Hi everyone! Here's the plan for Bush's speech tonight.

[Skinner]

I just want to give all of you a heads-up to let you know what's going on tonight during Bush's speech.

We've already turned off new user registration, and it will stay off overnight. That should cut down on most of the disruptors, but there still might be a few. If you see one, just hit the alert link on one of their posts to let the moderators know.

The moderators and I will open an "official Bush Speech thread" for any of you that want to participate in an official play-by-play discussion. When that official thread approaches 100 replies, we'll open up official thread #2. And as necessary we'll open up thread 3, 4, 5, etc. You are not required to discuss Bush's speech in the official threads. If you want to continue to start your own threads, you are welcome to do so.

Please take it easy on the moderators; their job gets pretty tough on days like this.

It's going to be an interesting night. I can't believe I'm actually going to watch this moron speak. :puke:

Good to see all you on DU tonight! :hi:

I turned America to shit, however, my administration has reclassified shit. Shit will now be known as shinola. Oh, and terra, terra, terra.

since I can't stand to look at Bush and his Christo-Fascist minions.

7. Damn, I thought you were going to announce the official drinking game.

1 drink for each "September 11", 2 for every "terra", etc.

[Skinner]

11. LOL. Actually, I think that would be a great idea.
