Perhaps Barry will be nominated for a Grammy for his SOTU speech? (blah!)

Taking credit for oil and natural gas had to be the biggest lie.

That’s insane. Afghanistan gives us two choices. Stay forever in a meatgrinder, or leave and watch it remain a moslem corrupt evil hellhole.

Its a fantasy that staying another month, year, or decade will ever make them into a human nation. Continuing to fight to give past casualties “meaning” is the very worst reason for staying I can imagine.

To be fair, Obama’s speech, if spoken continuously, would have been much shorter without Clapapalooza going on constantly. I hate the constant interruptions for clapping. It turns the State of the Union into a pep rally.

Amen. I have sat thru speech that lasted a hour or more in person, that could have been easily done in 20 minutes, tops(based on a transcript published later). I left the room not having a clue what they said.

He might actually be darker than the freaky lady that was an tanning addict and she actually looked like she was in black face from excessive tanning.

I’m watching Justified. Even Boyd Crowder is easier on the eyes than the Commander in Thief.

IRAs retitled to MyRA so the gov’t can access, appropriate and confiscate them within the fine print at the bottom, and pay us all a pittance monthly stipend ... oh, you didn’t get that last page? Too bad, worker.
