Catch you around.

[Fiddlstix]

I'm sure that preperations are already in the works for this.

LOL! Nice Pic!

[NorCalRepub]

hey you guys......be magnanimous tonight......Juan isn't as bad as alot of the others....plus FOX has to get someone one there to keep their fair and balanced mantra....he is actually a very smart man though I never agree with his politics

[John Lenin]

That cartoon was made especially for Peggy. Noonan must be going through withdrawals tonight, that was another great speech that will go down in history.

[F14 Pilot]

Mullahs days are numbered, no need to use JDAMs and make trouble for the Iranian people.

[jennyjenny]

Why, why, why is Ron Reagan on? He's so sickening.

[AVNevis]

Good. It's time they had a new poll.

Jim, perhaps you should have a 2008 Republican Nominee poll. It would be interesting to see who is the early favorite among the Conservative base.

[A Balrog of Morgoth]

Wouldn't it be nice to see the details of the Bush temporary guest worker program before folks lash out?...


We just don't have much patience for members of the Church of GoPatGo tonight. And nothing Bush does will ever satisfy that guy anyways.

[F14 Pilot]

That is very important but I expected him to say more about Iran

[Claytay]

MSNBC poll says

After the president's State of the Union address, are you more or less optimistic about... the war in Iraq? * 8591 responses more optimistic 30% less optimistic 70% The war on terror? * 8571 responses more optimistic 29% less optimistic 71% Social security? * 8614 responses more optimistic 27% less optimistic 73% The economy? * 8565 responses more optimistic 28% less optimistic 72% The next four years? * 8609 responses more optimistic 28% less optimistic 72%

Without a willing MSM the rats would be even deader than they are.

[lawdog]

Yes, I know and not agreeing with him doesn't make someone an "unconservative" either. Still the point is tonight I give the man a 99 out of 100.

[Fledermaus]

Iran is the best choice simply because the people there already want to overthrow their government themselves.

Something like Israel bombing their nuke facilities could crack the mullahs and they'll be taken out by their own people; the same young people they used to get power in the late 1970's.

They'll have elections so fast it will make the Dems commit suicide. And that will make Syrians sick of Ba'athist rule all the more anxious to get rid of them. They too like to own businesses and raise families.

"DO NOT BE FOOLED BY HIM!"

Amen, Howlin. PissyChrissy flies with the wind...I remember him bashing the Toon about the impeachment one night and then screaming at the Pubbies the next night.

Oh, Great...here's another brilliant mind...Ron Reagan. Blech.

[Timeout]

Krauthammer just made the same point.

Well, that makes my day. I can't think of any analyst I'd rather be aligned with. I'm taping Fox...will go back and find it.

The more I think about this speech, I'm just awestruck. It was nothing like the magnificence of his speech right after 9/11. This was practical and programmatic. It's the BOLDNESS of this speech that just jumps out at you.

Bravo to the speech writers. And thanks be to God for sending us such a man for such a time.

Oh, geez. Little Ronnie Reagan just said "the speech was well read". Whatta bunch of lemon suckers they are.

[Darkwolf377]

"A Dem with cajones?"

Sure! Barney Frank has cajones. They're just someone else's. :)

[NorCalRepub]

Joe is just trying to appear fair and balanced...on the wrong network for that though

[Grassontop]

Oh brother....Juan is bring up UBL. They are like broken records

I'm hoping before W's four years is up, that OSBL will be caught or killed and W gets the credit. That will shut up Juan!

[OldFriend]

McCaffrey praised the election in Iraq as well.

Guess he still has friend in the military and knows that it would be critical of them to denigrate the election.

[longtermmemmory]

ron reagan jr. giving VERBATIM DNC talking points.

Tax over 90k, increase retirement ages, blah blah blah.
