I saw little parts. You hear screaming and cheering in the smallish crowd, then they show faces. Grim, not cheering and barely clapping.

I think they blended a sound track for excitement into the broadcast.

I would like to see it. I have a Justice fetish. But I bet something would happen like I describe: instead of being fair, like the Tour de France, they will retroactively allow him to stay on as the president between Bush II and Trump.

He couldn’t have been a citizen or a decent one at least if he attended Oxy as a foreign student. Remember that foreign students typically pay MORE tuition, and it is their country who ponies up. As a great son of Indonesia, no doubt they paid his way. But it means, citizen or not, that young Barry had to check the box marked NO to the question, which they asked and swore him to truth, Are you an American citizen? And this person has been our President for 8 years.

It was a disgusting and typical lying speech of his.

I would like to wish I’d never hear another, but the way this character loves the limelight, I doubt it.

Another speech that I’ll miss due to the more important task of rearranging my sock drawer.

“You, the people, kept me honest, and made me a better man and a better President.”

He stayed honest? He ever was honest?

If he isn’t addressing Congress how can it be a state of the Onion speech?

Nah, I’ve honestly never liked it. Too clipped, arrogant and preachy.

Of course he did. He’s always been a Muslim sympathizer. Hannity and Rush warned us before he even got elected the first time. But preaching to the choir when the rest of the congregation is deaf sadly doesn’t do any good.

I watched the South Korean film "The Age of Shadows" and read Free Republic while listening to Bernard Herrmann's outstanding films core "North by Northwest", and Joe Kraemer's rousing film score to "Mission Impossible, Rogue Nation".

Man I love SPOTIFY's premium high resolution, streaming service.

Wouldn't be caught dead watching/listening to the narcissistic liar and chief, Obomination... Good riddance!

I enjoyed your detailed and comprehensive analysis of Obama’s 8 years. I am going to share something I heard today and my thoughts about what will happen in the future. You can tell me if you agree with my analysis. I was reading a story about the Trump/Putin relationship. The writer quoted some person saying that they had heard a high level Russian say Trump is Putin’s bixxx except the Russian word used was much worse. The article went onto speculate that Trump may have been secretly photographed in compromising sexual or other acts, which has enabled Putin to blackmail him.

So I asked myself, what is Putin really after that Trump can give him. The answer is high oil prices and a safe warm water port. As Secretary of State, Tillerson can work to arrange the situation favorably for Russia to maintain it’s warm water port in Syria. Regarding oil, Tillerson can probably do well in Cabinet meetings with energy and environment picks.

I suspect the Drill Baby Drill people are going to be disappointed. Cutting back on production will push prices higher which will make a lot of the people who voted for Trump quite unhappy and ultimately poorer. On the other hand they could do more drilling and keep prices down. This will not make Putin happy but will make the voting masses happy. It would also push a lot of small oil producers to economic failure and enable the majors to snap them us as a bargain.

If Tillerson sells all his Exxon shares, he will be free to handle matters however Trump asks him to. The big question is how subservient to Putin’s wishes will Trump be?

I have wondered about the 57 state thing ever since I read the nasty comments about it here a FR. Actually in addition to the 50 states, there are 7 other populated entities which are part of the US as territories or other designations. Some that I remember are Washington DC, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, American Samoa and others.

That’s only if you take that dead white guy thing, the Constitution, seriously.

Midway through it all, my video player froze up, so I was spared the rest of it.

If you’re so enamored with the big eared dolt, then go ahead and listen to him.
But don’t demand others listen to the vacuous creep.
That flappy faggot can’t be gone fast enough.
