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.

First lie, he said an eight year old on a skateboard came up to him and said "Senator Reid, I want to grow up to be just like you."
Ever seen an eight year old that would even recognize a Senator?

Pelosi and Reid forgot to say MINORITY leader.
To: silent_jonny
They said that on MSNBC also....about the dog tags, I mean.
To: Richard Kimball
What the heck is Harry Reid talking about? A restuarant?
They don't stand a chance.

To: Carolinamom
I didn't post the whole time because I wanted to drink every word, and he did not disappoint. I DARE pundits to qibble and denigrate anything he said so forcefully and convincingly. Me neither! It was a great speech. Now the butt-heads give the rebuttal. Could Reid be any more vanilla?

Did you know Harry grew up poor in a town called Search Light Don't say that too loudly close to Kennedy... at least not when he's by a body of water.

I am SO not in the mood to listen to the dumb demo whining after the emotion of the speech.
