Thank you, and isn't this Chief Delphi? And aren't we supposed to be talking about robots?

Sorry if this is too bold for a first post

I think that many people here are mature enough to handle a political debate. After all, debate != fight.

We don't need to be talking robots, especially in this forum, which is designed to be for off-topic discussion anyhow.

As far as the speech goes, I too was pleasantly surprised by the acknowledgment of Pelosi, but I'm somewhat jaded about the government and the path that the country is on. I'll leave it at that.

Personally, I think Bush is going to have a hard time for his last 2 years in office. The unified government of the past few years had allowed alot of legislation to flow through and very few vetoes to be issued (1 if I remember correctly). However, this Democratic Congress will propose alot of legislation that Bush will not agree with. However, as many Republicans jump off the Bush bandwagon, there will probably be enough swing voters who side with the Democrats to override Bush's veto on many bills. Alot of Republicans are already jumping off the bandwagon due to how Bush is handing the war in Iraq. As for what else Bush said in his speech...does he honestly expect the Democrats to go down his agenda and hit everything? I think that the Democrats are gonna be more focused on their own agenda, especially with the likely hood of seeing a Democratic President in 2008.

That's my $0.02.

I agree with 90% of what Bush says, but disagree with 90% of what he does. He could quite possibly be the worst president in the history of our nation.
