Folks who watch the Networks for convention coverage are Masochists!
Edited on Tue Jul-27-04 07:03 AM by trumad
I don't get it? I know, I know,,,, You're gonna say that you want to hear what the bad guys are saying, etc...

You already know what they're going to say, you've seen these idiots in action the last couple of years. So why watch them? Why get your blood to a boil when the alternatives such as C-Span or PBS is right there before you.....

I'll tell you why, YOU'RE FUCKING MASOCHISTS! You love the anger these guy's bring to you... Peggy Noonan flat-out tortures you with delight! Joe kill the intern Scarborough spanks your ass cherry red and you squeal in ecstasy! Each time Tweety says "shove it" you moan and moan until you drop an orgasmic A-Bomb! I have no other explanation for this phenomena?

Network Barbie

1. Don't look at me, I watched PBS
The networks only lavished a solitary hour on it. PBS gave it 3 hours. People who watched the networks only saw Clinton's speech; it was good, but they missed the real highlight, which was Carter's speech.

It was also nice to see David Brooks look like he's swallowed a mildewed slug. I think he knows what his little tin Jesus is up against, and it aint pretty.

Domme Barbie is a nice touch, by the way.

2. I won't watch anything but C-Span!
Even on PBS, they talked over some of the speeches and tributes. Of course, they have to if they're going to make comments at all, but I much preferred the lack of commentary. This is OUR week and I don't want it spoiled by listening to idiots!

4. I Watched C-Span and PBS most of the night.
I got disgusted when the Reverend from SC was speaking and NOONE was covering him. THe media whines that nobody knows who John Kerry is. No shit. You don't WANT us to know who he is.

PS. Where did you get the Tranny Coulter Barbie?

5. I watched C-SPAN MOST of the time last night for the big
speeches....I just couldn't handle Tweety or CNN anymore. However, I was up at 5:00 this morning, turned on CNN and the FIRST thing I saw/heard was Bob Franken at the convention, live, he said the Democrats were IDOL WORSHIPING last night when Bill Clinton gave his speech. THEN, Carol Costello....The Bush bashing, the Bush bashing, the Bush bashing, the Bush bashing.......SHE WAS DISGUSTING! They have gotten their talking points from the WH today and one of them is OBVIOUSLY to say "Bush Bashing" over and over and over. I switched over to C-SPAN for Washington Journal as soon as it came on! Damn, I HATE our media!
