SOTU GOP Style

What gets a Republican off his/her butt? What key taglines got the House and Senate majority all hot and bothered last night?

The GOP only standing ovations followed the dramatic statements below.

  • Fellow citizens, we are in this fight to win, and we are winning.
  • -- so I ask you to reauthorize the Patriot Act.
  • -- because we will not sit back and wait to be hit again.
  • We hear claims that immigrants are somehow bad for the economy -- even though this economy could not function without them.
  • ,and make the tax cuts permanent.
  • And we can tackle this problem together, if you pass the line-item veto.
  • -- I ask Congress to pass medical liability reform this year.
  • The Supreme Court now has two superb new members, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Sam Alito.

Make of it what you will. No matter how you slice it, it's a odd assortment of priorities.

Nice - the standing ovation count. I never thought of that angle (i always enjoy the word count, however).

Translation:
We're loosing the war and alienating other mid east countries
I need to take away the rest of your rights
We will attack Iran
We need slave labor
Finish bankrupting the country
I want all the power
I've been bought off by the AMA
I can now get all of the power with my cronies on the court
