Phoning it in...

i just don't have it in me to watch the president speak then do the analysis tonite. that being said i'll give you my take now in the form of my best guess.

*ALL SECURiTY ALL THE TIME. we'll hear about the war and how we're safer but (confusingly) we aren't that safe and we need bush to keep us safe.
*THE BUSH RECORD. this will be a small portion of the speech. expect him to tell us we're doing well and getting better. don't expect any specifics. just trust him. its true. alright? oh, did he mention we have to stay the course on the war on terrorism.

High on platitudes and low on results. hope you enjoy. i'll be out doing anythin else under the sun i can find more enjoyable. (unless something just goes crazy tonite and you'll see me back right here w/ Mr. Mooch egging me on)

WELL, I may have to watch now since Bush claims tonight's speech is as follows...

Bush described tonight's speech as "43 minutes of sheer wisdom"(NEWSDAY)

Wha?!?!?!? I mean, for SHEER entertainment value....

Heh.... Sheer wisdom. Obviously, this is not self-scribed by Bush himself. I missed the speech partly on purpose and, well, partly on purpose. So, I can't criticize, agree, or disagree with it yet.

But, I do plan to download and listen to all the speeches today while dutifully cleaning and relaxing around the house. Apple has made them available for free download via iTunes (link). If you have iTunes, you can download them here: link.

I don't show that Bush's speech has been loaded yet but it should be today.

It is certainly evident the elephants are using security and "faith" to rope in the sheep. I would like to believe this is transparent to most voters but see a new kamikaze-style Republican party -- all or nothing regardless of right or wrong.
