One year ago, President George W. Bush delivered the 2006 State of the Union Address. In typical fashion, it was nothing but rhetoric and platitudes. It was rubbish. See for yourself.

Here is an excerpt of what Bush said on January 31, 2006:


"I am confident in our plan for victory. I am confident in the will of the Iraqi people. I am confident in the skill and spirit of our military. Fellow citizens, we are in this fight to win, and we are winning.

(APPLAUSE)

The road of victory is the road that will take our troops home.

As we make progress on the ground and Iraqi forces increasingly take the lead, we should be able to further decrease our troop levels. But those decisions will be made by our military commanders, not by politicians in Washington, D.C.

(APPLAUSE)

Our coalition has learned from our experience in Iraq. We have adjusted our military tactics and changed our approach to reconstruction.

Along the way, we have benefited from responsible criticism and counsel offered by members of Congress of both parties.

In the coming year, I will continue to reach out and seek your good advice. Yet there is a difference between responsible criticism that aims for success and defeatism that refuses to acknowledge anything but failure.

(APPLAUSE)

(Bush was full of crap in 2006 - He is still full of crap in 2007)
