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.

What happened to that Ahmad Chalabi guy? Wasn't he there last time?

Seems like you never hear about him any more.

He's doing a nice pre-emptive strike on the scumbag 'rebuttal'.

Honestly, how much loathing do you have for Democrats right now?

Yes, very well said.

And this one was good too: "Freedom in Iraq will make America safer for generations to come."

Beautiful!!

It's easy to make a great speach when you believe in what you are saying and what you have done!

"We will not set an artificial timetable for leaving Iraq because that would embolden the terrorists, who will wait us out."

Actually I don't think media know what hit them
Dubya in 40 minutes has lay ground on reform of Social Security

Smack chat Terrorist nation like Syria Iran as main course
All major networks with exception of Fox news are still hitting the bottle or hit the coke line
