State of the Union
I was wondering if anyone happened to catch the State of the Union address on Tuesday. I found it to be an important event to find what our president has in store for the upcoming year. Polls have been showing the President to be having the lowest approval of any president since Nixon and the Watergate scandal. I believe it's important that we are informed of our president's intent, especially in years of a possible second term, and continue to hear these goals and use them to base a decision on whether we agree with it or not. This is the basis of a democratic system. It allows us to make an opinion on what President Bush thinks, and use that to make the biggest possible impact on our elections as we can. President Bush spoke of the importance of this years Senate and House elections. This is especially crucial that those who are able to vote do to help their party gain power in both the Senate and the House. President Bush also spoke a lot about the war, and how crucial it was that we stay in Iraq and finish what we came there to do. During this elaborate 30 minute section in which Bush spoke only of Iraq and the war, the camera would cut between scenes of Bush's speech, and Hilary Clinton laughing. I found this paticularly funny especially in a place of so many high prestigious people. That's all I have on the State of the Union Address for now.
