I have to admit, that Ted Kennedy was annoying. I think it was wise of the Dem Presidential candidates to skip the SotU or else it would have been their mugs up on the screen instead, and it would have been a no-win situation for them. In regards to the speech itself, I was not complaining about what President Bush said, it was how it was said and the way it was put together. He has put together a very good speech writing team, and I think they missed the boat on this one. Now, I realize that this speech was not targeted at me, but at his base consituency but I still think he was flat.
Also, Ustwo, I am not a socialist, I am a big fan of capitalism just like most Democrats and Republicans. I refrain from calling you a Fascist, please don't call me a socialist. (I am not really upset by this, I just think it would be more civil.
