My whole point is that you can get millions of Americans to read something on engadget and you can only get a few hundred who have any passion for government.

I saw the talking heads on Boston's channel 7 this morning reading a line about "Wall Street's reaction to the president's speech". Well I just could not have even read the line while keeping a straight face.

"Democrat Party" always has been a calculated slur, but I really don't mind, because it also serves to identify enemies of the Democratic party, even those who pretend to be part of it.

A group composed of veterans of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq criticized President Bush for "ignoring" America's 1.6 million new veterans in Tuesday's State of the Union speech.

"Tonight President Bush once again failed to demonstrate a real commitment to the 1.6 million new American veterans who have been created under his watch," Paul Rieckhoff, the executive director of IAVA: Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, said in a press release sent to RAW STORY. "For the second year in a row, the President in his State of the Union address chose to mention the troops only as a prop for his failing policies and ignored the nation's new veterans entirely."

President Bush says the missing "-ic" in the State of the Union address was nothing more than an oversight.

Near the beginning of the speech last week, Bush congratulated "the Democrat majority" for its electoral victory, using a long-standing Republican formulation seen by many Democrats as a calculated insult. Some liberal bloggers and party strategists saw the president's omission of the last two letters of the party's proper name, Democratic, as a sign of insincerity in preaching bipartisanship.

Nothing of the sort, Bush said in an interview yesterday with National Public Radio's Juan Williams. [Transcript]

"That was an oversight," said Bush, who frequently uses the formulation. "I mean, I'm not trying to needle. Look, I went into the hall saying we can work together, and I was very sincere about it. I didn't even know I did it."

For now, Democrats are standing down.

Brendan Daly, spokesman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), said, "We certainly take the president at his word." The normally garrulous Jim Manley, spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.), said he had no comment.
