Bush's speach writers need a raise

OMG! This was one of the best SOTU speaches I've ever heard. I wept like a baby three times, the most when the fallen Marine's parents were honored and his mother hugged, then put her son's dog tag around the arm of an Iraqi woman.

It will be interesting to hear the spin from both sides of the aisle for this speach.

So far, the local news stations around here didn't have much bad to say about it, I believe that's a first. I was impressed with most of it, although I would have liked to hear Bush decry illegal immigrants and pledge more resources to squelch illegal immigration.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to see it. I was moving a pool table. That's not something you can just DO, it turns out. Takes a lot of work.
Anyway, I'm hoping I can get a copy. I was impressed with the Iraqi lady hugging the Marine's mother. I was also impressed when I found out how many people dressed in purple to honor the Iraqis bravery in voting. I wasn't even too disappointed by the Democrats booing Bush like little children twice. They can't continue acting this ridiculous for long before people start to notice.
