Does this boring speech really warrant Level 5?

[RevCheesehead]

Honestly, it sounds like a series of sound-bytes, with no coherent message at all.

Or, maybe it's the beer.

[CatholicEdHead]

1. People are still going from the Alito mess

I am expecting Level 6 soon.

[zone]

2. I thought the dumbfuck quit drinking

maybe that was just another lie.

[RevCheesehead]

6. LOL

Nah, it's me and my Killian's. :beer:

[zone]

8. I knew what you meant

Sarcasm is my only response to this mess (I think it's the coke that keeps him on his game).

[RevCheesehead]

11. yeah, I figured you did.

And, again - welcome to DU :hi:

Are people being nice to you?

[FuzzySlippers]

3. I wish I could drink

without triggering a migraine.x( I'm watching this stone sober.

[RevCheesehead]

14. Tell ya what, Fuzzy -

I'll have another one, in honor of you. :toast:

[FuzzySlippers]

24. Fat lot of good that'll do ME!!!

:cry:

[yvr girl]

4. I know - he's just blathering

It's a laundry list. It doesn't seem to belong to a coherent whole.

I know that the SOTU doesn't offer as much dramatic potential as an inaugural address, but it could be so much better. (Content aside.)

[RevCheesehead]

5. Of course, it might sound better if it weren't constantly interrupted

with all this goddamned applause.

And doesn't everyone look pretty for TV? :puke:

[yvr girl]

7. At least he stops talking during the applause

We must be thankful for small mercies.

[RevCheesehead]

10. I admire your optimism.

I just keep wondering how on earth he got to where he is.

I guess money can buy anything.

[Omphaloskepsis]

9. WTF.. He thinks he can push an agenda.. WTF.

This is damage control..

[RevCheesehead]

16. Notice what's missing?

His Man-Date. :evilgrin:

[Omphaloskepsis]

25. Ohh.. My pants feel funny..

[hfojvt]

20. I thought it was bizarre

ABC news said "this has been a terrible year for Bush" and then listed Katrina, the Iraq war, energy prices.

Uh, hello guys. This has been a terrible year for AMERICA you fumbducks. Bush made over a million dollars this year, just like he does every year. He took a month's worth of vacation and flew around the country giving speeches to applauding audiences (as in Manhattan, Ks). He put two RW judges on the Supreme Court, several tax cuts for rich people were made permanent, and more were passed, etc.

He is gearing up for campaign season, and you know he loves that. He could give a rat's a$$ about how bad America has had it.

[RevCheesehead]

22. You know, this post deserves its own thread.

Seriously. I'm afraid your insightful comments will be lost on this tiny thread. :hi:

[FarLeftRage]

12. I don't really think so...

But it appears to be this way.

Hey, I can see all the ignoramuses :mad:

[madrchsod]

13. i`m so tired of clapping i can hardly type!

thank god there is a lounge

[tuvor]

15. People are posting like mad, because they're hearing exactly...

...what they knew they'd hear.

:wtf:

[RevCheesehead]

17. it baffles, doesn't it?

How many times can you type "asshole" and "fuckstick" before going insane? And what does that do to your blood pressure?

[LynzM]

18. Ugh, I dunno

I won't (can't?) watch him. It makes me absolutely crazy. It'll be bad enough reading the recaps. And I know that after listening to Gore's excellent speech a couple weeks ago, there's no way I could watch the chimp's trainwreck of a 'speech' :eyes:

:hi: Rev, how's life?

[RevCheesehead]

19. Hi, LynzM

:hi: Life is interesting, taking all sorts of detours lately. But overall, I'm OK. I have a home, a job, a computer, and two loving cats. What more could I possibly need?

[LynzM]

21. Hrm....

Interesting can be good and bad! :hug: I hope for you that it turns out to be a positive thing! Yay, cats!

[merh]

23. A whole hour into it and he mentions the disaster in NOLA & the

MS Gulf Coast.

Damn, for a minute there, I thought it was a figament of my imagination that my house was destroyed and I am living in a femansion. :freak:

He is going to build more schools, maybe I can live in the art classroom of one of them after 3:30.
There will be showers in the locker rooms. oh boy

x(

[RevolutionaryActs]

26. I'm thinking no.

But maybe lots of people played SOTU drinking games. So they're all shit-faced and want to post on DU. :shrug:

[Redstone]

27. It wouldn't have, if everyone had just done like I did and ignored it.

It doesn't mean a goddamn thing anyway. Remember a couple of years ago, we were going to send people to Mars?

The SOTU spectacle is beneath contempt, and utterly meaningless. If we ignore it long enough, it'll go away.

28. It's the Cindy Sheehan thing...
