State of the union speech.So what.

Under George Bush it would seem that we have become a police state. Could anyone imagine an incident like this happening in the past. It seems to me that Bush's idea of democracy has a similarity and stink of Germany 1933

First ammendment to the constitution.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.


It would seem that Bush believes along with his right to spy on Americans he also believes he can curtail peaceful assembly and dissent.

Wearing a shirt is your idea of demonstrating.

Au1929,

You and I know that but there are those who refuse to see.

I was on the verge of vomiting last night as I listened to the garbage that spewed from george's mouth about Democracy. This man has to be certifiably insane if he thinks that he can continue to say one thing and do the exact opposite. He really seems to think (or at least whoever writes those hideous speeches thinks) that the majority of U.S. citizens are dumber than he is.

The crap that this illegal & law breaking occupant of the White House has gotten away with is truly amazing. I am glad to see that a few Republicans are finally realizing that he cares about as much for them as he does for the average American....Zilch, unless it involves large amounts of money or a vote in his favor.

The one man who amazes me is John McCain. He was all over the place last night, laughing, giggling and making an absolute fool of himself. I am sure that he was either drunk, smoking something funny or had found Laura's stash of happy pills.

Shw was welcome to wear`that t-shirt outside. Nothing has happened to free speech. Not only should she have been arrested, but the fashion police should have slapped her around as well.

It's the state of the union address, not a street performance. Decorum please.

It WAS announced on the news she was possibly carrying some sort of banner... was this reported later to be false? Also, there is no doubt whatsoever in my mind she would have stood up in the middle of the speech and disrupted it with her radical partisan political rant that only idiots and America haters agree with. Then she would have been carried out smiling with that traitor screw America smile of hers...

From Cindy Sheehan:

Dear Friends,

BLa bla bla...

Love and peace soon,
Cindy

That is why the left doesn't understand, we can rant too but we actually have some substance to what we have to say... Just because we turn the other cheek does not mean we turn our backs on treachery..

Cindy Who??? Her 15 minutes was up months ago.

Dull speech, nothing new.

I found it somewhat curious that during this past year, we lost a whole city in the South and it gets about 6 sentances at the end of the speech. Yet not one Dummycrat picked up on this.

Your rants contain no substance. They are just rabid foaming right-wing noise, repeated loudly.

Your attempt to silence dissent (calling those who dissent 'traitor' even though this is patently untrue and frankly UnAmerican) is ridiculous and just makes you look like an ass.

Oh look kids, another left wing puppet!

If being patriotic makes me look like an ass then bring it on...

There is no law against wearing T-shirts inside. The Bushies would have been better served to let her stay while wearing it; she would have looked silly.

Is there a law prohibiting what she did? Or have we decided that the 1st amendment is outdated as well?

What makes me a left wing puppet, exactly, while not making you a right-wing puppet?

And don't claim to be patriotic, please, while attempting to stifle dissent; the right to dissent is the heart of patriotism and what our forefathers died to protect, and I'll thank you to be more courteous to their legacy in the future.

You call obstruction on nearly every issue government? I call it special interest payoffs and kickbacks.
