Shouldn’t the judges be allowed to applaud when they hear the word ‘gavel’?...

The one thing I was extremely excited that he mentioned was the transferring of GI Bill benefits to spouses.

My husband was commissoned by the Navy after 12 years as enlisted. So, his goes unused. We pay tuition out of pocket for me.

It was great for us to have this brought up.

Whether you like it or not, the Dems own congress. Perhaps, you should run for President and see how a straight conservative candidate does. Likely worse than Duncan Hunter.

You seem to miss the Nucular Power proposals. That is the backbone of his energy proposal. Course that doesn’t feed your BDS or feed your conservative superiority complex..

Let us drill off the coast of California and Florida!!!

We don't have to drill off the Florida coast -- the Cubans and Chinese will do it for us, and sell us "our" oil (at a hefty premium).

What, you say? We won't BUY from them, harumpf? No matter. Oil, like money, is fungible. It won't matter one whit whether or not WE buy it from them.

What WILL matter is that OUR oil will be sucked out from between our toes, and "liberated" by the two remaining doctrinaire communist dictatorships -- while WE play sanctimonious "green" BS games about it. Talk about cutting off one's nose to spite his own face!

As to California? I'm sure "those good people" in Mexico will be more than glad to drill it -- and sell it to us.

We are fools. A nation of fools.

I tried to stay awake through the whole peptalk, but thankfully, that didn't work out. So, maybe there was something even worse than what struck me as the high point of the entire farce -- when Exalted Leader proclaimed that he will trust American workers to compete with anyone, anywhere in the world.

You get that, Joe Sixpack? You are now charged with the task of "competing" with Chinese slave labor.

Get to it!

Land of the free... *groan*

I have the Director’s Cut on DVD and an older version on VHS.

Think before I post? Yes indeed I think and Bush had a very good bill that was changed by the Democrats in Congress. Bush signed the bill because he got what he could out of the Democrats and they held firm. The Teacher’s Union should have worked harder on the Democrats to get your way.

Good post:

Matthew 3:12 and Matthew 25:32.

It reminds me of another by Jesus:

Matthew 24:12-”And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”

So what is that supposed to be? A half-assed apology? Or are you just embarrassed that your cowardly insult was aimed at an elderly Army officer? If you had any character you would be ashamed, but the answer to that is already evident.

Thank you President Bush... I love you and will miss you.

Well, that makes one of you. I guess, whatever rocks your world. I used to feel like that but then I opened my eyes and saw him destroying America, and I will NEVER be able to explain to my children or grand children or great grand children or great great grand children what happened to America. How we stood by and watched it destroyed in the name of globalism. The America that many members of my family have died fighting on foreign soil to keep America free, and they darn sure didn't do it so Bush could sell us out to the highest bidder.

Sorry, Bush does NOT get a pass from me just because he says all the feel good kinda things that make you swell with pride and tingle all over.

That was an amazing proposal that makes perfect sense. The spouse or child is able to use the tuition benefit is a great idea.

Is there any question that he loves our troops and their families. Thank you for your sacrifices, we can never repay you.

Greetings back to ‘ya. I am a Republican Party activist and was when Bush was governor and was around him numerous times. What you see is what you get with him. He is what he is. I never doubted his honesty or devotion to his country. I framed his invitation to us for his first inaugeration as President. There won’t be any more of those.

Executive Order to ignore any earmarks that go through without a vote from Congress!!!!! HIP HIP HOORAY!!

When he announced that, you could almost see the wave of hatred from the rats - what a great end run!

I voted for President Bush twice and I respect him and like him personally. He’s done some good things for sure. He’s also gotten us into a serious mess on several issues. But this is his night, so I’ll accentuate the positive and thank him for the good things!
