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.

The Dems are doomed if this trend among young workers grows...and I am sure it will.

Notice how Pres.Bush has asked the Dems to give him some good ideas........reaching out his hand.......and notice how they cut off his fingers.

Our children are not stupid and they vote too.

They keep droning on about exit plans, bring the troops home, etc.

Remember "Bush needs to go to the UN about Iraq?" Remember that? And remember when he went and dropped a bomb on them all?

When will they ever learn?
