A forgettable State of the Union speech, overall. No human-animal hybrids, or references to steroids. Overall, actually, quite a snoozer.

The one bright spot that I felt occurred afterward, with the Democratic response. For the first time in years, I felt like the Dems hit back hard and strong. Senator Webb's closing statement that if Bush didn't lead, that "we" would, was great. I'm glad that others agree with me.
