The constitution does not apply to foreign terrorists!!

[txhurl]

No, it’s a state of the Unicorn speech, and the skittles are coming down in buckets.

It’s like a bad student body president speech.

It's not that good.

What do you know about the Constitution Mr pResident?

[Cruz_West_Paul2016]

well is the state of the union strong in all 57 states? even the states where fallen heroes have retired?

[Graewoulf]

Obama just said that he “will only fight those battles that need to be fought.”

IOW, Benghazi Rescue was not a battle that needed to be fought.

[Nowhere Man]

My teenage son just said the president was an ass clown. I was proud and sad at the same time.

My mother had many names for OBongo, can't say them here though. B-) She passed away on November 18th from inflammatory breast cancer and it spread to her brain. Until the last day when she want into a coma and passed away, when Obongo came on the TV, she made a disgusting look on her face.

BTW, here comes GITMO and the no-nukes thing.

Lol!! Looter Guy Makes SOTU Appearance!!

“And this from a supposed Constitutional expert/lawyer.”

The only reason Obama studied the Constitution was so he could learn how to circumvent it. He hate’s the Constitution as written. He’s a progressive, so the Constitution means nothing to him that can’t be changed. That is why he became a Constitutional lawyer, so that he could figure out how to change it, distort it, destroy it. He is evil and a Manchurian President.

[Gritty]

"WE SURRENDER!"...

Now, let's go work on "diplomacy" with the international community ...

[Yaelle]

the fallen heroes in the audience yet?

Would not surprise me to hear him refer to them
that way.

He DID. Once on a Memorial or Veterans Day. He said he saw so many of our fallen heroes in the audience! “I see dead people.”

[Pajamajan]

Privacy of ordinary people not being violated-unless you’re conservative/tea party member.

[FoxInSocks]

Did he mention something about nobody gives more than statesmen or something? I thought about Ambassador Stevens and the other Americans being left to die.

[locountry1dr]

When he talked about “remaining true to our Constitutional ideals,” I thought lightning would strike from above.

[null and void]

[P-Marlowe]

Did I miss the “pen” and the “Telephone” part?

[Irenic]

Absopositlutely!

[Kevin in California]

Is this dolt still on? Think I’ll go shave my bag....

[LeoWindhorse]
