Um...was there a Democratic response tonight?
I saw the end of Bush's speech, and then I saw some pundits. This struck me as weird, so I flipped over to C-Span and saw that the House and Senate were in session.

Still, I would have liked to see Howard Dean or somebody...I had to leave after that, but was there any Democratic response at all???

3. Flipping through channels, I caught part of an ABC interview of
Joe Biden, standing next to a House Republican!?!?!!? (I forgot his name, but you'd recognize it).

They were both agreeing AGAINST B*'s SS Plan!

OK, who's the Uniter and who's the Divider?

5. Usually there's only a planned response after major speeches.
This was scheduled as a 'press conference'.

Funny, huh?

but Malloy gave the only true Democratic response.

10. Dial back a few years to Clinton...
I promise you if Pres. Clinton had made a speech
of that magnitude there would've been a response
from the Pugs.

11. it wasn't possible

What's the point of saying "None of made sense to us, there wasn't anything new, you and we both know it was all a parading of a stench-emitting pig with a new shade of lipstick"?

Responding to it would have made it appear that there was something worth responding to. Ignoring it was the right message.
