It's a damn good thing he's not under oath.

I'm just waiting for the plan on when we're going ot start bombing Iran

WAIT...did he just say education? And they are cutting 11 billion from student loans?

Oh crap, we can't start analyzing because that would take way too much space.

NO HE DID NOT JUST ASK FOR THE LINE ITEM VETO!

You fucking beat me to it, Pink! UUUhhh UH Gir'frend!

And, by the way, didn't the court take the line item veto away from Clinton?

Tim Kaine with the facial expressions, gestures and shrugs is like a bad comedian at some shitty resort in the Catskills.

Let's call him shecky. I like the message but his body language is terrible.

the goddamn sound is off on shecky... anyone else seeing this?

Frist looks like a cadaver on split screen with Obama.

Frist was all up on Bush's ass as he was walking out. He must REALLY want to be president.

Really? Well, apparently he didn't pick up any color while he was up there.

HAHA. But seriously, what a pitiful speech.

Good speech from the president.

news - yeah, I guess... if we broaded the definition of speech to anyone who stands while speaking semi-coherently. 'Good' is an interesting adjective to use. You must have started drinking far earlier than I.

What precisely did you find so good?

the optimism (yeah, I liked that, so shoot me), the alternative energy initiative, and the boldness, whether you agree with the plan or not (and I haven't decided myself), of his statement on the terrorist wiretap program, for starters.

alternative energy? check out

I'd like to welcome our R friends to the party.

The wiretap thing is going to be the noose 'round his neck. That was a stupid ass program that wouldn't have stopped 9/11... communications between agencies would have done that.

The wiretap thing is bogus, 'cause he defended the wrong thing. No one complained or cared about the international calls -- those have been made through FISA for decades. The requests have gone up -- and have never been turned down -- since 9/11 and the Patriot Act, but those international taps are all "secret court" approved. What's more, if it's an "emergency" you can just start tapping phones, and you have two days to get the court's approval ex post facto. So if there's really an emergency and we don't want to let "terrorists slip away" he can follow the law.

What people didn't like was the domestic tapping that no one got approval to do.
The domestic stuff is completely different. It's just hard to get everyone to learn how, especially when he just meshed those together.
