The body language of democrats at the state of the union address tells us a lot about what they think and what their plans are.

EXCERPT
"First we must balance the federal budget," Bush said.
Pelosi shot to her feet, followed slowly by Cheney.
"We can do so without raising taxes," Bush continued.
Cheney leapt up. Pelosi started to stand, then reconsidered and sat down.
SNIP
Bush called for the United States "to succeed in Iraq." Cheney again stood and clapped. Pelosi wiped her lips and remained seated, as did most Democrats
They are dead set on seeing that we do not succeed in Iraq and they fully intend to raise taxes.

OK, so i wasn't the only person who noticed those things.

Three thousand good troops dead since he did his little "mission accomplished" strut on a carrier deck in a borrowed flight suit. More of that "success" is not what's wanted.
Bush says he's responsible for messing up in Iraq. Now, he says if we just mess up a little harder, we'll be successful. He had his chance. -
Galatian,
When most of the liberals were voting to send my fellow soldiers into harms way, I was against it. Your liberal leaders gave the votes necessary to go in . . . THEY WERE COWARDS THEN.
Then liberals were campaigning for war and being used by saddam as guards on their weapons systems. Now the liberals are complaining . . .
Ya'll can complain all ya' want AFTER YOU BRING MY TROOPS HOME WITH A WIN.
Now all I ask is that liberals show courage like our soldiers in the field - let us finish this and finish it right.
Quit the vacillation and the resulting loss of Americans - and support our troops so that you do not make the next Vietnam that you and your fellow liberals want to make.
I am being convinced that liberals are only happy when they have messed everything up so bad that lots of Americans soldiers are dying so that liberals can feel that they have a cause.

It's time to put a stop to his madness. Commanding the military is not one of his greatest talents. -

Barbarian on the democrats sitting when Bush proposes more of the same in Iraq.
So did about 70% of Americans. They've already seen what Bush calls success in Iraq.

I was on the phone when it first started so had the sound down on the TV. It looked like a Catholic service with all the up and down.
