Those sitting with the First Lady this year include a full size cardbord statuette of dead, unarmed teenager Michael Brown from
Ferguson, MO and his bereaved father, Michael Sr., wearing a custom made "Gone To Soon" T-Shirt to honor Michael's untimely departure.
In Michael Jr.'s memory, authentic copies of Michael Sr.'s T-Shirt signed by the First Lady will be available for sale at all entrances to the
Capitol building for the very reasonable price of only $279.95.

Absolutely disgusting! Who wants to watch a bunch of RINO republicans fawning over the most notorious corrupt, lying POTUS in American history? Not in my house.

There is nothing that requires the president to give the SOTU in person verbally. Why can’t we go back to the good ole’ days where they just delivered a written report to congress instead of all the political theater? (Rhetorical question)
