South Park for an hour instead...Episodes about LOTR & the Special Olympics still reminded me of the "Bush Reich"

Now I'm going to go home and hope that my blood pressure comes down lol- the Dems I talked to had really good responses to what the president said - and surprisingly the Republican I talked to did as well...so not all hope is lost tonight...

I refused to turn on the television. I wonder how many times he said "Freedom" or "Liberty."

So yeah, I'm glad I didn't watch.

The only times I've watched Bush is when they show clips of him on a comedy show here. Every single time he's appeared, without realising it I've covered my eyes and starting singing "la la la" to drown out his voice. It's just too embarassing to watch.

SOU = State of the Union. "He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient." It's basically an hour-long speech in which the president addresses both houses of Congress and gives an overview of what he feels the most important issues are and what he hopes to accomplish in his term. It's superficially long because it's so annoyingly ritualistic

... everyone erupts into applause after every other sentence to express approval (or not) and the pundits all count the instances of applause to gauge reaction to the speech later

I am laughing my ****ing ass off.

The State of the Union Address is the same forum in which he lied to the world about Saddam obtaining uranium from Africa. It's also the same forum in which he lectured the American people about steroid use in professional sports last year.

My parents think I am crazy. So does my sister. I am very open about how I feel, my dad and I used to get into really big arguments about our little presy. WTF! I used to have faith in our country that we could do a lot better than this. But now I am convinced that we are one of the dumbest countries, and it's gotten to the point where they can pull ANYTHING over on us.

BUT- I still fight the good fight!
