the APPLAUSE that TURNS MY STOMACH
When the incompetent criminal buffoon currently occupying the White House enters to make his speech tonight, resounding applause will fill the chamber.

I don't give a shit about tradition. Every clap of the hand signals approval and heaps shame on our national government. The only applause that rat bastard deserves is when he's frog-marched off to prison.

I don't think I can watch tonight. I might throw a heavy object at my television, then vomit.

1. That's not applause
It's the crackling of the bonfire with Bush's effigy.

It's usually off camera.

3. Too bad it's just an effigy.
Burning is too good for him.

2. I'm looking forward to some "boos" and "hisses".
Then again, the only thing that would satiate my appetite at this point would be some bi-partisan chair throwing.

11. How sweet it would be
if everyone in the chamber turned their back on him, then walked out.

13. It creeps me out that they give this criminal credence. Would they give a Ted Bundy this kind of
audience?

8. Only one side of the building is applauding
Notice that the camera isn't panning across the room.

10. Too bad Pelosi was obligated to say it was her "great honor"
to introduce him.

12. I thought I saw every Democrat stand just now when he mentioned Afghanistan
Maybe it's my TV set that's gone GOP on me.
