State of the Union…

February 1, 2008

George W. Bush’s State of the Union speech was uncommonly defiant. Most presidents use their  last State of the  Union to list their achievements, but aides told Bush the speech needed  to be more than 5 minutes long.” 

On Media Day a female television reporter proposed marriage to Tom Brady.  He graciously declined, saying he was “a one woman man.”  He then excused himself, saying he needed to call the mother of his baby before he went home to his girlfriend.

John McCain reiterated this week that he is against torture.  In fact, he says one of his first acts as president will be to limit the length of the Super Bowl pre-game show.

Super Bowl commercials go for over 2 million – roughly the cost of one A-Rod at bat.  Or, last year, one Roger Clemens inning.

Hillary Clinton was very gracious to Barack Obama in tonight’s debate.  Of course, this week, despite their differences, he’s probably done less damage to her campaign than Bill.
