State of the Union Address

Worst State of the Union Address Ever
And one reason is clear: For diplomacy to be effective, words must be credible - and no one can now doubt the word of America.
So all the lies the Bush administration told about Iraq's WMD--'words must be credible'?? what is he talking about here?
from the deck of a carrier in the Pacific, to a mess hall in Baghdad.
Cheap stunts.
already the Kay Report identified dozens of weapons of mass destruction-related program activities and significant amounts of equipment that Iraq concealed from the United Nations.
Lies on top of lies. 'Words must be credible'???
This particular criticism is hard to explain to our partners in Britain, Australia, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand, Italy, Spain, Poland, Denmark, Hungary, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Romania, the Netherlands, Norway, El Salvador, and the 17 other countries that have committed troops to Iraq.
How many of these coalition partners have troops on the ground in Iraq? More lies.
And we should limit the burden of government on this economy by acting as good stewards of taxpayer dollars. In two weeks, I will send you a budget that funds the war, protects the homeland, and meets important domestic needs, while limiting the growth in discretionary spending to less than four percent. This will require that Congress focus on priorities, cut wasteful spending, and be wise with the people's money. By doing so, we can cut the deficit in half over the next five years.
By limiting limiting the growth in discretionary spending to less than four percent . . . we can cut the deficit in half over the next five years. More lies.
