"How Much of the Democratic Convention Are You Planning on Watching?"

Let me tell you what I did watch last night.  I watched the television talking heads during Pelosi's speech but I did note from the visuals that most of the crowd went about their business, many with their backs turned to her.  I deduced from that how stimulating the speech must have been.  I did listen to the opening with Dean (He needs a top hat and then could do a very credible W.C. Fields imitation).

I really cannot stand hearing the name Obama again -- I must have heard it several thousand times in the last few months since news commentators cannot put together two sentences without saying the name 'Obama' in reverent tones.  So I skipped the Michele speech. 

I found that I have this great gadget on my Tivo that lets me see a number of small screens so I could nimbly skip about and find a channel without Michele.  I did note the fairly negative commentary going on about the polls.

I look forward to the Hillary Clinton speech.  I think that if they let them vote fairly, she might still get the nomination.  And Bill will be interesting.  I don't plan on listening to the Obama speech -- I've heard it.

so I can consider and present myself fully informed.  I sure had enough of the Clinton’s and I like to consider myself independent.  Weigh everything that the candidates say (with a HUGE grain of salt) and hope to select the best for the good of the country, not just me!

I hope to watch as long as I don't get annoyed by what I see and that it does not interfere with my regular TV watching.

The candidates bashing is something I can barely tolerate.... to think that I used to ground my kids for tatle tales of each other.

God (or any other superior being if you believe in or not) help us! 

I hope my adult kids and future generations one day can experience a peaceful Country as I did. 

May the best man win for our sake!
