Notes from the State of the Union

Notes from the State of the Union:

• Every President always says "The state of our union is strong!" Can't anyone be honest ever?
• Less than 2 minutes before a "September the Eleventh" reference.
• Every year Bush wears a blue tie and Cheney and Other Old Dude behind Bush wear red ones.
• I think Lieberman looks like a frog. Whitney thinks he looks like a turtle.
• Bush appears to have eaten his own upper lip.
• 3 Democrats applauded Bush's urge to reauthorize the Patriot Act. One was Lieberman. Lieberman is Bush's Bitch.
• Bush often looks when giving public addresses as if he might cry at any moment.
• "Freedom is on the march." I hate this phrase. Really? Where's it going? Because it sure seems to be leaving here. (See Patriot Act.)
• "Congress did not act last year on my proposal to fix Social Security." And ALL the Dems give a standing O! Too FUNNY! Bush was pissed.
• Oh crap! Refill martini or continue to rubberneck on the train wreck?
• Increase in Ethanol dependency-well hell I guess he's got to throw as many dogs a bone as possible.
• No Child Left Behind is a success?? Um, did he speak to anyone like teachers, school administrators, local school boards about this?
• That's right! You ALL better applaud Sandra Day O'Connor!
• Ok I've gotta get another martini!
• Comment from my niece after watching me watching: "This is like a comedy for you."
• Kinda short! Didn't even get to finish my second martini!
• The postgame commentary is fun to see. For like 5 minutes all the networks fumble a bit until they all figure out what the message will be, then they all spout the same opinions.
• I'm having a third martini.
