This rite of custom brings us together at a defining hour – when decisions are hard and courage is tested. We enter the year 2007 with large endeavors underway, and others that are ours to begin. In all of this, much is asked of us. We must have the will to face difficult challenges and determined enemies – and the wisdom to face them together.

George Bush, State of the Union January 23, 2007

He shall from time to time give to the Congress information of the state of the union, and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in case of disagreement between them, with respect to the time of adjournment, he may adjourn them to such time as he shall think proper; he shall receive ambassadors and other public ministers; he shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed, and shall commission all the officers of the United States.

Article 2, section 3, The United States Constitution


Such is the man's arrogance, he thinks he's performing a courtesy call rather than following the law.

Flawed logic follows the man like a tail following a dog, it's an inevitability. Like a puppy though, he keeps peering around in astonishment that this flawed logic is still behind him.

One wonders what the remaining two years of this man's presidency holds for the human race. His stubbornness has a potential to cause damage on a biblical or apocalyptic scale. His unwillingness to admit mistakes could lead to the extinction of the human race.
