Embarrassing excuse offered for Biden’s vanishing State of the Union Address
American Thinker ^ | 02/26/2021 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 02/26/2021 7:08:04 AM PST by SeekAndFind

All of a sudden, here it is the end of February and there is no State of the Union (SOTU) address scheduled for President Biden. That’s odd because last month, Biden promised what sounds exactly like a SOTU:

"Next month, in my first appearance before a joint session of Congress, I will lay out my 'Build Back Better' recovery plan," he said. "It will make historic investments in infrastructure, manufacturing, innovation, and research and development in clean energy."

AP and PBS both got wind that the address was to be given on February 23 in and said so in posts that are now deep-sixed:

But on February 16, Jen Psaki denied such a plan in a press conference:

[W]hen asked about the timing, his press secretary Jen Psaki said there had never been a plan for him to address a joint session this month.

"We don't know where the Feb. 23 date came from. It's a great mystery,” she said during the regular daily briefing.

“I've not Nancy Drewed that one out today, but it was never planned to be in February, and we don't have a date for a joint session at this point," Psaki said, comparing herself to the popular character in a series of children's books who solves mysteries.

Of course, it is only tradition, that a president address a joint session of Congress early in the year to fulfill the constitutional requirement (Article II, Section 3) that a POTUS “shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient….”

He will probably end up doing what Jimmy Carter did at the height of his unpopularity: sending the SOTU to congress in writing.

I think it’s a grand idea to do it that way in any event, as a SOTU speech wastes about two weeks of government time to little effect other than a stupid dog and pony show.

I think Isaac Newton may have missed a law, a president’s ability is inversely proportional to the amount of fraud required to elect him.

If the SOTU threat exists....then you might need to retain 10,000 National Guardsmen in the capital permanently.

That’s pretty good! The equation would look like this:

Ability = k / Fraud

The trick would be to find the value of the constant ‘k’. I think I’m going to apply for a federal grant to study the problem. And don’t worry. If I win a Nobel Prize for this, I’ll be sure to mention you. 👍

I don't understand the focus this is getting.

We already know he has nothing good to say about the Trump administration, and everything he's done has yet to do anything but piss everyone off, so what would he say ?

The only people laughing are our republic’s enemies.

The freedom-loving parts of the planet are terrified.

Why the focus?

Because while we’re paying to attention to stuff like this, we’re not paying attention to what Deep State is doing sub rosa.

Until we find out the hard way.

A race war serves two purposes for Deep State: it divides and it distracts.

Folks should stop biting.

THE JOE BIDEN SOTU ADDRESS:

Biden: 4 and 20 years ago when our 4 fathers came to this land, I noticed America was a great place. We had TV and the... the thingamagig... the whatchmacallit... in place to give prosperity black to the people.

Crowd: Ah!

Biden: And I intend to give even more black to the people. Look folk, we have the greatest fraud agency in the world. The borders are now open to the Chicanos, Latinos, and the Ricky Martins of the world to come in and perform on America’s Got Talent.

Crowd: WOW!

Biden: My wife Jill is an ambassador of LOVE. You know what I’m saying. I just bombed the crap out of Syria the other day. Because we don’t need their war machine, we don’t need their ghetto dreams. She’s an American Woman, you know what I’m saying...

Crowd: UH?

Biden: I have the keys to the nuclear arsenal and if Trump thinks he can take that away... son of a bitch... I’ll have him fired. He still thinks he’s the president. But I got the nukes, baby.

Crowd: We love you Joe.

Biden: Lets get serious folk. We don’t have to worry about China because I have made a deal. That guy xix zan ping pong... whatchamacallit... is a clown. I’m going to get Kim Ill Jung to go after him with his nukes. We’ll have him surrounded because he gave us the COVID.

Crowd: We love you Joe.

Biden: I know you love me but wear a mask when eating and having sex. Did you know the Constitution protects you from COVID, according to Dr. Fauci. America is a great place and I’m going to place 20,000 troops in every town to protect you against white supremists. You deserve it folks.

Crowd: we love you Joe.

Biden: And this is my parting gift... my promise.. that if the white people come to your town... I will nuke them.

Crowd: We love you Joe.

Buden: I have just heard a report form my team that they are in Washington... so the nukes are...

Crowd: ARE WHAT JOE!!!!

Biden: Are already in the air.

Crowd: AAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Biden: Don’t panic... we will get those bastards.

Siren: (POOP) (POOP) (POOP)
