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.

I would hope the immigration comments are non-existant until he addresses that issue. If he doesn't they shouldn't appear here.
Those of you who join me in disagreeing with the President on immigration, let's be reasoned in our approach here.
Thanks.

I won't be posting much but I'm surfing around and CBS inserted as many negatives as they could such as This is a friendlier reception than if things had gone badly on Sunday in Iraq, and, He'll have a hard time ramming through his plans.
On to ABC where Peter wonders aloud how realistic the plans are.

I think you're right. I thought I saw him turn and go to the other side of the aisle just before reaching her.
