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.

Heh, I sent him a piece of my mind about 15 minutes ago to that very same address.
To: Joe Hadenuf
If brutal tyranny ever took hold here in America, would you just sit by and take it? We all know you're rooting for it, Joe!

Cute quip, but you failed to answer the question.
The Iraqis stood by for years, under tyranny and a nasty dictator and failed to stand up to it.
Would you do the same here in America howling? Or would you be willing to stand up and make the big sacrifice for freedom, as opposed to what the Iraqis did for many years?

This pres isn't sexy, that seems bogus and cheap to me somehow. He is like the father our country. I swear, he is going up there into the league of the greats. He's both.
and I'm an old gramma with 15 g'kids.
Nothing bogus about it - what is, is.

Is there a real reason to give this person the time of day--or do you guys just argue all the time like brothers?

"They clearly opted not to do this on their own." Could you *clearly* spell out how you wanted them to do that? Really, tell me how JOE the Iraqui would have stood up to the Saddam Hussein tyranny in Iraq of the last 30 years. I'm all ears.
To: Joe Hadenuf
Joe, if you were somebody's who opinion I valued, I might consider discussing it with you.
But you're not; you're a mean-spirited embarassment to conservatism.
And you're heartless.

"This is what I feel the two gals were doing on this thread.............thank you" Since you seem to know Peggy's "history" so well, do you know anything of the "two gals" on this thread you keep referring to? Do you know anything about them?
To: rlmorel

Yes, immigration issues don't even win Republican primaries in the super conservative state of Utah.
