2. Bush Speaks Out of Both Sides of Mouth at Same Time!

Most politicians speak out of both sides of their mouth, but George W. Bush has actually accomplished this feat simultaneously - twice in one speech!

In his State of the Union address, he urged us to close our border to drug dealers and terrorists, while at the same time opening them to illegal aliens in his "guest worker" program.

Then he said he doesn't want marriage defined by activist judges, but he does want a Federal amendment that would give the Fedgov the power to define marriage! That was actually triple-talk because just the other day he said because we had DOMA, we didn't need an amendment after all ( #76 ). I thought John Kerry was the flip-flopper? If Bush is already hitting on triple-flips, he will easily win the gold medal in ice dancing in next year's winter Olympics.

THE STATE OF THE UNION

Bush urges: Close border to drug dealers, terrorists

President also pushes guest-worker plan

In his first State of the Union speech of his second term, President Bush tonight urged Congress to make reforms on a wide variety of issues – from Social Security and the federal tax code, to immigration policy designed to stop "chaos at our border."

"We should not be content with laws that punish hardworking people who want only to provide for their families, and deny businesses willing workers, and invite chaos at our border," Bush told the nation. "It is time for an immigration policy that permits temporary guest workers to fill jobs Americans will not take, that rejects amnesty, that tells us who is entering and leaving our country, and that closes the border to drug dealers and terrorists."

The president, however, offered no specifics on how he planned to prevent drug dealers and terrorists from entering the country illegally.

TG: He can't offer any specifics, because such a thing is impossible. If you open the borders wide, the thugs get in. It's like trying to pass gun restrictions and hoping they only affect criminals.

He said he would listen to anyone who has a good idea to offer.

Bush reiterated his support for a constitutional amendment to protect the institution of marriage, saying it was for the good of families, children, and society. "Because marriage is a sacred institution and the foundation of society, it should not be redefined by activist judges," he said.
