Not the State of the Union

Via Peevish:

In a perverse sort of way, it was an impressive performance. In thirty-five minutes, he managed to commit nearly every verbal “mistake” that served him so well during the campaign.

Bush equivocated, temporized, oversimplified, engaged in self-delusion, indulged in verbal flights of fancy and, when necessary, uttered statements absolutely devoid of any discernible fact.

Sounds like the State of the Union to me.
