Cool Of course he will be lieing...

Found this little ditty too! Maybe get you all worked up! Yes, it's unfair to find fault before the speech is given but, hey....let's face it, if it's like his last speeches (all of them), it will just be more of the same....lies...the same lies we have already heard. Maybe some new lies? That will be great!

State of the Union—Is Bush Telling the Truth?
31-Jan-2006



President Bush gives his annual State of the Union address on Januarary 31st. US voters will be watching Bush closely on television. We recently posted a story about scientific ways to spot spin among politicians. Now we have more scientific information on what to look for.
Movement analyst Karen Kohn Bradley studies the nonverbal and movement behaviors of political leaders. In order to detect political “spin” (a polite synonym for "lies"), she says we should look for the following:

The Entrance: Over the last few years, President Bush has entered the chambers with a broad focus, directing winks, smiles, and nudges towards particular people. If that changes this year; if he enters with head down, or with a more determined, more grim countenance, it signals he is feeling the heat. If he continues that former pattern, we can understand he is ignoring the heat.

The Speech: Which aspect of his persona will he present? Will it be the "have gun, will travel" cop of the world we saw in 2003? Will it be the nervous and confused boy we saw in the first debate of 2004? Or will it be the beset-with-worry stern- faced town father of recent press conferences?

Watch for hypervigilance in the eyes, excessive grimaces, the furrowed brow that contrasts with the attempted smile, the lip-licking that signifies nervousness, the auditory attending that causes people to think he is being fed his speech through an earpiece (as opposed to the visual scanning that people who read their speeches on a monitor often display)- all of these indicate a man under pressure and in psychic danger.

Also, be aware of his phrasing. Does he breathe at the appropriate points within the flow of the words or is the language broken up in choppy and strange ways? If it is the latter, it is possible he memorized or is being fed the speech in segments that do not require him to actually understand what he is saying. If it is the former, he worked hard on the speech, and stands behind his words.

The Exit: If he lingers on the way out, shaking hands and holding the upper arms of key supporters as he winks and smiles at them and others, he feels relaxed and relieved. If he hastens out abruptly, he is not so sure of how well he performed.

Often, he looks up at Laura Bush as if to check with her as to how he did. At such moments it is easy to see the current nature of their relationship, which is usually quite supportive.

It's not often you get to hear the truth, and when you do, you need to treasure it and spread the word. We write the truth everyday (and when we’re wrong, we admit it). This is rare, so support us: subscribe today.

I hope you enjoyed this study lesson as much as I did!

Listen, he not a good President, that may be true. But he is your President and he is not going anywhere so you might as well get used to it and put all your energy to usefull use. Why don't you explain how the Presidnet of Iran is planning to nuke the world and how we need to stop that. Why don't you explain how Syria has WMD and that more people are living in poverty now than in any other time.

You have great determination. Point it in a useful direction than badmouthing our pres. Sure he is dumb and many other things but there are more improtant things to worry about than him. You might as well support him and oppose our enemies, axtremist terrorists who want us dead.

I didn't want to argue, but this guy said he wanted my family exterminated. I had to reply.

Angry out with PC and in with sensitivity.....

you've got a great imagination. So, I've edited my post so as to not offend you with your imagined comments (from me) and to satisfy 7mmag6's post and PM to me asking for my sensitiveity to you.

I don't care about being PC. That is not what I was upset about. If anybody tells me that it is ok to destroy Isreal then I'm gonna come out swinging because that is my heritage and my family's residence. If you don't understand that then, well, what is there to do. You are intitled to your own views and this is a free world so you can say whatever you want, but there is a line that everyone has and when you cross that line, that when the gloves come off. I'm sure you have a nerve that sets you off. Probobly saying your family should be exterminated would set you off a tad, huh

It wouldn't be hard to bash Florida, but at least I have decency to control myself because I know there are people who don't want to hear that kind of stuff. That stuff is better dicussed with your buddies because if I went around bashing some states or countries I know people are gonna get mad. Did you really think that nobody would care that you said that Isreal deserves to be wiped out??
