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.

Oh, in that case, allow me to summarize:
The president has spent 45 minutes kicking the Democrats in the balls.
Stay tuned.

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.

I think this is one of the best SOTU address I've ever heard. Amen. Say, it's been a while.

The text has many poetic devices. In content it is the equal of all his previous SOTU addresses.

The democrats are watching Bush take away all of their ideas. They are left with nothing to do but whine and look like sourpusses.
ultimate goal of ending tyranny in our world. This man has a VISION and the guts to make it happen!
