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.

We'll just refer to the democrats as the Whig party from now on.

There are some good democrats taking note of this too. Their refusal to stand might be symbolic to them continuing to sit on the sideline.

See #1698

There was an error in the start time according to the WH web site, and I was fed the 2004 stream before the 2005 stream started.

I apologize for my mistake.

"This is a homerun speech."

It is! And isn't he supposed to be a man who can't put two words together without tripping over what he's saying? Boy, someone sure mis-underestimated this great president of ours.

Go W!

Who did he wink at when he made that comment about not legislating from the bench? One of the Justices?

Yeah I agree... glad he's mentioning the gangs. We have issues with MS-13 here in Hempstead.
