state of the union
Is there any real point to watching this? The run up to it sounds a lot like... well pretty much the same crap Bush always spits out. Here's a guess. Bush will brief talk about education and once again not talk about his lack of funding it. Bush will talk briefly about energy concerns and rattle off a list of alternative fuels, but not talk about how he doesn't fund them and instead gives money to oil companies that are making record profits. Bush will spend a long time on war talk. Although most Americans have long grown tired of the Iraqi war. He'll spend a good long time on terrorism. But not talk about his 9/11 grades, the real state of the military or the current cost of his war. Then he'll prattle on about the economy. It will be robust. Jobs will have been created. We will need tax cuts for the rich. We will need to cut back on social plans that don't work. None of these social plans will be faith based crap. Somehow something will be the democrats fault. Somehow not buying into all his crap will mean we are negative or being political or not wanting freedom. Oh and spying on Americans will be ok even without a warrant, because he will personally see to it only terrors are spied on. Besically the speach will be one long TRUST ME ON THIS ONE GUYS talk. The thing is a majority of Americans have long stopped trusting him, so whats the point.

1. none at all
I usually say " Know your enemy" but it will be like listen to air, get your blood pressure up. I personally would rather see it through to spectrum of an anti Bush site.
