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.

This President will go down in history as the greatest ever.

I AGREE!

I've voted for presidents since 1976, and lived through the ones before. GWB is the best!

Did he just slap Kerry?

Sure sounded like it to me. More of a WHOMP than a slap, though. (Think F'n got it?) LOL

President Bush gave his answer to Dusty Reid and Nancy Pelosi. "NO! I AM NOT GOING TO SET A TIMETABLE FOR LEAVING IRAQ", and telling them why was just magnificently put....easily understoood, for even those two partisan pricks.

I too was shocked at how little response from the dems regarding Israel and the Palestinians---they just don't like him.

I'm surprised we haven't crashed the FR server.

Thank John Robinson and the people who donated in FReepathons. John recently got done putting in a bunch of servers (IIRC, close to doubling capacity).
