Who is going to watch the RNC next week?

[Lil Missy]

I will be watching. I wouldn't miss it!

I think it will go over like a fart in church, and I sure wouldn't want to miss them making asses of themselves.

I also want to see if it will at least fill an auditorium holding 10K, without blow-up dolls.

Oh, and I plan to have a barf bag handy, just in case.

[Generic Brad]

1. I'll be watching out for them

But I don't think that is the same as watching them. They are invading my neighborhood. I am just hoping for peaceful coexistence.

[Lil Missy]

3. Oh, they have invaded my neighborhood too. I live on a busy corner, and

people kept stealing the Democratic signs in my yard during the primaries.

I had several, and kept putting one back up. :D

[Generic Brad]

12. I'll trade places with you

The parade route of the protesters is on the other side of the block I love on. That is the edge of the 'free speech' zone. I'd rather worry about a yard sign getting taken over possible riots on the street where I live.

[ikojo]

32. If there are riots it will be due to heavy handed

police tactics, of course the protesters will be blamed.

[mokawanis]

2. I'll watch some of it

but I'm expecting to watch in small doses, lest I become ill.

[Lil Missy]

9. Thus, why I intend to keep a barf bag handy.

[madeline_con]

4. I want to see which has beens they trot out to scream, "WAR!"

And the doofy, pasty, dumb, nosepicking, bible thumping, bathroom liaison having, stoopid hat wearing, gas guzzler driving fools who cheer while McCain't stares at Palin's T&A.

[Lil Missy]

14. "bathroom liason having" ... Oh. please tell me that Larry Craig will be a featured speaker.

Also, Mark Foley, and Tom Delay.

I'd be tickled shitless! Oh, my heart be still ...

[madeline_con]

5. DUPE again damn

[Left Is Write]

6. Not a chance.

I couldn't stomach it.

[LeftyMom]

7. I have to, for a class.

Just the speeches though, not all the in between stuff, video montages, interviews of delegates in stupid hats, etc.

[Lil Missy]

16. Just curious, did you also have to watch the DNC for that class?

[LeftyMom]

18. Of course.

[madeline_con]

8. Is anyone else's button broken?

[Lil Missy]

17. NO SEX THREADS!!!!

:P

[LeftyFingerPop]

10. Yes I will watch some of it...

morbid curiosity. :hi:

[Lil Missy]

19. Hey buddy!

:hi:

[LeftyFingerPop]

21. How are you?

:hi:

[Lil Missy]

23. Doing great! I haven't been sick for a long time. I'm glad you are doing better too!

I am, however, putting on weight. x(

[LeftyFingerPop]

25. Thanks! I'm glad you are well. I'm putting on weight too...

don't worry about it. We'll need the extra weight for the winter chill!

[billyoc]

11. Their tortured cries will be like a sweet, sweet lullabye.

[mokawanis]

13. I'm sure McSame is working hard on wiriting his speech

which will basically sound like this "fear, war, fear, war, terrorism, fear, war!!"

[Lil Missy]

20. terra, terra, terra! And "noo-cu-lar", so as not to offend the bonehead in chief.

And I seriously doubt he is writing his own speech. :eyes:

[FloridaJudy]

15. I'll catch the highlights on C-Span

But refuse to watch it live. Neither my blood pressure nor my equanimity can take that much abuse.

[elshiva]

22. I'd rather poke out my eyes with a sharp stick.

:puke:

[Lil Missy]

24. "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer" - Godfather

Although, I don't watch Fixed News or the puke shows, nor listen to puke radio shows.

But I think the RNC will be pathetic, and I have to see that.

[elshiva]

26. Ok, Lil Missy, you're a better woman than me, then.

I just can't stomach it. I understand where you are coming from, though.

:pals:

buffy

[Lil Missy]

27. Oh puh-leeze! You flatter me.

It's not warranted and neither am I deserving.

But, thank you for the compliment, all the same.

:pals:

[elshiva]

28. Seriously, your fortitude is admirable.

:pals: You are welcome.


buffy

[Lil Missy]

29. I'm just stubborn, bull-headed, and opinionated.

It has gained me many friends over the years, and just as many enemies.

[elshiva]

30. You are a fighter, you keep fighting.

That's a good thing. :hug: :toast:

buffy

[Lil Missy]

31. I am glad to see the "Yes" overtaking the "No"

For now.

But, something tells me that my poll will be swarmed by morning.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

33. Not with MY blood pressure problems.

I'd love to keep an eye on these SOBs but I'm going to have to rely on news reports.

[Eurobabe]

34. CANCELLED, due to LACK OF INTEREST

actually due to Gustav. Bush/Crashcart NOT attending. Shorter and more low key event? Stay tuned.

[Lil Missy]

38. Awwww. Wht a shame they would have such bad luck.

[Blue-Jay]

35. I'm going to watch, laugh, and yell at the TV.

<--- Glutton for punishment.

[txwhitedove]

39. Me too! The kids hate it when It do that....."Mom, WHO are you talking to?"

:rofl:

[NJmaverick]

36. What I dread isn't the RNC convention, it's all the posts here on DU

about the convetion. I am sure there will be a million hand wringing posts crying about the media coverage and all the aweful things the repukes say about us. It's polics we have our convention talking about how good we are and how bad they are, and they have theirs doing the same thing. Yet so many people fail to understand or appreciate this simple point.

[Chovexani]

37. I'll be watching the trainwreck with popcorn in hand

Much like I watched the 700 Club daily during the Clinton years. That was some funny, funny shit.

[MrScorpio]

40. I'll be watching it

It'll be just like watching a giant bowl of rice pudding

[Ellen Forradalom]

41. What should be the RNC drinking game?

What's the big phrase that's gonna get us all shitfaced?

[flvegan]

42. It's always good to view the opposition at work.

Regardless of the toll it takes on the stomach.

[CatholicEdHead]

43. Apparently no RNC to watch this year

[Lil Missy]

45. ??????

:shrug:

[DS1]

44. NOBODY!

[texanwitch]

46. No, just give me the funny details.

There isn't enough money to make me watch republicans.

[Kat45]

47. No fucking way!

I can't stand listening to the lies, lies, and more lies coming out of their mouths. I get too fucking angry and shout at them on the TV. I don't need that shit; I'll read the lowlights in the paper, and on DU, the next day.

[Lil Missy]

48. OMFG! I am watching the repeats now, and I had to eat something the first time, lest I'd puke.

The dip shit in chief? Well, I always want to slap that arrogant grin off his face. And this was the longest time I ever listened to his nauseating voice in 8 years.

And LIEberman. UGH! That pig had the nerve to call himself a Democrat several times!

:puke: :puke: :puke:

What I DID enjoy, was that an auditorium for 10K was half empty. Hmmmmm. LOL! After Obama held 85K and standing room last week!

McAsshole is toast. :)

[regularguy]

49. I used to.

I used to watch all of both conventions. But after what the 'pubs did to this country (and world) over the last eight years I can't stand to look at them. I still watch the Dems, though.

[southpaw]

50. I can't...

Now that it's going on, I just can't bring myself to watch it.

It does look kinda chintzy compared to the Democratic convention, though. :7
