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.

LOL, that Groundhog Day reference was a big mistake, because it so ironically represents the Dem's statements.

Thank God for Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi!

Now, he's comparing the Bush Speech to Groundhog Day. What an idiot.

Since the last couple of years. The Dems feel there is safety in numbers. They are afraid of Bush. LOL

Nice to see the dems replaced Tommy the Undertaker with Harry the Grave Digger.

Senator Reid.. I want to be just like you.... I wish to wear lipstick and always bend the truth to fool those that vote the democrat ticket...especially those that wish to socialize America and "give" healthcare, retirement, and education to all... After all these benefits all fall from the sky and into our pockets don't they?

...no one really has to pay for it...do they?

Pelosi and Reid forgot to say MINORITY leader.

They are both "reality-challenged".

"GUARANTEED?" Is he insane?... Oh yeah, I forgot, he is. Sheeeesh -- what a bonehead.

I thought it was a very good speech. The dems have nowhere to go, no retreat, no side shuffle, nothing and nowhere.

Reid and Pelosi look like the night of the living dead wing: without blood, without outlook, enthusiasm or anything remotely resembling competency.

Agreed, Senator Lieberman has dinity and respect. I'm sure he wakes up evry other day asking where his Party went off the cliff.

You're missing some grade-A comedy.

I thought that the best they do was C-movie myself. Besides, I don't want to lose dinner.
