Honestly -- rank this SOTU address.   I think it is possibly the worst one ever given.   With all his speaking talents, this really falls short.  

Painful to sit through this.  Do you think that the average American is still watching?  sure, we have a serious political addiction and torture ourselves sitting through it, but the average Joe?   I don't think so.

The words in my head are not polite.

Mine either.

Rum.

This whole speech is one big campaign push.  Hasn't spoken a word on the "state of the Union".

He has taken both sides of every issue.

Okay - i've seen about 6 minutes thus far. What SOTU address? Not a damned statement about the union yet - that I've seen. Nothing but pontificiation and bullshit.

Exactly. Like someone else said, it was a giant campaign speech.

Thanks guys. I refused to watch the HDIC. (Head DUmmy in charge)
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

This is the first one I've sat and watched almost all the way through (missed the first 30 minutes since I was out with the girlfriend). It sucked donkey balls.

Me and one of my roommates sat down and did the SOTU Bingo drinking game together. I find it hard to believe I'll have my paper revised for submission for publication tomorrow... I need to get something to eat. Pizza I think so I don't have to drive.

Now there is a responsible man.  A dummie would go get tacos from Jack.  I fried an egg.  Order from Papa Johns.  10% goes to Officer Story's family today.  I am sure Denton is considered in the DFW tally.  Good luck on the paper.

And the blitz is on!!! The news whores are claiming that this was an awesome...unprecedented speech. 99% of all Americans wuvs the president and thinks his speech was the bomb!

Meh. I went and gave Aaron Jr. a bath so I missed the end, and the Republican response.

Worth looking for the replay?
