HEADLINE: REP. LUCAS APPRECIATES BUSH FOR GIVING POSITIVE MESSAGE OF HOPE TO AMERICANS

DATELINE: WASHINGTON

BODY:
"Rep. Frank Lucas made the following statement regarding President Bush's State of the Union address," the office of Rep. Lucas said in a press release.

The verbatim text of the release also said:

"With the clarity that has come to mark his style, the President has presented a clear and ambitious blueprint for the direction of our country."

"The American people want their president to shoot straight with them, and that's just what President Bush did. He laid out the threats that still loom on the war on terror, and the work that remains on the economic front."

"But Bush also gave the American people a positive, forward-looking message of hope for not just the year ahead, but future generations."

"I was especially pleased with Bush's call for fiscal restraint, his proposal to bring together America's community colleges and the industries that lack sufficient workers, and his call to protect the sanctity of marriage."

"The President's speech has shown us he doesn't just speak like we do in Oklahoma, he believes in the same values we hold dear in our state."
