Suggestions for the GOP in the SOTU
Vanity

Posted on 01/28/2014 12:18:22 PM PST by budj

Various radio commentators have suggested what the GOP should do tonight to liven up the SOTU.

How about we help them with some more. Here's mine:

I remember Harry Chapin's concerts; he'd sing "30,000 lbs of Bananas" and end with the audience shouting "It sucks, Harry!"

Maybe the GOP could just shout "It sucks, Barry!"

Invite DeSouza to attend. Invite the surviving relatives of the Benghazi debacle. Invite a regular Joe that lost his health insurance because of 0-care.
Invite anyone harmed by the dictator.

Those who do watch will also have to endure the sight of captive Republicans sitting there being trashed and humiliated. And sometimes even appalauding their tormentor.

Go, but laugh out loud, long and hard, at every ridiculous thing that’s said (there will be plenty of wacky material to work with).

An excellent suggestion but one that Republicans are too obtuse to appreciate.

Hahaha. I won’t watch but will comment here.
Would like to see Sarah’s response though.
Warm enough?
My niece and her husband just went up to Chi town
to move some of her fathers household goods back
Here to Ga. we tried to tell her about conditions
up north as we used to live there but she knows
everything so I hope they don’t have trouble.

The Annual President’s Jack-in-the-Box Speech is upon us!

Keep your eyes on Nancy Pelosi, the Human Pogostick.

If POTUS chooses to present the SOTU in person to congress, as opposed to a written report, why should congress provide him the benfit of any consideration of reverence?

POTUS could just send a written SOTU and avoid the theatrics. If POTUS chooses the theatrics, then POTUS should suffer the considerations.

The current “reverence” and “polite consideration” of the POTUS in the SOTU smacks of imperialism and...REALLY...needs to be eliminated.

I believe I read that the father of one of the Seals
is going to be there. Could be interesting, but
decorum will probably out.

The word lie should be a GOP talking point.

************
The GOP is in a very target rich environment. Obama has given them a gold mine of talking points replete with lies, contradictions, and pathetic failures. The problem is the GOP discards all the nuggets and keeps the tailings.

-13 this morning; it’s warmed UP to ZERO now. Heat Wave!

Most of our state has been closed for the past two days; I’m self-entertaining and am enjoying a few days away from work.

No water this morning, but LUCKILY the pressure tank just needed to be re-booted; it must’ve been having problems with the cold. That was VERY LUCKY! :)

My chickens are doing fine; no frost bite on their combs or feet. They have a coop, so they’re all snuggled up for warms. The cat actually slept with the dogs last night - she’s not done that in all of her 14 years, LOL!

I’m ready for SPRING! :)

Congressman Joe Wilson should read the speech in advance, note each of the really obvious lies in it (there’s bound to be dozens), and at each one, stand up and shout “You still lie, sir!”

And each time he does it, the entire Republican contingent should stand, clap, and yell “Hear, Hear!”

Then let’s see if he gets censured this time around, or is considered the equivalent of the child who said the Emperor was wearing no clothes.

During the aftermath, Wilson and the rest of the GOP will be able to dissect each and every lie as they’re interviewed over and over by a seething mainstream press corpse (spelling error intended.)

Should they all take group selfies rather than paying attention?

I’ve got some chickens but they don’t have a coop.
They used to roost in the rafters of my blacksmith
shop but I closed it in for the winter so now they
just roost in the tree next to my house.

They are 0bama’s bitches and he knows it. He and Jarrett will be high-5ing at the after party over how he trashed them and they sat there and took it.

If the R side had any stones they would A turn their back on the traitor as he enters and b- If Dear Leader starts his prevarications and accusations (especially when he hints I will do things with or without you) walk out en masse. But knowing who the players are will never happen
