Bush gives his farewell address tonight.  Will you watch?

Of course, I’ll watch – if only for priceless blogging material.

  1. Sounds like the perfect opportunity to dust off and open up the liveblog.

    Rules for watching the speech:

    1) Remove any small objects from the area that might damage the screen if used as a projectile.

    2) Keep a pan or bucket nearby in case needed for sudden illness (BDS).

    3) Use washable markers to draw Hitler or Hussein mustaches on the screen. Bunny ears or Pinocchio noses are also fun.

    4) Be disrespectful. Remember, Bush still has the support of 75% of repubs. Salute him often with middle finger.

    5) Do an extensive single malt tasting before the broadcast starts.

    I’m not sure I can watch. I’m still ill from his last press conference. He thinks the problem with Katrina was that he didn’t land AF1 in Baton Rouge and that we rescued 30,000 people from their roofs so that meant we had a fast response. WTF?

  5. 6) Do an extensive single-malt tasting DURING the broadcast every time Bush says something ridiculously trite or predictable.

    I just heard some of Biden’s farewell to the Senate. Whatever anybody says about the guy, he is his own man.

    What? Bush is going to interrupt my stories.

    MM,

    I have to go to work the next day. I can’t possibly drink that much. I wonder if there is a Bush speech drinking game. If so, I’ll bet “kept us safe” is in there.

    NOT Watching. Can’t stand it.

    Hey the snow is back.

    Hey the snow is back.

    No it’s not. 😉

    Thank God for on Demand

    I’ll be working the PT job, but even if I was home I wouldn’t tune in. Why start now? I’d be watching the Flyers try to right the ship against Tampa Bay.

    I heard that this address will be 15 minutes long, so I guess we won’t be getting a tearful apology and quick exist.
