1. There is something wrong with my left speaker

I don't hear anything on that side. Can anyone help?

[LincolnMcGrath]

6. Wiggle the knob

[jmags]

21. How many countries actually contributed troops?

If I'm not mistaken that ridiculous roll call was yet another lie, more particularly his statement of "17 other countries who have committed troops to Iraq."

Besides that, I thought it was funny how he phrased it along the lines of "those who want to internationalize should explain this to...

Someone should explain to him these countries are the most vocal in the desire to internationalize the Iraqi process.

[Fenris]

2. HE SAID THE "G" WORD!!!!!!!!

[Paragon]

3. God loves freedom

Oh, unless you're gay and you want to marry, you want your privacy, you live in Iraq, etc etc etc

[UrbScotty]

[Endangered Specie]

8. God referenence, for own gain =1

[gauguin57]

15. go teddy ... it's ya birthday ...

[nini]

12. He's trying to act tough by looking towards the Dem's on the terror issues

[knight_of_the_star]

13. He's going to make a new propaganda network in the ME

Broadcasting in "Persin" God, what a chimp.

[Endangered Specie]

[Stephanie]

17. No desire to dominate, no ambition to empire

What a lying POS. Ask CHENEY about empire

[Paragon]

18. "the dignity and riots of every human being"

Could've sworn he said that instead of "rights"

[Solly Mack]

19. God loves freedom..but only our god and our definition of freedom

No that motherfucker did not just say America has no desire to dominate...they lying sag of shit. That's all he is about...

[librechik]

Condi looks terrified

[Jackhammer Jesus]

20. Okay, anybody else notice this...?

Before the war, Bush said "weapons of mass destruction."

During the war and early after the war, he said "weapons of mass murder."

Now it's mysteriously changed to "weapons of mass destruction related programs."

Come on, Dubya. Pick one and stick with it. Personally, I think he ought to just say nucular.

[librechik]

29. it gets more and more passive and obfuscated

very funny. You can tell Karen's back! Yee :puke:

[Maddy McCall]

56. posted in wrong place

[rainy]

27. Did all of those countries really contribute troops to Iraq

like bush just said?

[NoPasaran]

70. It's concievable

Mnay of these countries have small numbers of specialist troops involved
They've also been suffering some casualties. I remember Spanish, Bulgarian and Urkraians having been killed.

[guitar man]

28. Did he say "free labor unions in the Middle East?"

What a fucking hypocrite. His cabal seeks to destroy American labor and he "supports" unions there. Now I am gonna puke!

[NoPasaran]

31. Okay

So we're winning in Iraq and isn't the economy great?

What color is the sky in your world, Bush*?

[BootinUp]

32. Talking about Jobless Recovery now ----- more Lies!

[yankeedem]

33. Exports growing

Yea, because you cratered the dollar, you POS.

[IkeWarnedUs]

Economy is strong - half the chamber stood - half sat in silence.

I wish they would show the Dem side of the chamber more.

[guitar man]

52. PBS

[cthrumatrix]

36. And now we are "Bankrupt"....lol

[spindoctor]

37. I guess I'll become a bio-technician then

[Stephanie]

38. Our Dems are sitting on their hands for the lies, and we should

thank them for it.

[kayell]

39. Oh, cool, some really cynical and obvious economic lies

[dpibel]

40. They screwed up the drug cocktail

Too heavy on the euphorics.

The silly little bastid can hardly keep from laughing.

Or maybe he's just got to the point where even he's saying, "My gawd! I can't believe they're buying this bullshit."

[Khephra]

41. He's pushing biotech?????????????

This is the most anti-biotech administration in history!

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

55. "New jobs in healthcare and biotech in our new economy"

Translation: emptying bedpans in hospitals, handling hazardous waste in biotech firms, minumum wage, no benefits.

[Endangered Specie]

42. higher standards my ass

[rainy]

43. Did all of those countries really contribute troops to Iraq

bush just names off many? Also did you notice the speech began at exactally 9:11?

[ConcernedCanuk]

73. Yes I did, and he spent 25 minutes on Iraq and terrarism

.
.

[Paragon]

44. Bill Hicks called people like Bush "suckers of Satan's cock"

Anyone else hear "a giant sucking sound" right now?

[laruemtt]

45. * talking about mastering

anything in education is just too goddam funny if it weren't so tragic. he can't even speak right.

[knight_of_the_star]

46. He's taking credit for No Child Left Behind

What an idiot. He is saying that his education "reform" is working.

[lancdem]

66. In the county where I live

the school superintendents hate that law and see it as an unfunded mandate.

[dpibel]

47. "Testing every child on the fundlementals" nt

[Endangered Specie]

48. 2 of 3 kids quiet on No Child left behind

[gauguin57]

54. what happened to YOU, chimp ...

I guess you were "left behind." Cuz you sure ain't SPEAKIN' at the third-grade level.

[JohnOneillsMemory]

My relative who was a prosecutor at Nuremburg is spinning in his grave.

[yankeedem]

49. No child left behind

No applause from the good guys.
Chiding detractors from his (unfunded) mandate.

[tkmorris]

50. Education?

I always have a moment of delicious irony whenever this guy talks about the importance of a good education. It's like watching Keith Richards expound upon the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.

[Stephanie]

51. How about asking YOU to read and do math at an ADULT level???

Would that be asking too much, MF?

[Paragon]

53. Hey fucker, YOU can't read at a third grade level

[gauguin57]

64. what's with the joint chiefs?

They don't stand for proposal to support community college?

[Endangered Specie]

57. "measures" cmon W, spit it out

[thebigidea]

58. he is a horrible monster

the shots of Cheney are pretty creepy.

Condidrone doesn't look too happy.

[ronnykmarshall]

59. My step dad sums it up

"I'll watch about a few minutes of the sorry son of a bitch and that's all I can take!"

[Khephra]

I've made it so far, I'm going to wait it out

This whole thing is a joke. You can tell by his look.

[knight_of_the_star]

60. He's lying again

No Child Left Behind is shooting schools in the foot by underfunding massively.

And he is defending his policy STILL. I thought that the State of the Union only was to address this last year, not defend old policy.

[Endangered Specie]

61. More pell grants... that would actually be nice (lets see it happen 1st)

[KTM]

62. "I propose a new eduction initiative

so that I can not fund TWO of them."

[LEW]

63. I've already lost count of all the lies

Can't wait for the dems to rip him apart on the lies. Hopefully they will!!!!

[rusty charly]

71. major

smirking now

[tkmorris]

65. I propose....

all manner of great things for our schools. But I won't fund them. Gah!!

[freespeechhere]

67. What's with the community college thing?

The Gropenfuror was going on about that, too.

[hlthe2b]

74. They are booing!!!!!!!! on tax cuts.....

thanks Dems....

[...Alltogethernow]

92. I don't think so

... I heard the loudest applause, this is the one area I agree with him. I'm taxed to death now.

[freespeechhere]

93. Dependence on Foreign OIL???????

He skimmed over that one really quickly.

[IkeWarnedUs]

68. Funding for Pell grants and community colleges

Dems start the applause and Repubs realize they should probably stand too - don't want to, but figured they should.

[Endangered Specie]

69. Applause for the "Taxes to expire soon"!!!!

[gauguin57]

80. cheney looks like a robot

The Stepford Vice President.

[Maddy McCall]

72. NCLB is utter bullshit

George, talk about how Texas cooked the books to make it appear that the program works. And how actually, the number of dropouts increased and how you had children who couldn't cut the muster drop out so the stats looked better for you.

I hate you, you pompous fool!~

[Maddy McCall]

82. Now Tort Reform.

:(

[freespeechhere]

75. Unless you act...he has the inflection wrong...hear that?

[knight_of_the_star]

76. He wants yet ANOTHER tax cut!!!!!!!

And he's already racked up a record setting deficit, and now he wants the cuts to STAY!!!

[LWolf]

77. NCLB, tests, accountability and education.

I have just one response to Mr. Bush.

:nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:
:nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:

[Maddy McCall]

89. Yes, me too

[Endangered Specie]

Boy was that a low level plug...(if ya dont do it my, american taxes incr"

[Endangered Specie]

86. DID I HEAR BOOS??? for the "If you dont act on my tax plan..."

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

78. He got Booed 5 times!

[KTM]

90. No he didnt

That was the Reichwing booing the hypothetical outcomes that would occur is we DONT make his tax cuts permanent.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

79. "Job training is important and so is job creation"

"For the sake of job growth, the tax cuts you passed should be permanent."

[rusty charly]

88. the blackout

you slept through

[KTM]

81. Cheney is smirking like a champ at the tax cut schtick

Testing the "Unless you act" stump speech.. Cheney's got a big turd-eating grin. Somewhere Rove is searching for more Kleenex.

[gauguin57]

91. booooooooooooo

leave my social security ALONE, you maniac!

[laruemtt]

83. "tax cuts should be permanent"

"frivolous lawsuits" i'm reaching critical mass. can't take anymore..... am crying here

[Stephanie]

84. How can a tax cut be permanent anyway?

Couldn't Congress reverse them at any time? I know the current cuts have sunset provisions, but isn't "permanent" BS?

[maddezmom]

85. looks like if the dems don't help pass bushes tax plan

he'll be giving everyone a tax hike

[yankeedem]

87. Here he goes with the tort reform

Here comes ANWR.

[LWolf]

94. Most of those people standing

and applauding, on both sides, don't look cheerful.

Other than those trying to raise the decibals with shouts, I'm not noticing much in the way of enthusiasm. Repubs seem determined to get him the applause he needs, but there aren't many happy looking people out there.

Maybe it's not about happiness anymore. I guess these days we have the right to pursue fear.

I'm watching the webcast from Dennis' site; it shows the audience watching from a town meeting in NH. They are not standing or applauding; and not smiling, unless you count sarcasm.

[knight_of_the_star]

95. He's not one to talk about being a good steward of tax payer's dollars

It sounds like he's giving a campaign stump speech, not a State of the Union.

[Endangered Specie]

96. yeah right, cut defecit, only to be replenished by mars/moon spending?
