***THE OFFICIAL STATE OF THE UNINFORMED SILLINESS THREAD***

In a surprise last minute announcement, the White House has revealed that President Obama will live tweet his own State of the Union address before Congress Tuesday night. Spokesman Josh Earnest confirmed that the president will have a smartphone with him at the podium in the House chamber so he can make real time comments on Twitter as he delivers his nationally televised speech.

“The President feels that providing a credible, instant reaction to his words via social media will mean increased message awareness with millennial and tech-savvy consumers,” said Earnest. “And who better to provide that reaction than the President himself.”

Using the hashtag #POTUSLive, the President will use pauses during applause in the speech to tweet clarifications of policy statements, comment on the facial expressions of audience members, and share selfies of himself with House Speaker John Boehner and Vice-President Joe Biden.

Obviously a joke. He can barely manage eye contact with two TOTUSes. He’s going to tweet during the recorded applause intervals, too?

Ever feel frustrated while watching the State of the Union?

Do you sometimes wait until it's over to tune in and hear the analysis of how bad it was?

Yeah, us too. It's time for a different kind of coverage.

DRINK when you see the invited illegal alien!

The RAT'S monster issue during their 2014 "please reelect me" smashing - 'FIXING' Zerocare. Will be mentioned once just a mere 60 days after the wipeout?

I haven’t watched one since that little bitch has been elected, and that’s unusual for me. I always tolerated watching Clinton’s. Though Clinton was a sleazy dirtbag politician, and the worst kind of human; I believe he still wanted to see our country succeed. I definitely can’t say that about 0bama, and maybe not even his party anymore.

They ARE the ‘culture of Treason’....
