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 bet it takes Limbaugh two shows to cover everything GW did, it was a phenomenal speech.

The Bush-hating "conservatives" are out in full force tonight trolling threads.

I believe some of the Fox gals are well over 6 foot, including Bridget Quinn and Laurie Due.

Not Rita Cosby. I've seen her on the street and she's TINY. I'm not even 5"1', and I looked her right in the eye.

The state of the union address has turned into a show or production. According to the US Constitution all the POTUS has to do is submit a letter and that's it.

I can tell you firsthand that Laurie is that tall (I met her when I worked at CNN, back when she was still there...)...

"I swear to Almighty God, I will work my butt off for Condi in 2008 just to keep this man's dream alive. In the future, he will rank with Reagan. Be Seeing You, Chris"

Chris, count me in, too! By far, this was the best SOTU speech I have ever seen. W was on directly on target - even the 'sane' Dems who disagree with him can see that this President truly believes in what he says and speaks from the heart. And, the Iraqi lady hugging the mother of the fallen Marine told the entire story for the evening.

The pieces of the Bush Doctrine are falling into place, and freedom loving people are realizing it.

This President has vision, and I will work my butt off too for Condi in '08 in order to continue the work that is yet to be done.

DNA evidence................****COUGH**** BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU ****COUGH****

Uh, where do you get that from. All he said was we need to make sure people on trial in capital cases receive a fair trial.


And when someone comes up with the idea that we should take a DNA sample at birth "just in case" it needs to be compared in the future what will you think then?

I agree that in court cases where they have DNA from the case in hand and a defendant w/ the same DNC.....oops DNA that's fine he's guilty, lock him/her up or execute him/her.

But what if they have the DNA and not the person?

Well then, we'll just look in your database of DNA, taken from people at birth, and find them.......... See my point....

Yeah, I'm buying off on that.

I wonder how they'll spin killing the unborn, and selling out the United States at every opportunity to Christians.

"His complaint is that President Bush never mentioned Bin Laden."

Did anyone NOT know what he was talking about when he was addressing those who would destroy freedom.
