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.

Hey we live North of SF and are represented by the likes of boxer, pelosi, feinstein, woolsey. You bet we're sensitive about being represented by the left coast reps from the kennedy-kerry kabal. They're all kkrraaazyyy.

CSPAN is really going to town with this Harry and Nancy Show video. I can't recall how many times they've shown it.

O'Reilly's discussing how the Pope did not give Bush his (sought after) blessing for the war in Iraq.

And, this is relevant...how?

I have another question. How did Hillary know that she had a 24 hour bug, before 24 hours had gone by?

Things that make you go .......hmmmmmmmm.

Ron Reagan is going to be on MSNBC after the speech.

Thanks for the warning. I'll be sure to avoid listening to that twit.

I'm really hoping GWB gives a good speech tonight. To be honest, his last couple of SOTU speeches have been less than inspiring, IMO. $15 billion for AIDS in Africa, hydrogen cars, steriods in baseball......

It does get tiring seeing these Johnny-One-Notes who proudly march side-by-side with StormFront, wittingly or unwittingly.

She was a real disappointment there. Normally she is right on the money.

What's the odds that President Bush dips his finger in the purple ink?
