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.

Cordless Keyboards are around $99 and worth it. What a country! True, true, true, but will I have to get a second receiver from Logitech (I have a cordless trackball)?

I am surprised about Michelle Malkin, I have always thought she was really good, and did a lot of research for her articles and books---I do know that she is REALLY upset about the illegal immigrant problem--
probably Bush's biggest conservative critic about it..

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich called on House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi Wednesday afternoon to change her rebuttal to tonight's State of the Union Address, saying the language she intends to use referring to U.S. troops in Iraq as "an occupying force" is "outrageous."

Earlier he was saying that Repubs are bad b/c we want less govt. and just kept talking down on the fact that Bush wants OUR money to stay w/ us.

Nice excerpts.
Isn't it nice we don't have to wait for the speech to be delivered to see what is going to be said?
