STATE OF THE UNION -- 2005 [Live Thread]

2/2/05

[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.

It's Nancy "I'm ready for my close-up Mr. DeMille" Pelosi!

[Mo1]

Can Nancy blink .. or are her eyes always bugged out like that?

[Terriergal]

I bet ya we airstike or have boots on the ground within 4 years, IF israel doesnt do it first.

I think Israel had the right idea when they made their view of Iraq's nuclear plant clear.

[silent_jonny]

Brit came off as kinda "underwhelmed"

LOL--that's Brit.

[Howlin]

I noted you too declined to dispute that the Iraqis all but stood by while we fought.

You expect me to try to refute the most ignorant statement posted on FR tonight?

Haven't you heard that old saying -- about not stopping somebody when they're showing your true stripes?

Well, you did tonight.

Oh, and remember howling, I don't run in packs, cliques, or march in cadence with the party groupies, like some here do. Not my style.

Sure you do; you and the liars on the immigration threads always are together.

You've certainly proved your value to the forum tonight.

You ARE the ugly face of conservatism.

[Angry Enough]

Is Pelosi on yet? I turned the TV off b/c seeing her scares me. I keep waiting for either her eyeballs to pop out or her teeth to slide out.

[TomGuy]

CAUTION ALERT!
Move away from your screen!



[If she blinks, you could be harmed!]

[Ladysmith]

LOL!!!

[milagro]

Caught that too--muffed his big line (tee hee!)

[STARWISE]

Nancy, your eyes will dry out if you don't blink.

[NonValueAdded]

Forgive but never forget. He would earn redemption in my eyes if he came clean and said he made a mistake. Don't get me wrong ... I like him, but he is not presidential material.

[DaveMSmith]

Reid didn't say a thing.

[steveegg]

As opposed to the current Ponzi scheme, where all the money is on 0, with no 0 on the wheel.

[rlmorel]

Yeah, I am sure our wounded servicemen love it when Plasticface Pelosi comes to visit them!

[tomkat]

Agreeing with your interpretation.

...wound my heart with a monotonous languor...

[onyx]

Thanks so much for telling me.
I love it!

Bloody Mary's sound GOOD.

Nice FReeping with you tonight.

[nutmeg]

I LOVE that democRAT graphic!

[AVNevis]

She said it- Were an occupying force!

[Christian4Bush]

Wow! What a speech. What a President. We have a lot to be thankful for. Thank you Lord for our leaders and our troops and their families. Please Lord, bless them and protect them and put a stumbling block in the path of our enemies, foreign and domestic.

AMEN and AMEN bump and bump!

To add to that prayer, may our enemies, foreign and domestic, run in fear, though no one is chasing them (Leviticus 26:17, paraphrased)!
