***THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD***

Posted on 02/15/2013 5:21:00 AM PST by Lucky9teen

@JayLeno At the #SOTU tonight, when the President walked into the chamber, instead of ‘Hail to the Chief’ they played ‘Hey Big Spender.’

@JimGaffigan That was the most one-sided debate I’ve ever seen. #SOTU

@Bez "I am SO getting laid tonight" -Obama's speechwriter

@sixfoot6 Biden always looks like he's pridefully watching his son play quarterback. Boehner always looks embarrassed by his son at a ballet recital.

@JillMorris I feel like I'm watching an ad for ADD medication when I look at Biden. #SOTU


@JonasPolsky Saturday Night Live cold openings are pretty long, but this is ridiculous. #SOTU

@m_swartz Also as serious as this all is just imagine a bunch of orangutans hooting and clapping at each other and that's basically government.

@TheDweck Obama gives SOTU. Republicans respond STFU.

@biloon Somebody just said "Oh, Yeah" in the audience. Is the Kool-Aid Man in attendance? #SOTU

@SarahThyre I bet if you grated Boehner's cheekbones onto French toast it would be delicious. #SOTU #protein

@ToeKneeSam Obama looks orange on my television, Boehner looks red, and Biden looks confused. #sotu

@JonasPolsky John Boehner has been warned, whenever he gets the impulse to applaud or smile, one of his children is stabbed with a rusty syringe. #SOTU

@Dave_Horwitz The State Of The Union should be retitled, "Hey, You Know What Would Be Cool?"

@sucittaM If Biden's mic was on you would have heard him drop seventeen F-bombs so far. #SOTU

@dansinker Boehner's gone from deep orange to a rich Corinthian leather in a year.

@gabedelahaye John Boehner and Joe Biden clearly go to separate tanning salons with competing formulas. #SOTU

@BorowitzReport Fox News: Obama Speech an Enormous Failure #SOTU

@sucittaM State of the Union prediction: Obama walks up, clears throat, says "Shit cray", drops the mic and walks off.


@ChaseMit The Republican response to the State of the Union is just seven minutes of Ted Nugent firing an AK-47 into a buffalo carcass. #SOTU

@DamienFahey The State of the Union should just be an hour and a half of a guy crying in his car outside of an Arby's.

@ChaseMit John Boehner is glaring at Barack Obama like he just said there are no more beds available at Planet Tan. #SOTU

@BillMc7 Man, I can hardly wait for none of this to get done.

@alexblagg Biden and Boehner's ties should team up to fight crime in '80s Miami.

@DamienFahey I don't have the sound up on my TV, but Joe Biden just stood and applauded, so I assume Obama just gave America his BangBus password.

@ChaseMit A disappointed Joe Biden looks down at his handful of beads and realizes he came to the wrong place tonight. #SOTU

@louisvirtel Seems cruel of Biden to match lavender glasses and a tie with no promise of performing "Bennie and the Jets." #SOTU

@alexblagg When's Obama gonna get to the part where he looks directly into the camera and goes, "But seriously: we've got to get rid of Chris Brown"?

@ronradu Biden keeps putting on his glasses and looking down to check his Twitter feed

@EJDionne Good line ‏RT @grossdm You've heard of arch-conservatives? Rubio is a parched-conservative. #sotu

@BloombergView This speech will forever be known as The Water Break Address | http://bloom.bg/sotu #sotu

@AmandaMarcotte That water bottle gif will stand in for people saying "awkward!" for at least a year. #sotu

@barrylyga That moment where Rubio dodges off-camera for water is gonna live on YouTube forever. And I bet Poland Spring is PSYCHED for the plug. #sotu

@BloombergView .@paulaEdwyer: Can't wait for the SNL skit showing Rubio soaking his head under the tap #sotu

@smotus Rubio: Ask not what your country... OH GOD I'M THIRSTY #sotu

@kthalps Rubio is right. Government can't solve every problem. Namely, dry-mouth. #sotu #fb

@AmandaMarcotte Has anyone gif'd that water bottle moment yet? Get on it, internet! #sotu

@BlameTelford Nothing rebuts a #sotu like an awkward mid-speech lean across the room for a tiny bottle of water.

@goodasyou That was a really awkward Poland Springs commercial #sotu

@DJMOS Damn, that was the most uncomfortable drink of water in the history of television... #sotu #gop

@calebhays Ok, that drink of water will end up on #snl this week #sotu

@JohnFugelsang And now, Marco Rubio presents the 1st campaign ad for Hilary 2016. #sotu

President Obama wants Congress to increase the minimum wage. Believe me, when it comes to doing the minimum for their wage, Congress knows what it’s talking about. ~ JAY LENO

The most impressive thing about President Obama's State of the Union speech last night was that he did the whole thing without a single drink of water. ~ JAY LENO

Be honest. How many of you never heard of Marco Rubio until last night? How many thought Marco Rubio was a game you played in a pool with the kids? ~ JAY LENO

At every State of the Union address the president is introduced by some guy who walks in and says, “Mr. Speaker, the president of the United States!" If we're really serious about reducing the size of government, start with that guy. What does he work, one day a year? ~ JAY LENO


You gotta wonder what Biden said to Boehner...


The Republican response to President Obama's State of the Union address was given by Senator Marco Rubio. It's just one more example of rich white guys getting a Hispanic to do a job they don't want to do. ~ CONAN

President Obama gave his State of the Union address tonight. The rebuttal will be given by Marco Rubio. Or as he's known in the Republican Party, "our black guy." ~ CONAN

Did you see the State of the Union address? President Obama spoke for an hour. One disappointment: not one mention about the zombie attack in Montana. ~ DAVID LETTERMAN

How many of you watched the State of the Union address just for the commercials? ~ DAVID LETTERMAN

I have to hand it to President Obama. He is full of confidence, really kind of cocky and full of himself. At the end of his State of the Union address he showed America his Kenyan birth certificate. ~ DAVID LETTERMAN

Last night while the president was speaking, the Westminster Dog Show wrapped up. The dog show and the State of the Union address are very different, of course. One's a lot of yapping and prancing and sniffing. And the other is the dog show. ~ CRAIG FERGUSON


President Obama made the annual State of the Union address last night. Then Florida Senator Marco Rubio rebutted for the GOP. He said you can't have a middle class without the rich. He's right. Just like you need "Biggie" fries to have regular-sized fries. ~ JIMMY KIMMEL

While Rubio covered a lot in his State of the Union rebuttal, everyone seems to be focused on him grabbing his water bottle. That's what you get when you eat a whole bag of pretzels before a speech. ~ JIMMY KIMMEL

How about the way Rubio never takes his eyes off the camera when he's reaching for the water. It's like, "Drop the gun on the floor. Put down the gun." ~ JIMMY KIMMEL

But what a night for Poland Spring water. You cannot buy that kind of product placement. At least I hope you can't buy it, but in Washington, who knows? ~ JIMMY KIMMEL

President Obama made his fifth State of the Union address tonight. Traditionally, following the State of the Union address, the opposition party rebuts what the president said. They don't know what the president is going to say, but they know they won't like it. ~ JIMMY KIMMEL

Following the State of the Union speech, Republicans gave their rebuttal. But yesterday Democrats held a press conference to deliver a pre-rebuttal to the Republicans' rebuttal. Democrats decided to pre-emptively rebut their rebuttal. ~ JIMMY KIMMEL

So Democrats gave a speech, responding to a speech no one had ever heard, which itself was in response to a speech no one had ever heard — which I think is the plot to "Inception," isn't it? ~ JIMMY KIMMEL


Before the State of the Union address last night, President Obama did an exploding fist bump with Republican Senator Mark Kirk. Which really goes to show you — it doesn't matter if they're black or white, Republican or Democrat, politicians are really awkward. ~ JIMMY FALLON

President Obama also gave House Speaker John Boehner a thumbs-up before the start of his State of the Union address. Or as Boehner put it, "Beats the finger I usually get!" ~ JIMMY FALLON

Do you know why the White House scheduled the State of the Union address for Lincoln's birthday instead of Washington's birthday? Well, it's because Washington was famous for saying, "I cannot tell a lie." ~ JIMMY FALLON

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said on Fox News Sunday that it's a false argument to say that we have a spending problem. You know something? I think she may be right. I think what we actually have is a "You don't have a clue" problem. ~ JIMMY FALLON

Oh God to be a fly on the wall during that conversation (between Nugent and Lee)!

“Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior?”

“Does Jesus Christ translate to Barack Obama in some African language, dear?”
