Where Ideas Come To Die
State of Disunion
This video of the State of the Union makes no sense.
- Bush: Key provisions of The PATRIOT Act are set to expire next year.
- <pause then begin a smattering of applause>
- Bush: The terrorist threat...<continued applause>...the terrorist threat will not expire on that schedule.
- <begin cheers, loud applause and a standing ovation>
First applause I can get, some government officials dislike The PATRIOT Act. The second one perplexes me. Are they cheering terrorism?
