WASHINGTON -- While jumping up on cue to cheer during the speech and delivering rave reviews afterward in the Capitol's Statuary Hall, conservative members of Congress were deeply disappointed by George W. Bush Tuesday night. It was not merely that the president abandoned past domestic goals. He appeared to be moving toward bigger government.
The consensus on the Right was that President Bush's fifth State of the Union Address was his worst. Republican congressmen agreed privately that he was most effective at the beginning with his familiar message of why U.S. forces cannot abandon Iraq. The problem for these lawmakers was the rest of the 51-minute presentation, which was filled with unpleasant surprises.

How do you activate a link with just a keyboard and no mouse...
LOL, That right, we should have a ‘Survivor’ type test. We will only take illegals that show they have the courage and the stamina to survive a long swim in shark infested waters.
And since you care so very much...go read EVERY SINGLE Cal. Gov. thread, NOW, for penance.
You gave a vague direction, "go back in time, young man."
You went after me tooth and nail; fang and claw.
Word and insult, guile and taunt. Aye, indeed I did.
A link, a link, a link, your kingdom for a link! If you had said, when all this began, you would have accepted the title of a thread...I would have gone searching for it.
Oh but for the want of forbearance on my part, this intriguing exchange would have never materialized.
All that your baiting and goading did, was turn me against doing that.
Well I just call BS on that. If you could point to a thread title, you would. If for no reason than to prove me a fakir.
Blame yourself...I don't "bring joy" to people who act as you have done.
Oh but you do. Even if my ultimate object, the history of "Donner Party," is not delivered, I shall forever cherish this exchange.
And I never state things with certainty, that I am not certain of.
ROTFL. You are a better poster than I. I slip on all sorts of rhetorical gaffs and missteps.
ME! ME! Look at me! I'm so important!
ME! ME! Look at me! I'm so important!
ME! ME! Look at me! I'm so important!
ME! ME! Look at me! I'm so important!
Obviously, I don't use whatever that is.
Reparations was a BIG turnoff for me with Keyes....
OMG..........what the bloody hell is a default button?
It was the shot in the foot heard 'round the nation.
You're one of a kind, Howlin.
Thank God for small favors...
You are breaking my heart. I thought we were having an exchange of mirth and fun, with perhaps (but not necessarily) a hook to the history of the use of "Donner Party" as an FR insult.
But you know I can't read all of the Cal. governor threads, the posts are so numerous thatthey occupied many hours, even as they were being posted.
For penance I will do a few beers and a shot of rye.
It's a big turnoff with anybody except pandering politicians.
You wish I was one of a kind.
We're all on to you and your type. And we're not going to let you take us where you took Keyes.
OK....I'll have to think about a good way to describe tabs with Firefox....
I must go...nite all!
LOL! Excellent!
Yeah, right...you have tons of influence. Uhuh...
CIRCUIT CITY?
Oh Ernest, I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooo lost! "open new tab windows"? "dropdown menu"?
