!" and "Shut the F**k up, you worthless weasel!" I even gave the finger to the TV a couple of times. Realized my windows and blinds were open a little while later and just laughed at what my neighbors must have thought if they heard me.

9. It Was Very Late When Keith Came On...
I refused to watch ALL the coverage earlier... figured I could get the low down here.... so then there was KEITH, and ElSmirk in all his SMUT!

Funny we had the same idea, and I JUST COULDN'T help myself. I actually realized this stuff has begun to make me act CRAZY! I don't think I've eber had this kind of reaction!
