Okay, so I was wrong on the victory over terrorism thing...
But I'm pretty surprised at the reaction to the Beeg speech. A lot of journalists are calling it for the bullshit it was, and noting it was delivered as a stump speech in a tuxedo...
And like I said, i didn't watch. But i heard that the military props that Bush brought in looked pretty pissed throughout the speech. And while Pelosi and Daschle apparently sucked wind in the rebuttal, Clark and Kerry seem to have hammered Bush pretty good.
So, it's on. Time to start laying out the case against ThugCo in earnest.

I always watch the state of the union, as much as I hate the pig fucker, it’s good to see a little insight into the mind of The Enemy. This time I only got to watch half of it, because I had to pick my wife up from work, so I had to listen to the rest of it in my car.
During the part I watched, the 3 military people they cut to during applause looked pretty pissed to me, the black soldier was actually rolling his eyes, and looked like he might have been sighing. They couldn’t have found 3 soldiers to use as props who are not pissed? That’s saying a lot, if military brainwashing is starting to wear thin. Good thing he didn’t have any veterans there….
My favorite part was when Caligula said “the patriot act is set to expire…” and the democrats interrupted him in mid sentence with applause. It was great. It was also a bit sad though, the most powerful room full of people in the world (well, discounting a few corporate board rooms) and they have to resort to childish tactics because they are afraid to actually speak their minds on a daily basis. Still damn funny.
While we are taking responsibilities for false prophecy, I suppose I should point out that my “War Against Mars” prediction didn’t come true either.

Hiccups? ;-)
Yeah, Chimpo was pretty annoying...smirked all the way thru his screed...it was a real chest beater. The military folk did indeed look annoyed and bored. Sen. Kennedy just sat and shook his head. I was disappointed in the Dem response- could have been a hell of a lot better...shit, Bush gives them plenty of easy openings, why don't they jump at the chance? The world is waiting!
