On the State of the Union

I missed it last night. Does it really matter? Let's see if I can summarize:
"Blah blah war on terror."
"Blah blah wiretapping al-Qaeda."
"Blah blah oil."
"Blah science!"
"Blah blah bipartisanship."
"Blah blah look how great I am."

And the Dem response?
"Blah blah we don't care, we have no policy proposals anyway."
"Blah blah what 06 election?"
"Blah blah pander to the base."

Am I wrong?
