I happen to think that the President's speech is slightly more important than a rerun, and that Mr. Bush has more important things to worry about than inconveniencing a few tv show fans.
But I do think it's odd that they would bump a premiere in order to show a repeat.
I can't imagine that the President will speak for two solid hours. Wouldn't it have made more sense, maybe, to show the first hour of GD at CSI's regularly scheduled time tomorrow, then the second hour during the hour before the season premiere next Thursday?
I would agree with this... if you could guarantee he won't be spewing the same "covering my ineffective, useless ass" rhetoric that he always bellows forth, and with great grammatical atrocities forthcoming. If he had anything useful to say about what's going to be done for the suffering in the South, or how the American public can help, then I'd be all for it.
But I seriously doubt that will be the case.
I totally agree with you Baba. Most people I know (myself included) were disgusted by all levels of government about the response to the hurricane and the aftermath, and this speech isn't going to smooth things out. It should have been give long ago. On a good note, maybe more ineffetive "leaders" will be resigning/fired. Where to start...
I'm more of a LV and Miami fan, but it's not fair to the NY fans.
