His references to “a more perfect union” make me cringe.

If I don’t hit the mute button when someone from this sorryazz administration speaks (from the bottom down), I will blow out every one of my bloody veins and arteries, and they just aren’t worth buying the farm for.

Good on Sarah that she was able to excuse herself.

By the way, with all this yukkin’ it up...Santa Barbara’s got a bit of a situation...who the bugger from this administration is handling it? Or are there not enough of my darker skinned brothers in peril for them to pay it mind?

Now, of course, if it were Dubya...

It was embarrassing. Did you notice how many times he told a joke and never even smiled?

Creepy.

It’s not ideology, it’s him laughing at his own jokes as he speaks them. He finds himself too fill-in-the-blank.

Yep - I’d say he should keep his day job, but that thought continues to sicken me.

As a funny, uplifting or decent presidential speech, it bombed .. no ideology in the mix.

Good grief, and that's her best line so far

yes, joking about terrifying New York with one of Our Most Symbolic Symbols, OUR AIR FORCE ONE! garbage about his crumb crunchers taking it for a ride! Outrageous! And We are finding out AF 1 was probably forced to participate in a filming of a Movie about the Tuskeggee Airmen which explains the Red tailed fighter buzzing along with it...
