State of the Union 2008 LIVE THREAD

[Brilliant]

She probably pre-arranged for that post-it to be given to her when the camera was trained on her, and now she’s going thru her theatrics to make it look like she’s got heavy burdens to carry.

It’s probably a grocery list.

I agree. In spite of any disagreements I have with George W Bush-and I have a couple of profound ones—he is a good man, and in a different league from anything we’ll have next year, from the Left or the Right. No matter what, I’ll always respect the man I saw standing in the rubble of the World Trade Center after 9/11.

[CitizenM]

All this campaign talk about the first woman running for president, the first black, the first Morman. Yet, Bush has hardly even been given credit for his cabinet and other appointments that have crossed all previous barriers of race, gender, religion more than any other president ever has.

After all, anyone can run for office, but it is more of an honor and validation of one's capabilities to be selected as a presidential appointment. Bush has never been afraid to select the best for the job regardless of their gender, race or religion.

I like the perfume bottle Nancy has on the desk in front of her. Looks stylish!

Isn’t that a flask that Teddy handed her ??

[Darth Republican]

Kennedy seems to be reading the program too.

I don't know who you are posting to but I didn't say anything like you've quoted.

[HighWheeler]

Hell of a great job on the screen captures there, Doughty.

[NordP]

Great minds...see #757 ;-)

[Sammie42]

I agree with you, I didn’t hear him say amnesty, not once!

[I_like_good_things_too]

I’ve noticed that too.

[lonestar]

If he endorses anyone, that person must be suspect on this issue.

That's assuming he's a one-issue person,

[whatisthetruth]

Lying Dem-RATS! Pls sit down!

[RDTF]

what was the big clapping for?

[tflabo]

It’s uncomfortable for her to look up all the time..thus the reading..

[DoughtyOne]

[luvie]

The Surge is working...amazing!!

[GOPyouth]

More than 1/2 of the liberals would not stand up to salute the troops. I noticed the cameras cut away from that and only showed the Republicans.

[A. Morgan]

[mtbopfuyn]

I just got home and turned it on. Yes, she’s definitely biting her lip and is on the verge of tears.
