state of the union ‘08
6:00 PM Hey it’s Bush’s black friend!
6:05 PM Hey it’s the son a bush!
Give it up, one final time GWB in the hizzle!
6:07 PM Hey did he just shake Ted Turners hand? Since when is he in congress?
6:08 PM W with the hand jokes, give it up!
6:09 PM Isn’t it a bit early for an encore Mrs. Speaker?
6:10 PM President Dumbass is speaking, where’s my drink?
6:13 PM Hey it’s Charles Rangel he looks as full of it as ever
6:15 PM Funny man GWB!
Let the Bush tax cuts lapse, it’s not a tax increase.
Spend tax dollars wisely? You’re gonna wait until the end of your presidency to do that?
6:16 A surplus by 2012? Damn if only we could have done that sooner, oh wait…
I’d applaud your anti earmarks rhetoric if I thought you meant it.
6:17 PM tax free bonds? hell no mr. president I’m done with you borrowing my kids money.
6:18 PM Decisions about my medical treatment done in a doctors office and not in congress? I think those decisions will be made in office towers by CEO sir.
6:20 PM No Child Left Behind teaching students how to take test since 2002. (I think that’s the year)
6:22 PM No more public funding of private schools, especially religious ones, fix what we have.
6:23 PM Just say no, to expansion of free trade, fillibuster if you have to.
The president should care more about the finest workers in the USA not the world.
6:24 PM Hillary looks like she’s about to fall asleep
6:25 PM Yes let’s take the next step in conservation and allow California to establish its own clean air standards.
6:27 PM Wait in 2008 he’s gonna ratify Kyoto? Oh wait just kidding, only if China does.
6:28 PM He’s gonna allow scientists to perform their work? Does that mean stem cell research finally gets the okay?
6:30 PM So no embryonic stem cell research even if it can help people who are dying? Thanks Mr. Bush
The rule of law Mr. Bush? When you start upholding it we will approve your judges.
6:31 PM No more faith based initiative, it’s wrong. The church isn’t wrong but it is still the church.
6:34 PM Hey Boehner can you applaud a little less vigorously?
6:35 PM When he mentions liberty in place of freedom I get the chills.
6:36 PM Half an hour in we have our first discussion of 9/11, I am impressed.
6:37 PM Laura gives an almost standing ovation.
The word is terror sir, not terruh.
6:38 PM I think this is the only time each year that Condi isn’t giving someone the stink eye.
6:39 Give it up for Congressman Sleepy! Either that or he’s dead.
It’s not a surge sir, it’s an escalation.
6:41 PM Cheney really does resemble Darth Vader doesn’t he
6:42 He’s invented an Iraqi “surge” are you kidding me?’
6:43 PM The surge wasn’t meant to simply quell the violence Mr. President, without the Iraqi government taking action we will never leave.
6:44 PM Return on Success has such a soothing title doesn’t it?
6:45 Hey is that Betray Us er Patreus?
6:46 By fully funding the troops he means allowing them to go off and die for a lie, doesn’t he?
6:48 PM Is he still talking?
Let’s all clap for stating the obvious! woooo.
6:49 PM Whenever he says “homeland” I hear hitler in my mind speaking of the “fatherland”
6:50 PM No sir you will rest, comfortably, it is the men and women of our armed forces who will not.
6:52 PM Is this the we’re going to war with Iran portion of the speech?
6:53 PM I still fail to comprehend how our having nuclear weapons means no one else can? If we can have these weapons why can’t everyone?
6:54 PM He isn’t gonna throw his weight behind the FISA bill is he? Oh yes he is.
6:55 PM No sir if multinational companies broke the law they must be held accountable in a court of law.
6:56 PM We have consensus no one wants genocide
6:59 PM Bob Dole!!!
7:02 PM GWB Ladies and gentleman, let him hear it!
7:04 PM and we finish this where we started with Bush’s black friend
Good Night!
