The quotes below are paraphrased from Virginia Senator Jim Webb's response to George W Bush's State of the Union address.  If you're looking for a little inspiration, Webb pretty much lays out why democrats are democrats.

— 

This is the seventh time the President has mentioned energy independence in the State of the Union message but for the first time this exchange is taking place in a congress led by the democratic party.

Webb points out how we see the health of our economy is different.  Prosperity and corporate profits are high.  The average CEO makes 400 times what their average worker makes.  Good American jobs are being sent overseas.  Our middle class is losing its place at the table.

The house just passed the minimum wage increase.  We've established a tone that will get things done.

This country has patiently endured this war for nearly 4 years.

His father served in the military.  Webb served as a marine and his 24 year old son is serving as an infantryman in Iraq now.  

Sound judgment is one of the few things our servicemen ask of their political leaders.

Bush disregarded warnings from many leaders in national security and in our military.  We have lost opportunities to defeat the terrorists.  The majority of our nation, our military and our congress does not support the war in Iraq.
