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.

I can't figure out if MSNBC has these idiots on to help the republicans or if they think they are credible anaylist. She's very good a making the argument that women are b!tches.

"I was referring to what the president said about *us* earning Iraqis respect." And that's what it's about, Joe. Since you obviously missed the point. But I see you have taken up Ron Jr.'s position of "photo op". BTW, who is *us*?

Thank you for the picture of that moment..I had no idea what RRjr was talking about in his cynical comments as I had missed the speech and then I watched the replay on CSpan...I was so moved, as was anyone with an ounce of humanity..Ron,jr is a disgrace.

I guess I was needing a little levity. She was hysterical. Even her comrade Little Ronnie disagreed with her.

I take a lot of pleasure watching the Rats disintegrate like this. But, I mean, at some point isn't there a grown up in that party to knock some sense into them?! My bet is on Carville. One of these days he's going to put together a video montage of the image they're presenting to the country and he's going to shove it in their faces. And they're not going to like what they see.

Or...maybe not. :)

She and Ron together???? That just makes my hair hurt! The funny thing is that the DIM's are totally oblivious of their destruction--they are truly convinced of their own reality. Of course that reality exists only on Pluto!

These poor people (I live amongst some of them) are being brainwashed that they're going to lose their Social Security ..we're gonna start hearing the "have to eat dogfood" whine from the Rats any minute now.

again........you guys are not getting it and running to defend your position against her and what she wrote....AGAIN< let me say, I disagree with what she said.....ok.....do you get that....I disagree with what she said.......ok...period........now in light of what she has said before and over the last 20 years or so.....why are you still railing over this issue long after everyone has left it aside?....again, not about her specific content but does it give you some pleasure to keep up at it after her long history has proven her an ally for the most part. If you are letting a couple of episodes outweigh an entire lifetime of work than go for it........I just think it is shallow to do so.........OK??.....
