The President's comments on alternative renewable sources of energy was promising--we depend to much on Middle Eastern oil, I'm tired of making these countries rich...

Bush's support for "civilians assisting in Iraq" is outrageous. This is a classic case of the military-industrial complex, what he really meant was big companies like Haliburton are private industry war profiteers, they send private citizens that the government pays to do jobs that the military used to do for themselves like peeling potatoes, etc.

As far as the rest of the speech about 1/3 of it was about again connecting Iraq and the War on Terror...Blah Blah Blah...He basically begged for more time to put more troops into this Billion dollar war and his New Strategy. What new strategy? Sounds like the same old stuff to me...Democrats always stood and clapped when Bush called for us to support the troops. They always want to show their support for the troops it is pathetic--most people know Democrats are patriotic and are not anti-military, why do they always have to publicly let the American people they are against the war but behind the troops? I think we should support the troops by removing them from the war and taking them out of harm's way...I believe Republicans call this "Cut and Run" but it is better than "Stay and Die."

The clapping thing was ridiculous, I felt like most of the politicians were sheep. They clapped for everything and it was unnecessary. If I were a Senator of Congressmen I would sit right in my seat...it's not like the President was issuing the New Deal.
