[cebeu]

Who else is palnning to watch? What are you looking for in the speech tonight?

CSPAN Agenda Summary: In a televised speech to the nation, Pres. Obama will deliver his State of the Union address to Congress. He is expected to lay out his vision for the future of the country, and his plan to deal with unemployment, health care, and the wars in Iraq & Afghanistan.

A total crash of the nations economy?]. He'll tell us that we need to continue to make sacrifices while the .gov makes the "hard choices that need to be made".

Oh yeah, if I watch this thing I'll need to ensure I have a bucket of popcorn, a bag of peanuts or I won't be able to enjoy this circus.

[Mtn.man]

I would need a teleprompter to keep me on point. When I get going, I branch off on so many tangents that if you graphed my speech, it would look like a Mandelbrot or some other fractal.

Squirrel!

I will find something to watch that isn't a complete misrepresentation and does not make me angry.

This could make it fun. A little booze, a little bingo... First one to spell "BARACK" wins!
