I’ll be here liveblogging the speech until it’s all over!! Hang out and we’ll chat.
2005: I gotta say, the huge cheer for the SCOTUS justices just warmed my heart. Eat it, Kennedy. Eat it until you puke it up with your bourbon.
2007: YEAH. Big cheers for the man!
2008: I’d hate having to shake all those hands. I’d be walking that aisle saying, “Yeah you’re a prick…Yeah, you too…oh, here, I’ve got a big “kiss my ass” for you too…yeah, bitch…”
2011: HA! Look at the Dems and their little golf claps. Secretly they’re all staring at Alito and muttering under their breath.
2012: First up, a nod to Coretta Scott King. Nicely put.
2013: “I’m mindful of the history…” Yeah, the history of you scumbags trying to screw me every chance you get.
2014: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! lost video feed for a second. There we go, it’s back.
2015: “The only way to secure peace is by our leadership…” Yes, let’s talk about that. Chime in, people, feel free.
2016: “We will act boldly in freedom’s cause.” YEEEEAH. I love it. Eat that too, Dhimmicrats. Just so you know, “bold” doesn’t mean “bring them home NOW.”
2017: UGH UGH UGH “Noble faith”? Come on, George. Get a pair of balls and say what most of us bloggers already know. There is nothing “noble” about Islam.
2018: “We love our freedom, and we will fight to keep it.” Yes, yes, yes. Looove the one-liners. now just throw in a one liner like “and look, Kennedy’s drunk again.”
2020: “There is no peace in retreat, there is no honor in retreat….we will never surrender to evil.” Yeah, stand up and cheer that. There you go. Get up, Pelosi you hag.
2021: “We’re on the offensive in Iraq…” it’s sad that he has to explain, again, what we’re doing in Iraq. it’s even sadder that it’s being squelched in the media.
2023: The decision to bring troops home “will be made by military commanders, not by politicians in Washington, DC.” Amen. Shut up, Murtha.
2025: Wow. He’s really taking it to them. “We must keep our word, defeat our enemies, and stand behind the American military…” hell yes. I love this. I have goosebumps. ;)
2026: Oh my GOD. The soldier letter is amazing. I will get the quote later. That soldier’s parents are in the audience. Bless them. Okay now I’m crying.
2028: “As we honor our brave troops, let us never forget the sacrifices of our military families.”
2030: “Hamas must recognize Israel…disarm, and work for peace…” They won’t of course, so we’ll end up having to go spank them too. (I hope.)
2032: Finally, yes. let’s talk about Iran. “the nations of the world MUST NOT permit the regime of Iran to gain nuclear weapons.”
2033: Hey! As long as you’re mentioning drug trafficking…can I just offer immigration as a topic?
2034: YES! he brought up the Patriot Act! NICELY DONE!
2035: YES. “We will not sit back and wait to be hit again.” Good, good. And the crowd goes wild. -( Oh, wait. That’s just the sane side. Never mind.
2037: “Together let us protect our country, support the mene and women who defend us, and lead this world toward freedom.” Ha. Can’t say much to that, can you, Demies?
2039: Okay, I guess we’re talking about the economy now, and if he mentions the amnesty proposal I’m gonna be a bit irate.
2041: “I urge Congress to make the tax cuts permanent.” yeeesssss. Eliminating 140 programs (I hope a few of them have the word “welfare” in them…)
2042: oooh he brought in the line-item veto. And here we are on Social Security. “Congress did not act last year on my proposal to save Social Security.” And all the Dems stand up and cheer like the jackasses they are. And Bush NAILS them with “yeah but the problem isn’t going away.”
2045: (I’m just curious. Do they ever get tired of stand-up, sit-down, clap? This is like a noisy Catholic church.)
2046: WHOA. HE SAID SECURE BORDERS! “Stronger immigration and border protection.”
2047: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO He said Guest worker. NO NO NO NO NO.
2048: On to health care (that’s all we get on the border??). He wants medical liability reform.
2049: Yes, Jo, they are looking like asses, aren’t they? On to energy! OOOH he brought up nuclear energy. Good good good. No reason for this foreign dependence on oil.
2050: 75% reduction on foreign oil dependence by 2025. This gets both sides standing. he’s announcing an “American Competitive Initative.”
2052: Why does the Muslim woman next to Laura look so disgruntled? Oh, I know! it’s because her neck is sweating.
2053: Crime rates are down to lowest rates since 1970s. Welfare cases have dropped. Drug use is down. There are fewer abortions now than in the last 30 years. (of course, one is too many.)
2056: Oh, yes. let’s bring up gay marriage too. Wait, wait…don’t change subjects…”Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve…” Come on, just let me hear ONE president in my lifetime say that phrase. lol
2057: YEAH! one more hand for Alito. I’m dancing right now, really I am. Suck it down, O Idiot Twins from Massachusetts.
2058: “Human life is a gift from our Creator…” AND He got God in there too. I love it. The ACLU is bashing their heads in now. I know it.
2059: I can’t type fast enough to get all the good quotes. he’s just kicking serious ass.
2100: Laura Bush is one of the classiest ladies out there. She just is. She’s beautiful, intelligent, and CLASSY. love her. now, Hillary, on the other hand…she looks like the north end of a southbound pug dog.
2101: Equality of opportunity…not equality of results. Yes, Teddy, there is a difference.
2102: Hi, Heidi. Nice of you to join us. Say hello to my lovely co-writer, folks. Woo.
2103: “No new infections”? Yeah right. That’ll happen when people stop thinking casual sex is okay.
2104: “Will we turn back, or finish well?” Ohhhhh my, I love his style. “We will finish well.” This is better than chocolate.
What a rousing, reat speech. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Stay tuned, because I’m going to liveblog the Democrat response as well, and I guarantee that’ll be even more fun. ;) What do you think? Did he achieve his goals? Did he get his points across? Let’s hear what you think!
