State of the Union?
Here it is two days untill President Bush gives the state of the union speach yet there are those who already are examining and disputing what he said. First i want to know how they can dispute what he said when he hasn't said anything yet. Next Why is it that the other party depending in who is in the White House contridicts what is said.
Have you ever looked back at some of the past rebuttles? They are always naysayers full of doom on how the present administration is leading us down the road to destruction.
Recently it is the far left of the Democratic party that throws out absurdities and falsehoods that are laughable. Laughable unless you belong to the far left and are caught up in the vast right wing conspirocy that they claim exisits to eliminate personal freedoms and liberties.

The Truth About the State of our Union
by Dennis J. Kucinich
The facts are clear. Our economy is struggling and leaving tens of millions of Americans behind. According to the non-partisan National Journal, since President Bush first stood before Congress and the nation in 2001, the median income in this country has decreased, the jobless rate has jumped from 3.9% to 4.9% and the number of families living in poverty has increased from 8.7% to 10.2%. Our trade deficit has doubled. Inflation has gone up. Personal bankruptcies have gone up. Consumer debt has gone up. College tuition has gone up. And, the price of gas has gone up. All the while, this Administration has turned a $128 billion federal budget surplus into a $319 billion deficit.
Today, almost 6 million more Americans do not have any health insurance than when President Bush took office. In total, over 45.5 million Americans, or over 15% of our total population, have no health care coverage at all.
During his 2003 address, President Bush told the nation that Saddam Hussein "had biological weapons sufficient to produce over 25,000 liters of anthrax", "materials sufficient to produce more than 38,000 liters of botulinum toxin", "as much as 500 tons of sarin, mustard and VX nerve agent" and "upwards of 30,000 munitions capable of delivering chemical agents".
(OH YES THERE IS MORE AS WELL. THE UNITED NATIONS EVEN AFTER WE STORMED INTO BAHGDAD DOCUMENTED THESE AGENTS.)
Today, almost three years after the start of the President's war of choice, we know Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction, had no connection to al-Qaeda and posed no threat to our nation. Yet, our armed forces are bogged down in the middle of civil war that our own generals say cannot be won by military force. Our presence in Iraq is counterproductive and has cost the lives of over 2,200 US troops and $250 billion.
(A CLEAR FALSEHOOD SPREAD BY THE LEFT. DONE IN OREDER TO DISCREDIT THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION.KEEP REPETEING THE LIE AND PEOPLE BELIEVE. OUR TROOPS ARE FAR FROM BOGGED DOWN WINNING THE HEARTS OF THE IRQI PEOPLE AT EVERY TURN. BUILDING SELF ESTEEM AND AN INFRASTRUCTURE IRAQ HAS NOT SEEN IN DECADES. PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR ALL, BOYS AND GIRLS. THE OPPERTUNITY TO START THIER OWN BUSINESSES AND INDEPENDANT LIVES.)
President Bush has delivered four State of the Union addresses since the attacks on our nation on 9/11. In four speeches, the President has never once mentioned Osama bin Laden, the mastermind of the terror attacks on this nation. The status of the FBI's most wanted man apparently is not important to the state of our union. Yet, in the same four speeches, President Bush has mentioned Saddam Hussein 24 times, and Iraq 78 times.
(HMMM, WELL OVER THE LAST THREE YEARS IRAQ AND SADDAM HAVE BEEN THE PRIORITY, IF INFORMATION ON OSAMMA WAS TO BE RELEASED THE MSM WOULD HAVE BLABBED ANY AND ALL OPERATIONS TO HIM AND HIS PEOPLE. FACE FACTS OSAMA HAS NOT BEEN FORGOTTEN EXCEPT BY THE LEFT.)
President Bush used the opening of his 2003 State of the Union to praise the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. This year our nation, and the world, saw the result of the failure of this massive reorganization of our government. As Katrina rolled ashore, destroying large cities and small towns in four states, it was FEMA, once an independent cabinet level agency--but now rolled into Department of Homeland Security--that failed to react. The searing image of thousands of Americans stranded without food and water dying on American streets will be the lasting legacy of the Department of Homeland Security, not a reorganized government "mobilizing against the threats of a new era" as the President described in his speech.
(THIS PART OF KISINBITCHES SPEACH AND RANT ARE JUST INTOLERABLE. MAY SEC. BROWN LIVE IN SHAME FOR GIVING THE LEFT AN EXCUSE FOR THIER LACK OF ACTION DURING KATRINA. FACTS ARE FACTS. LOUISIANNA GOVENOR BLANCO WAS COMPLETELY INEPT IN HER FIRST RESPONSE. MAYOR RACIAL NAGIN WAS EVEN WORSE . THEN HIS RACIAL SLURS AFTERWARDS ON THE REBUILDING GET A FREE PASS. THESE TWO WHO LACK ANY LEADERSHIP AND CRISIS MANAGMENT SKILLS SHOULD BE PROSECUTED FOR THIER NEGLIGENCE. COMPLETE IGNORANCE OF MAINTANCE ON LEVEEES. DISAPPEARING FEDERAL MONIES TO KEPP AND UPGRADE SAID LEVEES. THEN ABSOLUTELY NO PLAN WHAT SO EVER FOR FIRST RESPONSE LOCALLY AFTER DECADES OF WARNINGS THIS COULD HAPPEN. FEMA RESPONDED THREE DAYS AFTER THE LEVEES BROKE LIKE THEY DO FOR ALL DISASTERS. IT TAKES 72 HOURS TO MOIBILIZE NATIONALLY FOR DISASTERS. SUPPLIES, TRANSPORT, APPROPRIATIONS OF NEEDED SUPPLIES, COORDINATION ON MEDICAL, LAW, AND SEARCH RESCUE TEAMS DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH A SNAP OF THE FINGURES. HERE WE HAVE THE LEFT COMPLETELY IGNOTREING THE TRUTH AND PASSING THE BUCK UP THE LADDER TO SOMEONE ELSE ... THIS TIME THE ADMINISTRATION. AS FOR NATIONAL SECURITY ... WE HAVEN'T BEEN ATTACK NOW HAVE WE. ARRESTS OF THOSE WHO WANT TO DO US HARM AND TRAITORS TO THIER FELLOW CITIZENS HAVE BEEN STOPPED. MORE WORK IS NEEDED AND THE OPEN BOARDER FREE TRADE RADICALS NEED TO BE REASONED WITH ON THE DANGER OF THE SOUTHERN BOARDER. OVERALL HOMELAND SECURITY IS BETTER.)
In his 2004 and 2005 addresses, the President spent a considerable amount of time advocating policies that would roll back much of the social progress made since the New Deal. In 2004, the President touted a Medicare prescription drug bill that will fatten the pockets of the pharmaceutical industry, endangering the future finances of the entire Medicare program, while leaving seniors confused and empty handed as they try to fill their prescriptions under the new plan. In 2005, the President used his address to promote his plan strip seniors of the guaranteed promise of Social Security, and replace it with a risky scheme to gamble their future in the stock market.
(ROLL BACK SOCIAL PROGRESS? MORE LIKE TRY AND STOP THE NEVER ENDING HANDOUTS WHILE PUNISHING THOSE WHO ACHIEVE. PROPOSEING IDEAS AND PLANS TO CORRECT A SOCIAL SECURITY NIGHTMARE THAT WILL CRIPPLE THE NEXT GENERATION AND DENY THEM ANY OF THIER HARD EARNED MONIES BECAUSE IT WAS GIVEN AWAY TO LIBERAL WELFARE PROGRAMS AIDING IN THE EVER INCREASEING WELFARE STATE. WHAT PLAN DO YOU PROPOSE OH WISE DEMOCRATES. HOW DO YOU PLAN TO PREVENT AN INCREASE OF TAXES TO PAY FOR YOUR RETIREMENT AT THE HANDS OF THE YOUNG.)
What the President has in store for his message this year is not known yet. But, we do know the President Bush will speak in glowing terms about the state of our union. The truth is the state of our union is in great peril. This Administration is conducting a war with no end in Iraq, illegally spying on Americans at home, overseeing an economy that is increasingly leaving more and more Americans behind and abandoning Gulf in their hour of great need.
(OH AN ADMITTAL THAT HE DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE PRESIDENT WILL SAY YET WE HAVE EXAMINED AND LOOKED AT HIS PREDETERMINED REBUTTLE AS IF IT WAS SET IN STONE. YES HE IS RIGHT THE STATE OF THE UNION IS IN GREAT PERIL. WITH ENIMIES WORLD WIDE, AND THE KEEPERS OF THE SOUTHERN GATE ASLEEP PROPPING OPEN THE DOOR TO A LARGER MORE VIOLANT ATTACK. THE FACT WE ARE GIVING AID TO BUDDING PEACEFUL DEMOCRACIES AROUND THE WORLD WHILE PROTECTING THE WEAK. OUR GOVERNMENT IS NOT LEAVING ITS PEOPLE BEHIND ... CERTAIN FACTIONS ARE LEAVING THIS COUNTRY IN THE LURCH TO PROMOTE THIER RADICAL ADGENDA.)
If recent history is any precedent, then next week we should see more of the same old dance around reality that has been the hallmark of President Bush's annual address.
(THATS FOR SURE ... THE SAME OLD SONG AND DANCE /SPIN, HALF TRUTHS FROM THE PARTY NOT IN POWER TRYING TO SCORE POLITICAL POINTS IN THE NEXT ELECTION.)
