Live-blogging the 2006 State of the Union address

Later today, I'll be live-blogging it. Well, actually, I'll try to find a disembargoed copy and quickly summarize it. Then, I'll watch an old Alf episode.

I predict that Bush's SOTU will include the following or very close equivalents:

"we need comprehensive reform of our broken immigration system"

"good-hearted people doing jobs Americans won't do"

"match willing workers with willing employers"

There's a roundup of his past mentions of "guest" worker schemes here. They think he'll concentrate on the border security bits and leave out the "willing workers" bits. Since Bush already has this memorized, I think he'll include them. We shall see.

UPDATE: Here my SOTU discussion.
