Obama bumping American Idol.
Networks reluctantly shuffle for Obama speech

85260825 Networks are pulling their shows over to the side of the road to make room for the lights and sirens of president Barack Obama's latest primetime address.

Obama will take to the air next Tuesday evening on four broadcast networks and bump the most popular series on television, Fox's "American Idol."

I wonder what he could be announcing? Must be hugely important huh?

4. Oh what will the media talk about the next morning
With no American Idol they will have nothing to discuss on the morning shows.


I wish Obama would bump more reality shows off the TV.

5. Too bad he didn't bump that bachelor show off the air.
What a scumbag. He was a complete waste of time and I'm glad I didn't spend a single second of my life watching that show.

I hope he keeps the bumping of American Idol down to a minimum though. We want those teeny boppers to grow into Democrats after all.

7. they will. the teenyboppers on idolforums.com have politics forum
and they're 85% pro-obama, and had mostly pro obama signatures, and were upset about prop 8 passing.

the upcoming generation who will be running things in the future cannot be part of a party where gay people are treated as second class citizens. even republicans under 30 are more supportive of gay marriage, ive read, than democrats over 65.
