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?
