STATE OF THE UNION -- 2005 [Live Thread]
2/2/05
Posted on 02/02/2005 3:43:44 PM PST by Timeout
The pre-spin: Bush will spend about 1/2 the speech on foreign policy, 1/2 on domestic, with heavy emphasis on Social Security reform. It's said he will provide a detailed tutorial on the SS system and its problems with a few details on his personal accounts proposal.
Laura's guests are said to be an Afghan voter and an Iraqi voter (too bad there's no Ukrainian wearing an orange hat!).
Should we start a drinking game on how many times the pool camera swings to Hillary? Hmmm. Probably not...it would likely hamper out typing ability.
Word on the blogs has it that the closing part of the speech is a hum-dinger. Set your VCR's.
Report here on outrageous MediaCrat spin before AND after the SOTU. Pictures and screen caps welcome.

Probably not. The Dems are making themselves out to be the Donkeys that they are. Rude, sore losers, and whining, snarling brats.

Slam, slam, slam from those who talked of reforms in the past. Excellent treatment and statement of the problem. Will be difficult to counter successfully.

Everyone, relax! The Dems boo. Dubya speaks confidently and compassionately. He's nailing them. Let the Dems self destruct. They appeal to no one but kooks.

Thank you --- please lets enjoy Bush's speech tonight --
he didn't emphasize the immigration policy THAT much, so lets leave it alone tonight, please?

Probably not, but since Dean is now going to be the head of the DNC, I guess it's going to be allright to "hate Republicans" on national TV.
