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.

Will a detailed plan be proposed?

Oh, so now you're saying there is NO PLAN?

Why for MONTHS you're been swearing he's offering amnesty to 10,000,000 people.

Quite frankly put, you're either a liar or ill-informed.

Sounds like he announced tonight he's dumping his amnesty program. Let's hope.

Which he pointed out just after you posted this.

Just before, actually. I'm just paraphrasing.

I wouldn't be surprised to see more than a few Dems jump ship.

He is gutting them.

How could I have known it was possible to make such a mistake? Going to the website www.whitehouse.gov did NOT show the speech as already having been aired. Plus, I was waiting to watch it live, and I knew when he was expected to speak. I admit to my error, and I apologize.

You just made such an astounding statement, for anyone waiting to hear his speech all day.

One thing about President Bush, he says what he means and means what he says. You can take that to the bank. Also, I really think that the american people will get behind him.

Oh, and nevermind that comment I made about thinking the president looked childlike in the past, mk? It never happened.

WHERE THE HECK CAN DEMOCRATS ATTACK THIS? Only way to attack this is to attack the USA and all we hold dear.

Most of them have absolutely no problem with that...
