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 think that hug may help Mrs. Norwood, as she mourns, and especially as she honors her son's memory. Such heartfelt emotion must help wounds heal. May God bless them both.

In the future, he will rank with Reagan.
This is difficult to say, as one who worships Reagan....but W may have just surpassed him with his vision.

That speech was as meaty as grandaddy's crock pot venison on a cold winter's night.

We get it, ok. We all know you would have marched over to Saddam and killed him if you were an Iraqi. You have that big of a penis. We get it. They are cowards and wimps undeserving of honor, and you are the end all be all of judges when it comes to honorable behavior and attitude. Can you just go away now?

Brian Williams has proven he is NOT ready for prime time.
What a loser, and Russert is negative too.

Iraqis all but stood on the side lines Ya know, after many decades of living under torment it'd be hard to have the wherewithal to form a coherent resistance. Eventually they may grow into this role, let's hope and press on.

Agreed ... the Dems could have twenty "rebuttal" speeches and wouldn't hold a candle to it.

I saw Biden applauding the President during his speech with a look on his face that said, "now why can't we do that". It was priceless. And they can't do what Bush did because you have to "believe" not pretend. All the difference in the world.
