"I live in a republic where once a year, our President delivers an address, the State of the Union, that beyond being mandated by the Constitution, also helps to constitute our union by focusing all eyes on all three branches of our government. The annual address sets the tone for the year ahead, and helps remind us of our elected leaders' solemn obligation to communicate their intentions to a public they so often fail while in office." So shut the fuck up about Obama potentially pre-empting the premiere of "Lost," Season Six, okay?
You never got over ChAAAHHHrlie's death.
It is not mandated that it happen once a year, or even that it must be a speech, though!
Like if Obama wanted to there is nothing in the Constitution stopping him from delivering the SOTU as a "viral video."
Maybe instead of a viral video, he could just do it during a commercial break. It's gotta be better than a trailer for Tooth Fairy.
Hurley dies, dude.
Stop it.
You've been hanging out with that Doree person again haven't you?
That's good news, because if there's one thing that guy sucks at, it's giving speeches.
Is it crazy talk to ask if ABC can reschedule Lost? I really want to see that premiere.
As long as he doesn't pre-empt the Michael Cera/Jersey Shore MTV special, I'm cool.
And it makes for just as wonderful a drinking game as watching Lost!
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE APPEAL OF THIS PARTICULAR TELEVISED PROGRAMME.
Maybe you're just confused. Have you watched all 103 episodes in order from the beginning yet?
I watched three and stopped. It's 'Gilligan's Island' meets 'Twin Peaks.'
Amen! That show makes less sense than a parrot with legwarmers.
If it were actually Gilligan's Island meets Twin Peaks, that would be the recipe for oneheckuvashow.
The show lost me when the ah hum "heavy set" guy never lost weight while living on a deserted island. NOT ONE POUND!!!
I think he was hoarding mangoes and avocados, and mashing it into big tubs of mayo left over from the Cuban missile crisis
I'm tired of people telling me lost is just really intellectual and complicated. No. It's poorly written. Jesus.
True. But it's also wildly entertaining. It's got everything!
Why! That makes no sense! No sense at all! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!
STRONGLY AGREE
THIS BETTER BE A FAT JOKE OTHERWISE I AM VERY ANGRY AT ALL OF YOU. EVEN CAT.
This was probably the worst title/Twitter link ever.
Definitely.
Lost was Bush's favorite television program.
So apparently they're moving the SOTU for some shitty NBC show by the guy who did the Star Trek remake? What the fuck is wrong with America?
Can we get ABC to pre-empt the Republican response?
this just in: obama cancels presidential state of the union address. maybe he's a fan of the show, too.
I hate everyone who says bad things about Lost.
I keep trying to tell people the Idiocracy premise was unlikely, given that the bigger historical picture indicates increasing levels of literacy, etc., but things like this keep happening, and I just don't know anymore.
+1
He better not pre-empt "Ow, My Balls!" then there will be trouble.
Is that the new name America's Funniest Home Video is using this season?
(that was supposed to be in response to "LondonLee" above. Phooey.)
