Bush, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"Keeping America competitive requires affordable energy. Here we have a serious problem: America is addicted to oil, which is often imported from unstable parts of the world.  The best way to break this addiction is through technology. Since 2001, we have spent nearly 10 billion dollars to develop cleaner, cheaper, more reliable alternative energy sources - and we are on the threshold of incredible advances.  So tonight, I announce the Advanced Energy Initiative - a 22-percent increase in clean-energy research at the Department of Energy, to push for breakthroughs in two vital areas. To change how we power our homes and offices, we will invest more in zero-emission coal-fired plants; revolutionary solar and wind technologies; and clean, safe nuclear energy.\"\u003cbr/\u003e4. Cutaway\u003cbr/\u003e5. SOUNDBITE: (English) George W. Bush, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"We must also change how we power our automobiles.

SOUNDBITE: (English) George W. Bush, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"I have authorised a terrorist surveillance program to aggressively pursue the international communications of suspected al-Qaida operatives and affiliates to and from America.  Previous presidents have used the same constitutional authority I have - and Federal courts have approved the use of that authority. Appropriate Members of Congress have been kept informed. This terrorist surveillance program has helped prevent terrorist attacks. It remains essential to the security of America. If there are people inside our country who are talking with al-Qaida, we want to know about it - because we will not sit back and wait to be hit again.\"\u003cbr/\u003e8. Cutaway\u003cbr/\u003e9. SOUNDBITE: (English) George W. Bush, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"Keeping America competitive requires us to open more markets for all that Americans make and grow. One out of every five factory jobs in America is related to global trade, and we want people everywhere to buy American. With open markets and a level playing field, no one can out-produce or out-compete the American worker. \"\u003cbr/\u003e10. Various cutaways\u003cbr/\u003e11. SOUNDBITE: (English) George W. Bush, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"For all Americans, we must confront the rising cost of care, strengthen the doctor-patient relationship, and help people afford the insurance coverage they need. We will make wider use of electronic records and other health information technology, to help control costs and reduce dangerous medical errors. \" \u003cbr/\u003e12. Various cutaways\u003cbr/\u003e13. SOUNDBITE: (English) George W. Bush, US President:\u003cbr/\u003e\"A hopeful society has institutions of science and medicine that do not cut ethical corners, and that recognise the matchless value of every life. Tonight I ask you to pass legislation to prohibit the most egregious abuses of medical research; human cloning in all its forms, creating or implanting embryos for experiments, creating human-animal hybrids, and buying, selling, or patenting human embryos. Human life is a gift from our creator, and that gift should never be discarded, devalued, or put up for sale.\"\u003cbr/\u003e14. Various shots of President Bush after his speech ends\u003cbr/\u003eRichmond, Virginia \u003cbr/\u003e15. SOUNDBITE: (English) Tim Kaine, Virginia Governor (Democrat):\u003cbr/\u003e\"Our faith and values teach us that there's no higher calling than serving others. Our federal government should serve the American people. But that mission is frustrated by this administrations poor choices and bad management. Families in the Gulf Coast see that as they wait to rebuild their lives, Americans who lose their jobs see it as they look to rebuild their careers, and our soldiers in Iraq see that as they try to rebuild the nation. As Americans we do great things when we work together, some of our leaders in Washington seem to have forgotten that.\"\u003cbr/\u003e16. Wide shot of Kaine \u003cbr/\u003eA politically weakened President George W. Bush addressed his constituency on Tuesday night. \u003cbr/\u003eWith Congress facing midterm elections in November, there was a partisan mood in the chamber, with minority Democrats cheering when Bush noted that Congress did not act on his main proposal in last year's speech, overhauling the Social Security pension system.\u003cbr/\u003eBush declared that the \"the state of our union is strong\" despite Americans' anxieties about the war in Iraq, the economy, and rising energy prices which throwing a cloud over the economy and pinching Americans' pocketbooks.\u003cbr/\u003eFacing budget deficits that may approach or exceed $400 billion (euro330 billion) this year, Bush had no room for expensive initiatives, like last year's Social Security plan.\u003cbr/\u003eBush said the United States needed to strengthen its competitiveness in the global economy. \u003cbr/\u003eThree years from leaving office, Bush went before the nation as a politically weakened president after the toughest year of his administration.\u003cbr/\u003eWith Americans anxious about the economy, weary of the Iraq war and unhappy about the administration's response to Hurricane Katrina, Bush's job approval rating is in the high 30s to low 40s.\u003cbr/\u003eAs he has in every State of the Union address to some extent, Bush said the United States must curb its reliance on foreign oil imports. \u003cbr/\u003eHe called for more research on batteries for hybrid and electric cars and work on alternative fuels to produce ethanol from wood chips, stalks or switch grass.\u003cbr/\u003eVirginia Governor Timothy M. Kaine, delivering the response for the Democrats, scolded Bush on the soaring national debt, the frustrated effort to rebuild the hurricane-battered Gulf Coast, and other issues. \u003cbr/\u003eBush called on Congress to renew the controversial Patriot Act, a law which grants the government broad powers of surveillance to counter terrorism.\u003cbr/\u003eThe House of Representatives is set to vote on Wednesday on extending the law until March 10 rather than let it expire on Friday. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Senate was expected to follow before the deadline.\u003cbr/\u003eOriginally passed five weeks after the September 11, 2001 terror attacks, the Patriot Act was originally due to expire December 31.\u003cbr/\u003eOn another key domestic issue, Bush proposed new tax incentives to encourage Americans to save for health care needs. \u003cbr/\u003eHealth care is a priority for both parties, particularly since nearly 46 million Americans lack insurance.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description'
