Just watched "An American Carol"
At first I was just flipping through, then I had to watch...like a car crash. All I can say is, holy crap!

Has anyone else watched this? Did you actually make it through the whole thing?

1. Wow . . . you actually sat through it?
Were you really pissed at your stomach for some reason?

4. Actually,
I have a torn meniscus in my knee, so I can't really move. I saw it and thought I would watch it for a minute. You know how it is watch a minute and watch more until you get really irritated.

7. I know what you mean . . .
I blush to admit it, but it's happened to me with "Cheaters", "Cops" and some of those police chase shows . . .

(Bowing head in shame . . . )

5. I turned it on 30 minutes in.
I have regretted my decision to continue watching. But I guess we have to know what's going on amongst the other side...do we?

3. Did you see the "punch liberals in the face until they get it" part?
Because it would take a whole lot of punching for me to "get it"...just to the point where my nose cartilage enters my brain.

Then again...I punch back...hard.

6. I actually saw it twice so I could write up a rebuttal...
...(the WTC bit really ticked me off) but by then it had flopped so badly that its sheer bombhood was more than rebuttal enough.

Waaaaghh!

I can't say which is worst: the colossal historical ignorance, the notion that liberals live in some sort of weird fog of anti-Americanism, or the conservatives' blind confidence that they (and only they) are right.

8. To paraphrase Princess Leia
You sat through that thing? You are brave.
