The White House is promising President Barack Obama will deliver a "non-traditional" State of the Union address next month, eschewing the standard litany of policy proposals for a broader discussion on the challenges facing the country.

The format reflects the legislative reality for Obama's final year in office.

Hussein is NOT an American (in many ways).

Why would his SOTU be traditional in any way? Muzzie ValJar is still in charge.

I doubt many are in the mood for his lecturing and condescending.

He needs to take the next year making a worldwide apology tour for all of the problems he has created during his two terms.

The traditional format of the State of the Union is a written report sent by courier to Congress.

No serious person cares what Obama has to say. About anything.

I wonder how a guy as arrogant and petulant as Obama will handle having to attend the inaugeration of his successor.
I was surprised Clinton made it through... but Obama I just can’t picture him being able to do it.

Then again maybe it’s easier to set aside the ego when you know you’ve conducted the biggest robbery in world history.

Given that this is Imam Obama we’re talking about, it’ll probably be a Hate Of The Union speech.
