time.com— A look at what President Bush said in his final State of the Union Address delivered Monday night. Each word is scaled in proportion to the number of times it was used. Roll over a word for its frequency.

sad state of affairs when Iraq is mentioned more times than children... or education....or economy..or freedom.. was this the state of the union or the state of oil...?
I couldn't think of a more shallow analysis of the speech. This word counting bulls**t is just sensationalism, and as usual, the digg community slobbers all over it. Here's a hint: if you want to analyze the speech, actually read it.
"Iraq"=39"Fight"=14"al-Qaeda"=11..."Peace"=8"Dignity"=3"Truth"=0"Honesty"=0"Abolish"=0"Downsize"=0"Corruption"=0Yknow...in a very strange and subtle way, you can see based on this that Bush really isn't lying to us (except maybe the 8 times he used the word "peace"). He knew what he wanted to do with his administration, and he's dangling it right in front of us. This address seems to me like a victory speech attesting to the fact that he has successfully conned the American people. Why hasn't anyone seen through this kind of s**t?
You people are lame. I could take any person of importance and do the same... they would all look like idiots. Oh, also, what are the major concerns of the nations.... exactly what he focused on. WAR and the ECONOMY. Get a life lamewads... you are pathetic. Let's not use our brains anymore because we are so anti-bush. Anything opposing him is good? So, Chavez is good, so Terrorists are good and so on. GROW UP! Think for yourselves.
Serious about what....the fact that when an individual claims someone lied they should be able to produce concrete evidence of those lies? Is that so absurd to you?

Apparently he didn't say "9/11" even once?

You really can NOT be serious!

SparkyMaGee should have had hundreds of diggs for telling the truth. Ignoring the deficit will not make it go away!
