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.
He dropped cluster bombs on civilians, bombed the water supply, bombed the Danube so no supplies could be sent to any countries along the river.
But that was a good war, wasn't it?
Both agreed that tonight he certainly did!
I'm still waiting for the exit strategy to get us out of Germany, South Korea, Japan, Bosnia, Kosovo, etc.
We could solve our energy problems if we could only harness Juan's mouth!!! He'll never shut up!!!:-)
Only "A-list" material here, baby, only "A-list" material here on FR
Well, it was...
his and a million more Americans
Yes, there were a lot of sour-pusses on the Rat side wasn't there?
I can't believe how negative most were on his social security comments. Jeez, democrats like Moynahan have made the same comments in years past. I guess they just want to try make political hay out of it.
They will fail. Social In-security is no longer the third rail.
I don't think he can say more. The less the DUmmies know the better.
I hope your right.
As far as I recall, that would have been Christmas ... 1996!
ROFLMAO!! AND EWWWWWWWWWW
Actually Cody looks a lot like Barack Obama.
Thank you George W. Bush! You make me Proud to be an American!!!!!
I'm sure they're deeply saddened...
Deeply saddened, soddened, disturbed, and depressed (then again, what's new?)
Note to self -- buy stock in the pharmaceuticals tomorrow.
I think you may be wrong about Matthews. MAY, I said.
He appeared to be profoundly impacted by Sunday's election in Iraq. You could almost see the conflict in his heart....he was struggling against admitting to himself that he'd been wrong. Maybe it had something to do with his visit a few days before to Camp Pendleton and then the elections following right on that.
But I've detected a change. He's challenging the Dems more on their "exit strategy" strategy. He doesn't seem to be buying into it.
Anyway, I just have this little feeling that Chris is struggling to maintain his anti-war stand.
There is NOTHING I find MORE offensive than the son of a former president calling the current Mr. Bush.
One would think that Ron would have a little more respect fo the office. Come on, Ron. Call him President Bush. Show a little bit of class.
Wasn't this guy screaming for stem-cell research on top of Reagan's coffin during the election; that his side lost.
For anyone curious, I clocked the speech in at 53 minutes and 18 seconds long.
