For the record.

Every year of my presidency, we've reduced the growth of non-security discretionary spending, and last year you passed bills that cut this spending.

So, these charts are not true?

And one of the main sources of reaction and opposition is radical Islam -- the perversion by a few of a noble faith into an ideology of terror and death. Still politically correct, but I take it as a little tougher than "High-Jacked Religion of Peace" Thanks for this service, Cboldt.

Worth repeating:


"Lincoln could have accepted peace at the cost of disunity and continued slavery. Martin Luther King could have stopped at Birmingham or at Selma, and achieved only half a victory over segregation. The United States could have accepted the permanent division of Europe, and been complicit in the oppression of others. Today, having come far in our own historical journey, we must decide: Will we turn back, or finish well?"

Congress did not act last year on my proposal to save Social Security -- (extremely long, drawnout, chicken*** Democrat applause)

Interesting that they get all of their perks, but are unwilling to take care of the "little guy". And they think that the American people are too stupid to see it.

Thank you. I watched the address live, but this will help me pick up on what I might have missed. It was an excellent speech.

Do you have a transcript of the Governor of Virginia's response? Much better than any other Democrat's response in the past.

I didn't see it, but I did hear it on the radio. I loved it. If I had had the luxury of being in front of a TV, I would've looked for Hillary Lenin when he came to the part about Justice Alito. Did the cameras alight on her surly face at all when that happened? How about the luminiscent (albeit a bit long) countenance of His Eminence John Filibuster Kerry?

Thanks in advance for any/all replies.

The camera panned to her as Mr. Bush joked about two of his father's favorite people turning 60, Bubba and him...no kidding...she looked like she was passing gas. Someone behind her fell over and the Secret Service rushed in.

[primeval patriot]

Dangit, you beat me by 33 seconds.

[definitelynotaliberal]

Most certainly you are lying - and I am laughing, so we'll let it pass. Thank you for your efforts.

[aft_lizard]

key words are non-security discretionary spending, and in fact it is the truth but non-discretionary and defense spending has increased.

[Cboldt]

Dangit, you beat me by 33 seconds.

Two different sources to boot.

In at least one past year, there was a copy up before the speech was a quarter over.

[NRA2BFree]

Thanks for posting the transcript!

A lot of republicans are going to say that -- and I have to think that will make the liberal democrats pretty upset. after all, what good is a "democrat response" if republicans are happy with it?

Kaine is a pretty liberal person for Virginia, and he is more personally liberal than he projected to get elected. We have yet to see the full extent of that disingenuous part of his nature, but after spending a year promising not to raise any taxes, and in fact to VETO any tax increase, until the transportation trust fund was protected by the constitution, he just after 1 week in office proposed a billion a year in new transportation taxes.

But a liberal virginian is still much better than a typical democrat.

My daughter said she had trouble concentrating because of his eyebrow (she had to watch for her civics class) and my wife came over, watched for about 20 seconds, got a funny laugh, and left saying something about creepy.

Yes, I got impatient because there wasn't one posted already.

>>"Congress did not act last year on my proposal to save Social Security -- (applause) -- <<

It was at this very moment, as the clueless Dimwits shamelessly showed their asses, that I realized that what I have hoped for has been accomplished: The RAT party is lost in a fog so dense, a hatred for this country so vile, that they are done as a major political force.

Sure, they can make themselves heard, they can preen and pose for the cameras, tell us in their haughty tones what is best for America, but they can no longer claim any high ground in any argument. They are doomed, and to think it was the swaggering, idiot cowboy, from Texas, that finished them off in less than two terms.

It is a glorious day, indeed.
