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 suppose I can understand that, pretense of neutrality and all that.
Lol, I'd still be slightly peeved though, if that were me and I had a front row seat but had to sit as still as a statue throughout the entire speech.

Of course, it won't.

To: malia
hey- thats southern Well, I was told that here on FR once, but when I consulted my good friend from Texas, she told me it's not. :-) Whatever. I'm getting used to it. I cringe less and less each time, lol. It was great to hear John Kerry say "idee-er" for "idea." I figured it balanced out "nucular," :-)
To: isthisnickcool
My kids are praticing the Hillary clap. Much more sour faces than when I say "bed time".
