    No, thanks. This is always a waste of time (either party). The Democrats will cheer every policy announcement he makes while Republicans sit on their hands, everyone will cheer him lauding a service man/woman and some disadvantaged person he has sitting next to his wife, and this year will be a glorified political rally for his re-election campaign.


    For this one in particular I do like how he's announced he's going to give a blueprint for how to fix the economy. 3 years in, and he's just getting around to this? :lol:
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    I plan on watching...

    I do find it amusing that those who do not watch (or refuse to watch) the speech will be complaining the loudest...

    CONservative governMENt

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    Well you should give them one more chance to teach you the error of your ways.
    "The really important thing is not to live, but to live well. And to live well meant, along with more enjoyable things in life, to live according to your principles."
    — Socrates

    Give me a break...Obama has never been close to being liberal.
    He's a centrist just like Clinton, the dem before him. A true liberal will never sit in the Whitehouse. A centrist will be the farthest left well ever see. Sadly, as the right gets further right...the center also moves...

    It was good shit.. It's funny cause I was sitting there watching all of this unfold thinking to myself, I remember being young and pissed off cause this was taking over the T.V. that I wanted to watch and now here I am, a grown man who gives a shit about the world I live in and I get to witness this in person.. Great experience.

    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    "I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'
