Well, as the author of the thread, I can see how you beat me to do it. I saw the title, quickly got my keyboard on the ready, was about to text "What highlights?" and as I stared up onto the monitor, I was amazed at how I managed to post my comments telepathically. :-)

Well I did learn one thing: He wants to give constitutional rights to Islamic terrorists and take away the constitutional rights of US citizens which he freely admitted to last night.

He said he wanted to close Gitmo so we “don’t violate our constitutional principles” then in the same breath says he is going bypass congress when it comes to banning guns.

So in other words, Islamo terrorists get constitutional rights, but not the American citizen.

I'm the one who broke the Al Gore invented the internet story right on this forum.

And Al has been sending you flowers monthly ever since.

Really? Highlights?

Surely you jest.

Except if you’re an AP reporter.

Did anyone audibly break wind during Emperor 0dinga’s oration?

That would be the highlight.

Of course there are highlights we can reflect on...

1. It is over.

2. Being one day closer to the end of the term for this regime.

3. Many here have freshly arranged sock drawers.

That gong show worthy performance on 1/28 (the pep rally known as the SOTU), was an effort to salvage what remains of the worst and most dangerous administration in the history of this country.

I literally lost track of the number of bald-faced lies this miscreant told in what I pray will turn out to be a miserably failed attempt to convince enough of the no/low information crowd to vote D in the 2014 mid-terms. (Even Eric Bolling Tweeted that “My BS meter broke”).

Newsflash: With the exception of his comments about bypassing the Constitution and congress, OBAMA DIDN'T MEAN A WORD OF IT. HE WAS LYING. I could tell because his lips were moving. And if enough of the no/low info idiots fall for it, we're in for a very bad 2 years and, if Hitlery succeeds, well beyond.

The America we seasoned seniors knew growing up will be gone forever.
