I thought the flight of the Chinese spy balloon across the United States was a national embarrassment, but it was nothing compared to President Biden’s State of the Union performance last night. I thought he hit the high point with his congratulation of Kevin McCarthy for ascending to the Speakership in the first few seconds of his speech. The speed of the descent varied, but it was downhill all the way from there. That means it was a long, long way downhill.
The Washington Post has a useful set of corrections on subjects other than those I mention below (the link is to the accessible version published by Jewish World Review). David Harsanyi adds a stylish touch in his Federalist column “Don’t Fall For Joe Biden’s Economic Fairy Tale.”
Biden wants to “finish the job” he has started. The phrase appears in the text of his speech 12 times. I think that has an ominous ring. Finishing the job will finish us off.
Regarding the Chinese spy balloon, he gave us nothing. It’s apparently no big deal, but it did fit weirdly with his comments about China: “Before I came to office, the story was about how the People’s Republic of China was increasing its power and America was falling in the world. Not anymore.” Shouldn’t someone have bothered to rework that passage?
He gave us angry old man Biden shouting for reasons known only to himself. He gave us phony old man Biden with his obnoxious stage whisper. He slurred his words like a drunken sailor. The White House has posted the text of his remarks “as prepared for delivery” so you might be able to ascertain what he was attempting to say. Both as prepared and as delivered it was a bizarre speech.

I caught a glimpse of Rep. Rose DeLauro during the speech, but I can’t find a photo of her there this morning. I didn’t know she had blue/purple hair. On average, the Democratic congressional contingent struck me as an unusually unattractive crew.
OMG!
OMG that creature is still alive? and got re-elected?
She looks like Jeff Beck the morning after.
Unbelievable right? Like voting for one of the Walking Dead.
Looks like Keith Richard’s sister.
She’s actually a bit older than Keith...she’ll be EIGHTY next month.
KR’s OLDER sister?
I like the part were Biden said the USA is only going to need oil for 10 more years. After that it is all unicorn farts and rainbows.
