Re: It's only been a few minutes
I say this after every State of the Union.
I go in knowing that most of what he is going to say is going to annoy me or even piss me off.
But I don't feel like you can complain about what he says if you refuse to listen to it.

I am a Poli Sci nerd so I love the state of the union - no matter the president. It's a choreographed, political masterpiece!

Re: It's only been a few minutes
Oh I watch it, but I hate how hypocritical it is. I also find it nauseating that people feel the need to give a standing ovation after every point he makes. It is so contrived.

I read it after the fact, I just can't stand all the clapping. It's like 4x as long b/c the clap after every statement. Drives me insane.

Here's the official link to the transcript:

It even tells you when to applaud, so I'm going to clap and stand up when it says (applause), so I get the full effect....

Re: It's only been a few minutes
great moments in stupidity.
I just hope the dems can get the stimulus package passed quickly. Unemployment benefit extensions and senior tax rebates are very near and dear to my heart right now.

I don't think he's admitting we were in a recession, but he *is* going to take credit for getting us out of one.... even though we weren't in one.... but his leadership ability got us out of the recession we weren't in yet....

Re: It's only been a few minutes
The previous link I posted was for a 2005 State of the Union address.
Here's the link for this year's address:

wow with that kind of crack research you could be on his staff.

Honestly, after reading most of both of them, it's hard to see much difference. The only thing that tipped me off was when he mentioned "3.5 years since September 11, 2001".... I was thinking, "OK, he probably doesn't know what year this is, but whoever wrote his script wouldn't be that far off..."
