I'll give it a 'B.' Sounded nice, but how much will really happen and how does he plan to make those things happen? Like most State of the Union's their weren't many specifics. Most of whats been in SOU's historically have been empty promises.
I gave him a B too. It dragged a little, he lost my attention on more than one occasion. I noticed him trying to hide his smile which some view as a smirk.
I was moved by his emotion after he read the words of the patriot that gave his life for our freedom. As the cameras panned to the family, Bush was obviously moved to tears...but we weren't allowed more than a glimpse of this wonderful Presidents raw emotion.
I love that man!
Get back to work!
I gave it a B also....very good on foreign policy and not so good on domestic policy. The president is clearly not as engaged when it comes to domestic stuff, other than the tax cuts. But the health care system in this country is out of whack, and I wish he would say more about it in his speeches. He doesn't seem to push his HSA's much outside of giving it lip service in his SOTU speeches. His rhetoric on energy sounded a bit Al Goreish to me....what happened to ANWAR? He should have pounded it home last night.
It is up to Congress. The Pres can only recommend.
