Firstly I must say I was impressed with this State of the Union address.
It was mainly comprised of Social Security reform, and Iraq. It was a forgone conclusion that Bush would re-affirm and prove to the American public that going into Iraq was the right thing to do. Shadows of "who's next" were in there though. Syria? Iran? Likely whichever one is more profitable.
Social Security Reform is always touchy. I think I heard him say that he was going to cancel over 150 social programs that aren't effective. But none of them in particular were named.
I still think the USA could use a public health care program. However Bush seemed to stray from the subject apart from saying that the current system should be made more affordable, for more people.
