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.

It wasn't that long ago that the DIMS were painting their gloom and doom picture of Social Security...starving old folks and all that. They just HATE it when Dubya actually gets things stirred up to actually get something DONE about it. (Much like the Welfare brouhaha...which the Gingrich GOP took care of and let Klinton take credit for.)

"Talking right OVER the heads of the democrats to the YOUNGER people..."
And not leaving it up to the media to explain to us, that's the main thing. We could all turn blue waiting for that to happen.

The money is yours, and the government can never take it away. How can anyone, not "divorced from reality" of course, argue against that?

Soc. Security was always the Third Rail. No one sitting in office was ever supposed to touch it, let alone restructure it.
Bush is a man of principal who uses his office to protect the futures of young workers.
