I've been watching on the Canadian station. No Bush, better coverage, and none o' that USA! USA! shit. The fencing competition was fantastic.
Posted by iamcoyote at August 10, 2008 07:52 AMGreat minds and all that Mary....I just wrote a rant in yesterday's open thread about this very "bugme" issue. I'm reposting it here...(feel free to delete if you feel necessary).
Now I like watching the Olympics..well parts of it such as the athletes performances in sports like gymnastics, swimming, track and field....but I absolutely positively despise the fact that Nero and his ladies are over there apparently using the media to upstage all the athletes (complete with frat house footage and multiple pictures of the Boyking hanging around the US athletes either glaring enviously at their medals and/or arses...for the later see women's beach volleyball) Gawd get the eff out of there Junior and family...you've got absolutely no business over there except as murkan tourist...this is about the athletes, not you or your swan song lame duck worst preznit evah legacy rehab tour. And the media should stop giving him any spotlight at all.... everytime NBC even cuts to pictures of them I immediately barf and turn the station and watch something else.
Okay... done I despise Nero Worst preznit evah rant.
Posted by emal at August 10, 2008 08:02 AMDon't mind seeing the Prez on TV. My beef with him is his policies and actions that has shredded the Constitution and the rule of law. No matter what, he, Bush is our president, so what is the problems with seeing him on TV? He was selected/elected to represent us in the world. I don't have a problem seeing him.
Posted by angryman at August 10, 2008 08:23 AMHey, there seems to be quite a net movement on the fake Obama birth certificate. Even the Federal Elections Committee is trying to determine if Obama is eligible to run for President.
Back door for Hillary?
Boy, wouldn't that be something.

Could you keep your filthy "bad mommy" fantasies to yourself, mucky? This is a family blog!
Posted by iamcoyote at August 10, 2008 09:27 AMActually I thought W did fairly well visiting Keri Walsh and Misty May. This may be the only skill he has, sports cheerleading. If only we could get him out of the White House (along with his cronies) and put him on the sports applause tour.

Channeling Stalin?
Posted by Bagley at August 10, 2008 09:47 AMSorry...he and his families' smirks and empty looking eyes are the last mugs I wanna see when I tune into the Olympics. You know it's about the athletes and not some sorry cheerleading elite athlete wannabe.
Posted by emal at August 10, 2008 10:58 AMI'm not sure why they keep showing Bush and the clan. First, he has no official connection to the Olympics, is not a member of any team participating in the Olympics, and is not the parent of anyone competing in the Olympics. No one cares that he is there, as the vocal point are the athletes. What is the point of constantly showing the little narcissistic jerk?

I have the same thoughts about Obama coverage.
Posted by Rev Larry at August 10, 2008 12:54 PMDoes bush have plans to visit the Chinese Tourist Tower of Death?
uRcoyote!, I actually have a VHS tape entitled "Back Door Hillary" ...it was 1 of 100 videos and 10 lbs of chocolate that were included in my "Happy Hedonist" start up kit.
Posted by TIKI AL at August 10, 2008 01:18 PMEverytime I see the image of bush, even if it's on a piece of toast or a leaky thermopayne window I wanna puke.
You're not angry enough to live up to your blog handle, "angry"man. Why not give it to someone who is REALLY PISSED OFF!
Posted by TIKI AL at August 10, 2008 01:27 PMFigures Coyote, not liking Americans rooting their athletes on. Just figures. Great victory for the Men's relay!
Posted by peter at August 10, 2008 08:54 PMWell, . . . . these historical videos will serve a purpose for the miniscule Bu$h library - replacing the extra "My Pet Goat" books.
