Copy Of Bush's 2007 SOTU Address Leaked!!
Edited on Tue Jan-23-07 02:25 AM by Hissyspit
Found among the contents of a briefcase in a taxicab in Washington D.C. earlier tonight:

9:10 P.M. EST



THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all. Madam Speaker, Vice President Cheney, members of Congress, members of the Supreme Court and diplomatic corps, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens:

Tonight the state of our Union is strong.

Exploitative introduction of misrepresented personage in the audience.

Shout-out to Joe Lieberman.

Claim of success actually attributable to someone other than himself.

Claim of success that actually occurred DESPITE policies of current administration.

Unearned, dispicable manipulation through reference to public support for U.S. military.

Excuse.

Excuse.

Weak attempt at propaganda.

Novel Rovian strategy.

Declaration of major national project that will deliberately never come to fruition.

Disingenuous declaration of major policy change.

Appropriation of inspirational words originating from a historical American leader of true integrity.

Misrepresentation of statistical truth.

Direct 'War on Terror' reference.

Implied 'War on Terror' reference.

'War on Terror,'

'War on Terror,'

'War on Terror,'

Iraq,

Iran,

Iran,

Iran,

Iran,

Iran,

'Newkler' threat.

Patriotic cliche.

Insinuation of coming really, really horrific idea.

Duplicitous, invalid, illogical justification for implication of the coming really, really horrific idea.

They hate us for our freedom.

Desperately insincere, self-serving call for bipartisanship.

Veiled implication Democratic Party-controlled Congress an aid to the terrorists.

Yet another bizarre controversial declaration destined to haunt American history.

Absense of reference to the deficit.

Absense of reference to New Orleans.

Absense of reference to 2 million-plus refugees from Iraq.

Absense of reference to unnecessary human toll.

Last-minute, two-faced response to corporate call for responsible climate policy.

Coded theo-fascist language.

Out-and-out lie.

Sociopathic robotic look.

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Empty generalized nationalistic rhetoric.

Who gives a shit? I'm the Decider.

Flop sweat.

Goodnight and may God bless America. :(

1. Well, I'll be damned!
Either you actually DID manage to obtain a copy of the speech, or you are downright prescient.

IMHO, the ONLY place you might be off-track is here, and I quote:

"Sociopathic robotic look.

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

Blah,

War on terror ..."

I believe you have missed a 'Blah' here, and it could be the defintive 'Blah' of the entire evening.

You're right, as usual, Nance. It must be a first draft. Redacted? :P

5. Typical Rove ...
Plant an alleged true copy of the STFU speech, having carefully excised THE most important 'Blah' of the evening.

I can't believe we keep falling for his tired old tricks ...

(PS: If I could recommend this thread a thousand times, I would. Brilliantly written!)

But glad to be able to give it one more :kick:!!!!!!!

4. How'd you get your hands on that briefcase? This must be the original -
they haven't fixed the spelling yet from Newkler to NukeYaLer (now that I'm thinking about it, he's been saying "Nuke ya later Iran" all along. Good job! I'll be checking back in the morning to see it on the front page!!

11. I agree, it must be fake, because I doubt Bush could pronounce "Misrepresentation"...
...even if you gave him three tries at it. :D

34. Man, you were right... I can't believe how desperate and disgusting it is.
I thought he'd just go with plural 'War On Terror' references, but he's going on about 9/11, 9/11, 9/11.

The Bewsh SOTU speech Drinking Game.

I guess it can only be played once a year, though. The bullshit would cause instant liver damage.
