I just watched Bush’s speech, and I really liked it. The widescreen, high definition picture and digital sound made it seem like Bush was in my living room… and slightly larger than I expected him to be. It would have been nice if he had made more use of the five channels, though, by perhaps throwing some object so we could hear it land behind us. Also, if he had a tank barge into the room, that could make for some great LFE effects.
I guess that’s all I have to say.
UPDATE: The Democratic response is in HD too. Maybe they’ll make better use of the medium by having some digital effects and explosions… but I doubt it.
Ooh! Whines in digital quality sound! It’s like they’re there in front of me, and I can barely hold back my punch response. Come on, Frank; don’t hurt your Toshiba.
Maybe the tank could accidently hit Sen. Kennedy?
I dug it…..now Tom Daschel and Nancy Pelosi are on there lying “Democrats have a commitment to making sure the armed forces are well trained”
Ok, not only is Kerry a drugged frenchman…he also seems to be a bobblehead of some sort…
Is my television messed up, or does Hitlery have extremely yellow (and oversized) teeth?
I love how Hillary claps, you can tell she isn’t even listening. Man, all this politics at once are hurting my brain.
Did you see ole’ flubby Kennedy? He looked like he was going to have an aneurism!!:P
We could only be so lucky.
What a kick-ass performance! (IMHO.)
As I say elsewhere (hint, hint), Teddy looked like the boozy uncle who we REALLY need to do something about THIS year, dear…. While Hillary looked as if she’d been fished out of the river after three days or so. And how about Charlie Rangel catching some Zzzz’s on national TV?
And who the hell gives a flying rat’s ass what Nancy Pelosi thinks?
This was not the speech of a President hoping to nurse a lead and coast to reelection. It was the rhetorical equivalent of “Go ahead. Make my day.”
BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
My eldest daughter left the room cause Nancy’s “watch me flex my neck” smiling was creeping her out. Me? Bah. I’m tough.
Hold me.
Time to be more caring. We should all get together and push Ted Kennedy off the beach and back into the ocean. (But only because I don’t use oil lamos anymore.)
Her neck flexing was tame compared to her “I can see through your skull” gaze and persistent teeth clenching.
I never thought I’d be relieved to see Tom Daschle’s face…
Oops 😛 that was me.
Is it just me, or did the bulges on kennedy’s forehead get bigger and bigger as the speech went on?
My impessions:
Give Tom Daschle red, messed-up hair, and you have another Chucky, but with less character.
Nancy Pelosi looks like one of the Animatronic figures at Disneylandworldempire. I swear I heard the servos whirring.
Ted Kennedy looks like a huge zit. “Quick, Sis, bring the Clearasil!”
Did the Dim-O-crats have magnetic butt locks to keep them in their chairs? I could see Daschle and Pelosi pressing red buttons all night.
Didn’t you see the Nazgul fly by about 45 minutes into it?
You guys crack me up…
Wait a sec! I’m the only one who is supposed to be funny on this site! Damn your eyes!
I really want to know if they added the list of allied countries before or after Howard Dean’s meltdown. As much fun as Bush seemed to be having giving the state of the union, I was kind of hoping he’d give in and tack on a little dean-scream. I know I did…

Frank at IMAO tells you all you really need to know about the State of the Union Address I just
I didn’t want to watch the democrats, but I couldn’t take my eyes off of Nancy Pelosi’s face. It’s been stretched so tight I bet she can’t close her eyes at night and we know she can’t shut her mouth. Scary.
I’m with jonag. Pelosi’s face looked like it was painted directly on her skull. What was that like in hi-def Frank? Could you see the stitch marks? Was it as unnerving to see as a Michael Jackson interview?
What HE Said
…mostly, anyways. Check out Spoons’ State of the Union coverage. I believe the President’s pants actually just caught fire. Best….
Rest assured, Frank. You’ll always be the funniest of funny. But we benefit from trickle down humornomics!
Rich: Running into Teddy would be a waste of a million dollar vehicle. It would just sink out of sight.
I am new to this site and I may be stupid to ask this, but I just have to know and maybe someone can answer this question:
Does Nancy Pelosi have eyelids?????
Yeah, she has eyelids. It’s just that they are on top of her head now so you can’t see them.
So then her eyebrows are on the back of her neck???? That is scary.
“Does Nancy Pelosi have eyelids?????”
No one knows, for she stares deadly and quietly.
Nancy Pelosi – offspring of Skeletor?
Frank, “too late” (points to eyes)
Did you also notice when Pelosi smiled, her shoulders kept shrugging up?
gulp don’t remind me!
Definitely the best part of the speech:
“Key provisions of the PATRIOT Act are set to expire next year.”
(Mindless Democrats cheer)
“The terrorist threat will not expire on that schedule.”
(Democrats all but cry, “Doh!”)
A beautiful piece of theater.
NAKED NANCY PELOSI!!!! Ha..scared you, huh?
