I don't have a strong enough stomach to watch it.

But I'll sit back and enjoy your commentary as I enjoy my wine.

this thing is going to last an HOUR?  holy  . . . 

he is going to try to sound more "positive", instead of doing the chicken little, which has been his shtick for the past month.

I'm not watching any of it. I refuse. They will all disappoint me and make me sad. It's inevitable.

I'm sort of in a woe-is-me mode this evening. Just ignore me.

I can't watch it either.  The man repulses me in more than a creepy way.  He's more than a decent Christian should have to endure.

Clinton tickled my vomit switch, for sure, but nothing compared to what this fraud does to me.

Wrong place for this................this doesn't conform to the TOU of this area.

What will be discussed here has nothing to do with news but the opinions of those listening and posting...............nothing newsworthy is involved in this

Is this the "official" thread to talk about the speeches? There seems to be one in politics as well. I only ask because I wish to partake in the "Obama speech, live thread and drinking game".

Obama's drinking words:
1 drink for the word "sacrifice"
1 drink for the word "Uhhh"
2 drinks for the words "common purpose"
3 drinks for the words "shared sacrifice"

Jindal's drinking words:
1 drink for the word "alternative"
1 drink for the word "conservative"
2 drinks for the word "nationalisation"
3 drinks for the word "porkulous"

You have two minutes to gather your beers or wine. I'm going with 7&7's so I may not make it to Jindal's speech.  :o

this speech is by definition a breaking news event.  stop being a hemorrhoid about it.  if you hadn't tried to be so cute with your title, maybe I would have known what the hell it was.

I'm slowly working my way through a bottle of red. I started about 3 hours ago. I'll be passed out within five minutes if I played this game.

Why? You won't miss much.

The government will save you. I am at the helm of the government. Worship me and keep your mouth shut.

There. I just summed it up for you.

I read an article a couple of weeks ago that said he hasn't been on time for pretty much anything. But when you are busy healing the sick, time gets away from you.

Almost all airline pilots are union guys. US Air for sure.

My dad went from Reagan voting Air Force man to Dem leaning union man for a big airline.  :(  (meh, God love him, he's still the coolest guy I know)  :cheersmate:
