Here's what I heard Bush say tonight in his SoTU speech (btw - WAY too much clappin' going on):

> Watch out, terrorists are right around the corner but you can count on us -- and only us -- to keep them away
> Thank a veteran but don't expect us to help them out financially in any way.
> Social Security is a thing of the past.
> There may be a job or two to be had at the National Endowment for Democracy since its budget's been doubled.
> So we didn't give schools enough money to implement the NCLB Act -- suck it up, will ya?
> Make tax cuts permanent and I'll cut the deficit in half within five years -- trust me on this one.
> Steroids are bad.
> Teenagers who get STDs do require our financial support.
> Liberal judges are out of control and the only way to protect marriage is to amend -- AMEND -- the Constitution [this one is particulary galling to me - I doubt I could find 10 people in that room who have never strayed, truly respect their spouse or have divorced one or more times.]
and last but certainly not least
> As long as God says it's okay, we'll just keep doing what he tells me to do.
