STATE OF THE UNION -- 2005 [Live Thread]

2/2/05

[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.

We have a god-given right to those jobs!

I can't wait for Pelosi to tell us about her time commanding a swift boat.

And Christmas in Cambodia...

[onyx]

Right!
And, I am not planning to watch
or listen to any of the analysis either.

I heard and saw it for myself. LOL.

[Wormwood]

TV is now OFF .. no mute... OFF

You're missing some grade-A comedy.

[nhoward14]

Except Mr. Rogers was never hiding a knife behind his back.

[Pan_Yans Wife]

WHO CARES WHAT THEY SAY? They are in the minority in both houses! Hillary is their best choice in '08... she will LOSE. Dean will be the DNC chairman, that'll only draw in the loonies. Nancy and Harry are irrelevant.

[pollyg107]

I agree - his very best speech ever. When he really believes in what he is saying, he is very articulate. Of course, I love him even when he isn't articulate. I still have tears in my eyes.

[prairiebreeze]

Dingy Harry says that Europe's economy post WWII is a powerhouse.

LIAR! They are too socialist to be a powerhouse of anything, and their economies are in the tank.

[F14 Pilot]

JDAM is not gonna bring freedom to Iran

[Brimack34]

Do the Dems have any real Men? Always these soft spoken deebs.

[NorCalRepub]

[paulat]

WAIT A MINUTE...AL GORE invented the Internet!!!

"Hey, someone has to look out for the best interests of our astronauts on mars.

She is so stupid, and so loud, and so... typical Leftist. Who is voting for her.

On an unrelated note, you chose the screen name I wanted years ago. Excellent choice friend. I have been a student of the president of Washington College since I was an undergrad.

[pocat]

Was it just me, or did the microphone look like Marvin the Martian?

[cajungirl]

I don't think the truthis what people object to.

You are an attention seeking young man and are tiresome and ultimately boring to adults.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

" IT'S MR. MAGOO!"

Or, Mr Rodgers on downers !
" It's a crappy day in your crappy neighborhood."
Are there any masculine role models in the Democrat Party ?
Oh, I forgot- Hillary.

[KarlInOhio]

Aiiiggggh! They want to spend on federally funded infrastructure. Think "Big Dig" x 10.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Great Speech by President Bush.

Too bad the US Senate let the traitor be admitted.

I support President Bush and I voted for him in 2000 and 2004

I'd gladly take a bullet for him.

I DO NOT support the traitor AND those who remain silent about him.

It's an insult to the 58,000 + names on The Wall

AND to every Viet Nam Vet who served with honor.

[Diddle E. Squat]

Pelosi is such a Saturday Night Live wide-eyed parody of herself.

[DJ88]

No, really listen to them. It makes George W. Bush look 10x better than they are. Which of course, he is.

Not a word about Iraqi Freedom from Harry yet. Way to go, loser. (Harry, not you!)
