Johnny Lead Foot here, and I'm taking on Bush's State of the Union...

John continues an 8-part series that explores President Bush's addresses to the U.S. population called State of The Union, from his first inaugural speech in 2001 to his State of the Union in 2008.  John brilliantly pastes Bush's words.  Just his words.  He left it up to us to figure out what to make of them.  I had to comment on our General's comments.  Enjoy.  The bold is necessary for my fury.

This evening I will set forth policies to advance that ideal at home and around the world."  I thought last year, in 2004, you said you weren't into pushing our values onto anyone!  Hmmmm...  Are you listening to yourself?

"Tonight, with a healthy, growing economy, with more Americans going back to work, with our nation an active force for good in the world -- the state of our union is confident and strong."  Yeeeeeahhh.

State of the Union, Part V: 2005

As a countdown to Bush leaving the office of the President of these United States, we at HAWT will look back at his addresses to the Union in an 8-part series, starting with his Inaugural Address in 2001 and ending with his State of the Union in 2008. 

"Political rhetoric."  It is empty, hollow and is rarely followed through on.  Of course, we all want schools to be better.  We all want the economy to get better.  We all want lower taxes, added safety.  We all want those basic things that political contenders blabber about... and when they get into office, they continue to blabber.  It seems like blabbering is politicking.  Policy-making isn't politicking. 

Knowing how everything has turned out for Bush's stay at the helm, let's look back at George Bush's choppy, poorly delivered political blabber.  In this series, you will see cherry-picked excerpts of George W. Bush's speech.  These are all his own words.  There are some gems in here.  A new entry in the series, State of the Union, will appear on the first of every month until January 1, 2009.
