9:24:24 LIBYA!!!! Did he just say "nuke-you-ler" or nuclear?

[FORD]

You forgot to mention that most of those standing ovations were only on the far right side of the aisle

God, I can't believe I sat through an hour and 15 minutes of lies and bullshit

[Dave's PA Rental]

9:39 (Daves PA rental has an uneasy feeling that they are about to show Ted Kennedy's head on the TV again...)

9:39:47 "No child left behind..." doesnt work. I am a public school teacher. I know. But that might be a topic for another thread...

FORD, was that your first State of the Union speech? Everyone knows that when a Republican is the president, all the Republicans stand and clap. And when a Democrat is the president, all the Democrats stand and clap...

(dude, I feel like picking on you tonight...)

[lucky wilbury]

that b's game was a good one. who would have thought that without joe they would smackdown the rangers again. and what a cheap shot on rolston at the end.

[rustoffa]

what the fuck was the steroids speel about?good grief,that was horrible.....maybe he's eluding to Dean's "roid-rage" like outbursts....probably a stretch.

[Cathedral]

Bush wants coaches to put a stop to steroid use so our kids have a better rolemodel..

I'm still trying to figure out how that whole thing fit into the speech.

Oh well, it was at least a good point to drag out of nowhere, lol.

Maybe it's because he knows first hand what decades of drug abuse can do to a body?

[Pink Spider]

I watched the first 20 minutes of lie after lie after lie after lie...then turned it off. Neo-con rhetoric is both pathetic AND boring. At least the usual "useful idiots" probably liked it.

No shit, but this bunch takes it to obnoxious levels. These Republicans in Congress know this guy's a fucking buffoon. But they love having all this power, so they stand and applaud everything the silly bastard says just to make it a good show. But they're overacting. Sometimes I swear the networks were running an overdubbed soundtrack with all the noise.

I half expected to hear Santorum yell out "Junior fuckin rocks dude!!" when he announced his support for the insane proposed homophobia ammendment.

I'm sorry dude, but my values are non-negotiable. give everyone the same equal rights but, we don't have to destroy the sacred union of marriage in the process.
Why is it ok to disregard the values this country was founded on?
Why do our children have to be subjected to homosexuals in public?
or better yet, Why do our court systems allow children to be adopted by gay couples?

The list goes on and i'm just not liberal like that.

The world is going mad and nobody knows right from wrong anymore. I just think it's wrong and our kids shouldn't have to live in such a vulgar society. I know my childhood wasn't like that.
No matter what we teach our children the draw and influence of society is a threat to their mental well being.
