I thought he was over his head at “rostrum”
Bush gets Butch about the stimulus package.

So many shitty ideas, so little power. I am not going to miss his BS next year.
oh the smirk.
OOOOOHHHHH……
Slammed the door on liberal earmarks!!!
How will you keep the loyalty of unions????
welcome, bitch. How will you keep the big corporations at your beck and call? You act like the earmarks are new to the Democratic Congress…
no clap for NCLB from Ted Kennedy…
Oh good more imports from Columbia. It will protect us from drug cartels and Hugo Chavez. I really would love to have a President that gets both sides to stand up and clap.
I gotta admit, he’s losing me…
Your judges get no hearings until you are gone. We are short of judges because the R’s refused to hold hearings on BC’s nominees.
10 bucks says Pelosi’s squirming on a Lucky Lady vibrator…..
I think Pelosi is spell-checking the speech.
Wow, he just mentioned Osama in public.
What, is she typing it in with her mudflaps?
A free Iraq will show millions across the Middle East that a future of liberty is possible.
Oh, yeah, the rest of the Middle East is flocking to live in this bastion of hope.
Classy, Jablome. Your wife must be proud.
Hey there X, nice to see you back.
D’oh! I missed it. So we’ve won in Iraq right?
Hey I was just thinking about X today. It’s like “plate of shrimp” all up in here.
Here comes the fear-mongering…
Is it wrong to demand a warrant for wiretapping?
Shelala appears to be from Munchkinland.
Geez, Bush doesn’t do history very well.
This is it. The end of his last State of the Union.
D’oh I thought it was over 5 minutes ago because I saw people clapping as I flipped over to “karate Kid”
Translation of SOTU for you democommies:
“Everything’s great, economy’s good, the surge is working and we’re bombing Iran tomorrow..YEEHAH!… huh, do you have anything to add, co-president Hero Darth Cheney.”
Think Progress
Bush: ‘Life’s pretty comfortable inside the bubble.’
During a recent interview with Fox News’s Brett Baier, President Bush admitted that he lives inside a “bubble,” but that “life’s pretty comfortable”:
BAIER: Is being president confining?
BUSH: Yeah I guess so, I knew what I was getting in to and so I’m not frustrated in that sense. I can remember telling people that “well, when I decided to run that if I want, I’d never be able to go buy Berkely Power Worms again on my own.” And by that I meant that you know there’s just a certain freedom of movement that you don’t have and so I tell people, “yeah, there’s a bubble but life’s pretty comfortable inside the bubble.”
Thanks for the recap Publis.
Do you think those senators getting autographs are going to sell the things on ebay?
Glad to be back. I had a very busy year – didn’t leave a lot of time left over for blogging or local politics. It’s really a shame. But in late December, I put my toes back in at Swing State Project, then briefly flirted with MyDD before realizing the commenters there were really peeing in the pool. A little DKos here and there… and maybe now I’m ready to think about Delaware again? I kinda got pissed off when every state moved their primary to the same date as us. For a little while there, we would have been 5th primary in the nation and only shared it with Missouri. Anyway, long live Delaware and its liberals.
People who don’t regret voting for Bush:
Dave Burris
Mike Castle
David Andersen
Hube
I’m sure there are a few more. It just boggles the mind.
Mitt Loves Bush. What a F’ing loser.
I’m watching the PBS coverage. Some woman said, “You make me proud to be an American” It’s amazing that she looked so good after being in a coma for 7 years.
All these Bush lovers like Mitt and Dave Burris in the GOP are driving the party off a cliff.
67% “wrong track”
Mitt wants to be Bush III
I think they are only showing Mitt from the chest up because he is nude from the waist down and sporting a huge boner.
Oh Dem response on deck. NBC.
X , starting the blog back up?
Mmmmm… it’s so late in the game… maybe I should reboot it with a new title and a broader topic.
Russert talking up Sebelius.
Gov. Sebelius of Kansas. VP short list. (probably not Clinton’s)
Obama/Sebelius, hmmm.
I might retool the blog just to track polls… I am a total poll junkie.
How’s life geek?
I’m a futures market junkie.
busy. Letting up a little, though.
she is a little too stiff. She would need to work on that.
I’d take her over Aunt Bea any day, though.
Yep. I’m still feeling burned by Ferraro. I don;t know how’s I’d feel about Sebelius.
Esp. since the VP’s job is to take a pick-axe to the other side.
Obama/Sebelius could work.
other possibilities:
Obama/Clark (he’d be forgiven for endorsing Hillary – Obama doesn’t hold grudges)
Obama/Biden (Well, he has the experience)
Obama/Webb (would be seriously exciting, but I think we need Webb kicking ass in the Senate for a while longer)
Obama/Richardson (I don’t think he’d take the job tho)
Obama/Feingold (kind of a dream ticket, but I don’t think it adds much punch electorally)
There’s also Napolitano of AZ.
Can I veto Richardson?
No Obama/Edwards ?
I guess you only get one shot at second place.
Obama/Webb I like.
Obama/Steve Jobs
OMG look at Clinton. FREAKY!
Gotta admit, she’s a better speaker than Sebelius.
Joe Biden….Hmmm?
McCain on MSNBC
Edwards won’t take a VP slot. He’s done that already, and VP is a do-nothing job for anyone except Cheney. Edwards has a likely shot as Atty General
I think another part of his face just fell off.
Obama on NBC!
Ted Kennedy endorsed Obama and the press is trying to make it some kind of negative.
Obama has a good lineup – Kennedy, Kerry, McCaskill, Napolitano – each speaking to different types of people
They seem to forget that this is the DEMOCRATIC primary, and nobody cares what Republicans think.
McCain’s gonna need some serious Viagra if he’s gonna stay awake through November. He is not a healthy looking guy.
“the Office!”
Obama on MSNBC now.
Obama just plugged windpower.
I am totally watching the Office now. “You have a call from Eddie Murphy.”
I like Bush’s “trust but verify” approach to the American people as he gave a mini history lesson on trusting the people while calling for increased wiretapping authority. Orwell must be his speech writer.
A.C. just asked Mitt if he ever changed his opinion in a way that has hurt him politically?
Dwight’s second life is killing me.
g’night all.
later.
Keep in touch X.
Brian – Re Obama policies. Greg Craig, who is a foreign policy advisor to the Obama campaign is going to be speaking here Tuesday.
Adios
Dropping in quickly here to give my two cents… I’m about to keel over from exhaustion, so I can’t really read the previous comments, but WOW. Talk about a crap speech. Did McCain’s boys write this for him?
The Democratic response put me to sleep. Sebelius lacks any sort of charisma/charmI. Not unlike Kansas. I actually fell asleep briefly in the middle of her response. While I prefer her sentiments to the president’s, he’s at least entertaining to watch.
I may have lied earlier. Read the comment about VP tickets. Almost wept at the “Obama/Webb” ticket. Ditto for Obama/Biden, but something about him partnering up with Webb gives me goosebumps. What do you guys think of him running with Bayh?
Alright. In all seriousness, I’m losing coherent function in my fingers. Over and out.
Brian – Re Obama policies. Greg Craig, who is a foreign policy advisor to the Obama campaign is going to be speaking here Tuesday.
Thanks Jason. Where will he be?
Here’s what I wanted for this douche bag’s final SOTU address.
“My fellow American’s, despite our best efforts the state of the union is mediocre. Please believe we all had the best intentions. I acted in good faith and did what I thought was best at the time. In retrospect, I was a complete fucking screw-up. I apologize.
Thank you. Good night.”
25 seconds.
I still haven’t gotten my apology. Plus I torture myself by reading those god damn empty-headed retards from FSP, Hugh Hewitt, etc. After last night “speech” I am officially at my wits end.
To quote the Kim Jong Il puppet in Team America, “Why is everyone so fucking stupid. Why can’t people be intelligent, like me?”
I agree with Mat about the Kansan Governor. S-Span featured her giving her State of the State Speech earlier this week and it put me to sleep. Worst.Speaker.Ever.
