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.

Pelosi can't be serious about bringing the troops out of Iraq!!! When did the Dems question Clinton when he sent troops to Bosnia??? And we still have troops there.

Pelosi and the Dems are either clueless or just partisan hacks.

Hearing Pelosi describe what must be done in Iraq is like hearing Paris Hilton describe Quantum Physics

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!

A big huge AMEN from me, too! Excellent speech. Mr. President.

I'm confident we're all dying to know one thing about the speech: WILL HE REACH OUT TO THE DEMOCRATS?!

He did!

'reached out and whupped them up side the head...

Pelosi is nothing but a communist, hiding as a socialist, hiding as a RAT.

I lost it (Tears flowing) when our President (GWB)introduced the parents of the Marine killed and what the young man told his parents when he enlisted.

"You protected me when I was young and now it's time for me to protect you"
