State of the Union Address

[SixPackInBoxers]

This year, Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address fall on

the same day.

It is an ironic juxtaposition: One involves a meaningless ritual in

which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication.

*

The other involves a groundhog.

That's from Air America Radio.

You ought to attribute it.

Stealing other people's stuff and pretending it's yours is scummy.

Can't wait to see how rosie Bush paints the war in Iraq, the economy, gas prices, health care and other major issues. I will forgo his address and watch some gay porn instead.

Just once in my life I'd like to hear a State of the Union address that actually talks about the state of the Union.

If the President told you the real State of the Union, the stock market would implode and we'd be selling apples on the street corner.

And just like all other SOTU's, every ridiculous claim will be met with fake applaus and pointless standing ovations. It's the most nonsensical ritual in DC.

If you want to feel good and believe everything is going great in this country, just go ahead and watch! I always got sucked into these speeches and actually feel that this country is near perfect. However once it's over, I'm set back into reality. Thank God, this is Bush's last SOTU. I was watching CNN and they had a promo advertising it and the background voice was like "How can Bush save his legacy in his last SOTU?" I love it...

"How can Bush save his legacy in his last SOTU?"

A good start would be for Bush to arrest all the historians, send them to Gitmo and waterboard 'em into submission!

I'd love it if the fucker got up to the podium and flipped everyone the bird with that snarky ass laugh of his.

It's his LAST SOTUA to Congress, and why not explain what he's done to our UNION?

FUCKED IT FOR HIS CORPORATE BUDDIES, AND the Neo-Cons who put him there.

At least if he flipped everyone off that it be THE MOST honest thing that he'd ever done as POTUS during his two disastrous terms.

But instead what I expect is that G.W. will get up there and blow smoke up America's ass, and the Repugs will applaud, and the Dems will pretend not to notice.

Exactly! I used to watch them but gave up when I realized the fake applause took up like one third of the time. I just read the summary in the paper the next morning.

I would love to see everyone in the room stand up and flip him the bird and leave.

Wouldn't that be great???

I give that idea one of these:

Or better yet, the networks refuse to televise it as they prefer to show "Happy Feet" or "Enchanted".
