I know, you'd think a former Andover cheerleader would have better diction than that.

That's Sodom and Gomorrah Hussein. That's nukyuler. Real Texans don't admit they went to Yale.

Funny how fiscal responsibility only turned into a Good Thing when Democrats got hold of Congress. Funny how this cretin thinks he can win World War III. Funny how he thinks borrowing another $150 billion and giving it away will rescue US economy after he

His first State of the Union was in 2002 (be kind of stupid to give a SotU speech seconds after you're sworn in, wouldn't it? Not that stupid has ever stopped him or anything...) So when you start off the speech being blatan

His speech was crap from the beginning. The very first sentence.
Seven years have passed since I first stood before you at this rostrum.

It was a Greatest Hits compilation of previous SotU speeches. A clip show, if you will, to pad out the second season.

Funny how they only turned into a Bad Thing when the Democrats got control of Congress.

I have the same reaction. Either I am revolted by his butt-lazy diction ("ma aministration?" WTF, is it too hard to say that little "d" in there?), offended by his talking-to-idiots delivery, or appalled by his pathetically transparent lies. &n

This part was also funny: "We will not rest until this enemy has been defeated."

Except this dog has 75 word vocabulary, can count to at least 4, and knows Fred Thompson will not become next President of US.

This part was funny:
"Others have said they would personally be happy to pay higher taxes. I welcome their enthusiasm, and I am pleased to report that the IRS accepts both checks and money orders."

Blah. Blah. We mostly yell at each other. Laughter. Blah. Blah. Blah. Blah. Economy going great, but slowing down and we'd better fix it RIGHT NOW. Blah. Blah. Applause. Blah. Blah. Make my tax cuts permanent. Blah. Blah. Laughter. Blah. Blah. Applause. Ea

Wow, I haven't heard "9/11" or "al Queda" once yet - not much fodder for our drinking game.

Dude, wtf? I dislike President Bush as much as the next guy but come on, at least let him speak and listen to what he has to say before making up your mind on his speech tonight.

I can't. His lying voice makes me physically ill. As did Reaga
