If there was ever a time to take advantage of having no fucks left to give, this is it. There’s a lot to say and no one better to say it.

For the one hour or so of the State of Union address he could just read out very slowly the names of all the congress critters from both parties who have donated to the NRA. This might even get them to look up from their phones for a moment.

"In a briefing for reporters Thursday, White House officials said Obama’s agenda for his last year in office includes securing congressional approval of the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade pact, "

Perfect! Trade Terrorism. I guess after seven years I should learn to just lay down and enjoy it.

Maybe he could just read the names of the dead. That is - people who are living now, but will be killed by guns between now and the SOTU. That would probably take an hour.

Hoping for some good-ol’-fashioned fire & brimstone called down upon the Enemies of the Republic.

Considering there’s a mass shooting every day defined by four or more people , he’d need more than hour

@Dr_Coyote I’d like a Samuel L. Jackson-style speech as in Pulp Fiction.

Obama’s Non Traditional State of The Union:
“Things are crummy, and they will stay that way, 'cause I’m just a seat warmer until the next Presidential Election.”
A little Honesty would be refreshing. But I don’t expect it. So much for “Hope and Change”.

I’m just surprised Congress didn’t invite Netanyahu to give the SOTU.

I am really curious; what do you think the this President could have accomplished that he didnt? How can you call him a seat-warmer? Considering the utter obstruction, even when The Senate was Dem, what more could you expect of him?

Please do respond, and p,ease be specific. Thank you.

Between the Netanyahu faction and the Putin faction, the Speaker couldn’t put together a majority of Republicans.

I want to watch him point to any obnoxious Republican TPer and say, “You lie! All of you!”

Here’s hoping for a non-traditional response to an Obama SOTU that features intelligence.

I love the prez and his family. I like his temperment which the white press hates.

It’s a shame he’s gone there already, but… would it be too much to ask for the State of the Union delivered by
the President’s Anger Translator?

Who the f–k cares about his gimmicks. As far as I am concerned, he is MIA. We need a liberal elected president in 2016, and he cannot bring himself to make the country feel a little safer with all that has transpired in the last year, As TPM has assiduously reported, he is about to sign budget bill that’ll gut the tax measures meant to support the ACA, so that in three years, there will be no choice to abandon it. As a self employed member of the middle class, I fell that I have been screwed over by his inattention to business, not the least by the doubling of my insurance premiums and deductibles, that I have to pay with after tax dollars.His solicitude to Bowe Bergdahl makes me want to puke, especially because I know several vets screwed over by the VA that he presides over. He could care less about the need to elect Democrats down ballot.I cannot bring myself to vote Republican because of the social and religious issues, but his inattention to his job makes me want to scream.
