Subject: RE: BS: State of the Union
There are some of you who would disagree with this President no matter what he said. I wonder why you even bothered to watch his speech. If you already made up your mind beforehand, perhaps your time would have been better spent on creative pursuits.

There are others of you who disagree with this President just because your friends do. And because you don't have enough brains to understand why you disagree with him, you find inconsequential personal things to nitpick. When all you can say is "boy isn't that Bush stupid" it doesn't reflect very well on your own level of intelligence.

"Nuclear" is an EXTREMELY commonly mispronounced word. So are words like "cavalry" and "jewelry." All of you who pronounce everything perfectly, raise your hand.

That's what I thought.

If you want to debate the issues, by all means, debate the issues. The ISSUES. And debate them with The Facts. It's the issues that are important. Sometimes the messenger isn't such a great speaker. (Remember a guy named Moses?) Public speaking is a talent, and not everyone has it, but that shouldn't diminish the importance of the message.
