State of the Union

[Irving]

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.

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

OBAMA: "Starting in 2011, we are prepared to freeze government spending for three years. Spending related to our national security, Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security will not be affected. But all other discretionary government programs will. Like any cash-strapped family, we will work within a budget to invest in what we need and sacrifice what we don't."

From my earlier post on this thread:

...Anyone want to wager AGAINST him saying that the .gov will begin to cut spending? Of course, what he won't tell us is that they only expect to cut discretionary spending which is less than 1% of the total federal budget...

Damn! I called that one.

[Ridge]

He is cutting spending to departments like Energy and Transportation.

So we wont have any power or roads to travel anywhere...

Bailey - I wish I'd seen your BARACK Bingo post earlier! That would have been great!

....so his true legacy could down down as a failure in less than 4 years, even worse than carter.

Yeah. Who would have thought that we'd ever look back n the Carter years and think "Well, at least he wasn't the worst President ever"?

Oh snap! its on now. Oh well. Beck will just break it all down for me tomorrow in a condensed truthful version.

I fell asleep within the first 5 minutes (I was pretty tired) but was immediately annoyed he didn't just jump right into it. I feel like that is a non-partisan complaint. Anyway, I woke up half an hour into it, and am pretty damn annoyed that people are seriously trying to go into full blown applause at the end of every other sentence. You could tell he was getting pissed for a while. Also, Nancy Pelosi continuously trying to jump up and turn her favorite parts into a standing ovation like some helicopter mom at a soccer game is driving me up the wall. This would be MUCH easier to watch if I didn't have to stare at the two people I dislike more than anyone else (Biden and Pelosi) the whole time.
