Back in 1992, I had a bumper sticker that read “CNN LIES”
It is now 1000’s of times worse.

[ But they all groaned aloud when he mentioned victims of illegal alien crimes ]

The Liberal whine of “IF WE CAN SAVE JUST ONE LIFE” by implementing a huge bureaucracy... seems really effing hollow!

Ryan showed more expression in general than did Pence. Probably cultural.

dems didn’t applaud when Trump said he was the president of the US, not the world

What a sad bunch they are. Just filled with hate and soul sickness.

I don’t think it was a real boo. It was a spontaneous moan of despair.

Will finish reading the comments tomorrow.

A few trivial comments:

No one mentioned that Melania was wearing a pantsuit. She looked so fabulous that nobody noticed.

Anyone else impressed with the two Secret Service guys preceding Trump? Were they ever doing their job! Tough hombres.

The Dems were selective in what they clapped for. Always thinking votes.

Bravo to the TV staff, always selecting the right shot to accompany the action. That is an unappreciated talent. They have to know who everybody is and what they stand for.

I hate to give another mention of the white costumes, because they only did it to get some press and take some attention away from Trump.

Good that Trump did not have his whole family there. He was aware of the fact that they would be taking seats away from others, I believe.

Even more impressive than the speech was the way the President moves through a room, with a genuine regard for everyone he greets, nothing superficial, always a little extra. A born diplomat.

I’m over it.

Freakin annoying and on an awesome night.

All we did was win, win, win.

I was curious as to whether he would mention ObamaCare.

Well, he did and declared it would be repealed and replaced as promised.

He is keeping his promises and I couldn’t be more hopeful.

He even implored the other side to work on common issues.

I have a feeling he will be the most extraordinary leader of the Bully Pulpit if they stall or outright block.

Can’t wait for Friday. It will be like Christmas over and over.

It was funny to see John McCain’s staff of nurses. A little concerning they were sitting so far away from him however.

Please keep me up to date regarding your runoff. There are only two weeks to win now out the non contenders and I’d like to send some loot to the right one.

Funny how Pelosi and Sgt Schultz got all those black congresswomen to wear white for black history month. It was like the other day when Jesse Waters asked the college dummie why they were celebrating white privilege month during black history month. Crickets...

Hannity had Ryan on the other night, and Ryan said 200 days to get things done. Then Hannity asked, “does that include?” And Ryan kept saying 200 days. BS Ryan doesn’t have a clue.

I read the other day the democrats had Obama care ready to go years before Obama was elected - they just tweaked it each year. How many years have Boehner/Ryan had repeal and replace in the works. The house needs a leader who can keep up with President Trump. Ryan ain’t it. 200 days is not going to get us anywhere.

The WPA: “We Poke Along”, as Grandpa called it because every time he saw a crew they were pretty much standing around doing nothing.
