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.

And now he's calling out Iran as the major sponsor of terror. "I say to the Iranian people tonight, as you stand for your own liberty, America stands with you."

I missed the first part of his speech....did he talk about tort reform?Yes.

I'm sure the lawyers in congress will get right on that.

Yes, he did. The RATs sat on their hands and were stone silent while the Pubs gave a standing O.

Dr. Rice's outfit is Purple. Fitting.

I have never seen a woman I thought could run for president until I saw her.
