STATE OF THE UNION -- 2005 [Live Thread]
2/2/05

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.

Many of us disagee with the President on immigration policy. Nothing new was mentioned tonight. We've debated that at length. We will continue to do so. Let's not turn this thread into a bicker fest.
Those of you who join me in disagreeing with the President on immigration, let's be reasoned in our approach here.
Thanks.

Committing the crimes Americans are unwilling to commit.
Give it up George, seal the borders and do your constitutional duty.

I don't understand...every year the President, whoever it is, says healthcare must be more available and more affordable and every year it gets less accessible and expensive. HMOs more powerful every year, for one.

2018 paying out more than taking in.
