I just don't know if I can stand to watch the SOTU

[crispini]

I honestly feel a little sick to my stomach. I want him to hit it out of the park. I'm tired of worrying about the future of our country. I want to believe I can trust Obama to take care of the country. I'm so tired of worrying about my life AND about the country...

1. Watch it, and let us know your gut reaction when it's over.

crispini, it's no where near as bad as what we've already been through for 8 years, depending on your gut and who you're listening to.

:hug:

[crispini]

5. Oh, you're right about that.

Nothing could be worse than the Shrub. I just want him to do good. I'm ready to get the country moving in a positive direction.

2. High School Reunion is on Nick at Nite at 9 Central!

Yes, it's silly and fluffy, but sometimes that's just what you need.

[crispini]

3. hahahaha.

Sometimes I wish I hadn't gotten rid of the cable. :D

[tavalon]

20. I've been off the teat for a decade now

Go for it. It's really nice and you won't lack for news you want to watch, with the internetz.

4. Oh jeezus... grow a set already

You're literally getting sick to your stomach over a speech on TV?

Really?


REALLY?


Damn... every caricature the right wing has about liberals is displayed in your OP.


No wonder they attempt to "bully" progressives. With attitudes like yours, it's very easy to do.

[crispini]

6. Bite me.

There, does that have enough "balls" for you? :evilgrin:

[bettyellen]

7. ha ha, you go Crispi!

[crispini]

10. LOL. heya bettyellen.

:hug:

[scheming daemons]

9. There... that's the spirit! Now quit whining and watch our President

...

[babylonsister]

8. Leave crispini alone! She's just nervous for our prez. nt

[scheming daemons]

12. I know... but damn... we've got to quit being such wilting flowers on our side

The President is going to be fine.

[crispini]

14. LOL thanks girlfriend

:hug: he's a good guy ... I like him, i just worry for him sometimes. he's got a tough job. I hope he can cope with it all.

11. I'm hoping we're being gamed.

It would be in character to carefully set an expectation of a SOTU equipped with a bushel of fail.

When the bushel fails to appear, we'll all cheer.

13. Have a little faith. When I get down, I always remember we could be listening

to John McCain's first SOTU.

That's infinitely worse than anything President Obama will say tonight.

[crispini]

16. zOMG

:puke:

I could be off somewhere getting completely blitzed. True dat!

[Tatiana]

19. ((((HUGS)))) FDR didn't turn things around after a year in office.

It took time. The President seems to understand where things have gotten off track. I have a feeling he's going to have a more fervent ardor for pursuing our goals.

[condoleeza]

15. 15 minutes and counting

and I understand where you're coming from. I don't know if ANY President can tell us what we want to hear and Obama is surely under a whole new set of expectations.

I still have my Obama stickers on my car, I worked for him all of '08 and was not happy about Geithner from the get go. Imagine he learned a lot about "How it works" once he was in the inner circle, still am hoping he shows a set tonight and have avoided reading any "excerpts" or the Republican response that was probably written months ago.

As of this minute I still have hope, the stickers are removable.

[w8liftinglady]

17. here-let's watch it together...i had my doubts,too

[crispini]

18. I'll be here.
