THANK YOU Sgt 1st Class Cory Remsburg !

God bless you and keep you and may you be well .

The longest standing ovation of the night . As well it should be .

[Nowhere Man]

You got it right - the destruction of America is going to be the legacy of affirmative action. This guy is indeed an ass clown; he is the dumbest president in the history of the U. S. If the country survives this jerk it will be a miracle.

We already have proof, our President is the first "Affimative Action" president. I know he's talking about a soldier blind in one eye, nothing against him but one can overcome that. My father is blind in one eye from an industrial accident, he even drove tanker trucks and at 76, still drives long distances for pleasure. Same with my aunt, his sister, she's blind in one eye and is over 80.

[Gene Eric]

Finally something to applaud.

Here comes another personal vignette.

He spins more fables than Aesop.

He's now in full Oscar acting mode.

Where's Price Waterhouse with the envelope?

Listened to Reagans state of the union speeches today. This is really low brow least common denominator stuff.

[LeoWindhorse]

Rangers lead the way !....

[Windflier]

This whole speech is telling us he is taking over this country by executive orders and we can’t do anything about it. A pox on him. He can’t take our liberties because they are inside our bodies and he isn’t getting mine.

Amen, Marcella. I'm with you.

[firebrand]

Go Army!

[Gene Eric]

Our democracy? I thought we were a Republic.

[exit82]

Good Lord! Is he STILL yakking?!

[Political Junkie Too]

We're back to the awe and amazement voice.

:D When? Let's wait until the eastern half of the country recovers from it's latest bout of global warming.

[Cruz_West_Paul2016]

so has anyone’s pet coughed up a few hair balls yet?

[LeoWindhorse]

America needs to be led by warriors , not lawyers .

[Truth29]

"We may need to go Ukraine on this prez and the whole DC crowd."

Best idea of the night. We sure aren't going to be save by the GOP.

[madison10]

I couldn’t listen to Reagan now, I’d be bawling my eyes out. I really, really miss that U.S.A. and Reagan.

(Margaret Thatcher, too)

BRING IT !
