Every time he says folks, drink. Every time he says “fair share,” drink.

Every time he says “extraordinary,” drink. Every time he brags about working tirelessly, drink.

When he frets about lack of compromise, drink.

If he says “Bring me a bill and I’ll sign it,” drink.

When he brings up the middle class, the people he’s ruining, drink.

Every time he says “It’s the right thing to do,” drink.

Every time he cites someone that his policies have helped, drink. If she’s in the audience, drink some more.

Every time he says, “I never said it would be easy,” drink. If he says that after mentioning Obamacare, drink again.

If he says Obamacare’s rough start was worth it, drink. And every time he reminds us that running a country is really hard, say, “yeah, we can tell,” and drink.

Each time he mentions an economic recovery no one has seen, drink.

Seriously, the only shovel-ready job he’s created was speechwriter. And when he says it won’t happen overnight, drink one more.
 
And when he says, “make no mistake, let me be clear,” and “there are those who disagree,” drink, drink, drink.

Every time he says “we can do better” as he fails at everything, or “we are better than that,” drink. Which reminds me, what’s with all the “we’s?” It’s you up there, not us.

Finally, each time you feel like you’re being screwed, drink. And, if you still buy anything from this gas bag, you deserve the world’s worst hangover, and enjoy it, because you built that.

GOP Rep. to bring 'Duck Dynasty' star to State of the Union as guest

By Rebecca Shabad

Rep. Vance McAllister (R-La.) will bring “Duck Dynasty” star Willie Robertson to the State of the Union address on Tuesday.

“I am proud to have my close friend, constituent and small business owner, Willie Robertson, attend tonight’s State of the Union Address as my special guest,” McAllister said in a statement.

Robertson’s father, Phil Robertson, was suspended from the A&E reality show in December because of anti-gay and racial remarks he made in an interview.

He told GQ magazine that homosexuality is a sin, and African-Americans were happier living under Jim Crow laws.

The show, which began in 2012, is set in Louisiana. McAllister won the special election in November to replace former Rep. Rodney Alexander (R-La.).

Phil Robertson endorsed McAllister in the race to win the district, which is located in a rural area along the Mississippi River. Willie also recorded a get-out-the-vote video for McAllister in the lead-up to the election.

“Willie is thankful for this opportunity and honored to attend. I look forward to the two of us representing the Fifth District in DC this evening and bringing some diversity to our nation’s capitol.”

Never listened to Clinton state of the union. Not about to listen now to the communist living in the White House.

The only good thing to come out of the Obama presidency is the hope I have that people will have seen enough suck from the Democrats to be put off voting for another one of them for a very, very long time.

(One correction to the article, though.  Phil did NOT say that blacks were happier under Jim Crow laws.  He said that the people he worked with in the fields when he was younger were Godly, happy people who didn't complain about whites all the time.  BIG difference).

Do they do a comparable on your side of the Atlantic?  I know the Queen makes an address of some sort, does the PM?

The Queen's addresses are about the closest. The opening address covers desired legislation in the next year. Her Christmas address covers what actually happened during the year to all of us, and her closing address sets the stage for next years plans.

Of the three, the Christmas one is most watched. Broadcast on BBC TV and Radio, bang on 15:00 Christmas Day.

The PM doesn't make a SOTU as such - but he has to stand in Parliament once a week and take questions. It's acceptable for him to say "I don't know" but he has to find out and provide the questioner with an answer within 48 hours, which must also be provided to Hansard (it's a massive compendium of every law, debate and answer since about 1800 and is public record).
The only other major national speech we have is the budget, where the Chancellor says what is going up (beer, booze and baccy ALWAYS go up) and spending targets for the year.

Under liberals in Australia they have raised the min wage to the US equivalent of $20 an hour.  As a result - Ford and other manufacturers are leaving Australia because they cannot afford to pay these low-level workers this high a wage.

Michelle Obama SOTU 2014 guests: Auto exec, gay NBA player, bombing survivors

 Michelle Obama SOTU 2014 guests: Auto exec, gay NBA player, bombing survivors
By: Associated Press
January 28, 2014 04:01 PM EST

WASHINGTON — The guests who will be joining Michelle Obama tonight to watch the president deliver his State of the Union address will include the first woman to lead a major automaker, an Illinois woman whose emergency unemployment benefits have run out, and an openly gay former NBA player.

It's become tradition for the first lady's guests to include those whose personal stories can help highlight a particular policy or issue.

Tonight, the first lady will be joined by Mary Barra, who became GM's CEO this month. The company benefited from a federal bailout of the auto industry. Another guest is Misty DeMars of Illinois. The White House says she lost her job because of budget cuts a week after buying a home with her husband in May of last year. She wrote to Obama after her emergency unemployment benefits expired.

Jason Collins last year became the first active male athlete on a major American sports team to come out as openly gay. He played for 12 years in the NBA. Obama has said his announcement marked progress for the gay community.

Also seated with the first lady will be two survivors of the Boston Marathon bombing. There will also be an Army Ranger who has met multiple times with the president. And the guests will include a man who was brought to the U.S. illegally as a child.

Also invited is the Atlanta woman who is credited with preventing a shooting at an elementary school by talking the gunman into surrendering.

If Obama says

'Pahk ee stahn' or' let me be clear' ONE time, I don't know if I can keep it on.

Truly the only way I think I can muster watching this thing is that I know know matter how much Al Sharpton scream preaches on MSNBC, or CNN says he looked handsome. Everyone knows they are full of shit.

And someone send Boehner a memo and tell him his ratings are low because he acts ike McCain and is a democrat.

BTW Thomas Jefferson submitted the SOTU in writing  - it was done that way until Woodrow Wilson thought he should stand in front of congress and deliver it in person.  I vote we return to the Jefferson method.

The Executive Authority to Take a Drink: Reason’s 2014 SOTU Drinking Game

Peter Suderman|Jan. 28, 2014 2:21 pm

    Email

The Washington Post’s Glenn Kessler looked back at the litany of proposals from last year’s big presidential address to Congress and found that almost no action was taken on any of them: Just four of the 23 proposals in the speech resulted in any completed actions. (Those that did tended to be pretty basic stuff: the passage of a budget, the completion of a bipartisan commission report on the voting experience in America, etc.)

Another way to put it is that last year’s State of the Union was mostly meaningless — a grab bag of ideas that never took. 

That’s the good news.

The bad news is that President Obama has decided to look for ways to go around Congress instead. With his own approval numbers sagging, and a midterm election on the way that’s likely to favor the GOP, he knows that his legislative agenda will probably remain as stagnant this year as it was last.

So he’s putting together a to-do list of executive actions for the coming year. “We’re not just going to be waiting for legislation” he said earlier this month. “I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone.” And he plans to wield them both.

But first he’ll wield the power of the pulpit. This year’s address to the joint Congress is widely expected to be built around the theme of inequality. “Obama’s message “will place any discussion of inequality in the broader context of shrinking economic opportunity,” White House advisers tell The Washington Post. “He will seek to make his economic policy more easily relatable to ordinary Americans, focusing on college affordability, retirement security, infrastructure, health care and other issues.”

In other words, another grab bag. At least we can take solace in the hope that most of it won’t matter.

That and a tasty beverage. Reason staffers will be live Tweeting and live-drinking the speech. For those who want to play along, the rules (guidelines, really) are below. 

Take a drink, and click a link, any time President Obama…

    Mentions inequality. Take another if, in the same sentence, he refers to “the wealthiest Americans.” Chug the rest of the bottle if he mentions “the 1 percent.”

    Describes government spending as an investment.

    Talks about economic mobility without noting that mobility has not changed in fifty years.

    Forgets to apologize for lying when he said that people who liked their doctors and their health plans could keep them under Obamacare.

    Says the words “nation building at home.”

    Falsely insists that there’s no evidence of any abuses of power at the National Security Agency.

    Grudgingly admits that the surveillance state may have gone too far—but calls for weak reforms that won’t rein in its power.

    Credits Obamacare for its Medicaid enrollment, despite the fact that we have no idea how many Medicaid enrollees since October are for people who are newly eligible under the law.

    Mentions Syria, which Obama wanted to bomb, and then (thank goodness!) didn’t.

    Says anything interesting about foreign policy.

    Falsely presents something as a false choice.

    Starts any sentence with the words, “Let me be clear.” Double shot if it’s an ad-lib not in the prepared text.
Quote

Finally, take a drink any time the cameras cut away to Chad Henderson, the Obamacare poster boy who told reporters he was among the first to sign up under the law but hadn't actually enrolled in health insurance. He says he'll be there, as a guest of Texas GOP Rep. Steve Stockman.

As always, Reason encourages drinking responsibly. How else will you know when a politician is trying to pull one over on you?

A woman on Wilkow said she was at a college forum a few weeks ago and a kid (sounded like our Liberal Spy) stood up and said he thought the tax payers should pay off his $27,000 in student loans... she said she asked him - so you think everyone sitting in this room needs to chip in and pay for loans you decided to take out?  He stood there for a moment, looked around the room at real faces and said - Ohhhhh I see what you mean... and quickly sat down.  She was pointing out we need to confront these things rather than run from them and the GOP keeps running from them,.

Obama: I won't 'stand still'


http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/196725-obama-i-wont-stand-still

Quote
President Obama will vow to pursue a populist economic agenda with or without the help of lawmakers in his State of the Union address on Tuesday night.

Obama will say he will not “stand still,” but will act on his own if he cannot work with Congress.

ADVERTISEMENT
“What I offer tonight is a set of concrete, practical proposals to speed up growth, strengthen the middle class, and build new ladders of opportunity into the middle class,” Obama will tell the assembled members of Congress, according to excerpts of his speech provided by the White House. 

“Some require Congressional action, and I’m eager to work with all of you.  But America does not stand still – and neither will I.  So wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families, that’s what I’m going to do.”

The White House has been signaling Obama will rely more on executive actions in the second year of his second term, something Republicans are increasingly condemning as an abuse of power. Democratic allies argue the actions are appropriate given GOP obstructionism in Congress.

Author Dr Paul Kengor was on Mark Levin's show a few moments ago. His latest book, The Communist, traces the communist ancestry of Barack Obama, David Axelrod, and Valerie Jarret, to the Chicago Communist Party USA. The name Frank Marshall Davis figures prominently along with David Cantor, patriarch of the well-known Chicago Communist Party, USA Cantor family, from the 1930s and 1940s, who mentored David Axelrod. Fascinating interview.

Will any of the so-called journalist covering the State of the Union speech mention any of Obama's communist ideological upbringing? I don't think so. I spit on the American media propagandists.

Top Ten Announcements in Tonight’s SOTU Speech (http://www.whitehousedossier.com/2014/01/28/top-ten-announcements-tonights-sotu-speech/)
by Keith Koffler on January 28, 2014, 1:21 pm


Using bribes and flattery, White House Dossier this morning was able to obtain an advance copy of President Obama’s State of the Union address.

We share with you here the top ten remarks you can expect to hear from Obama this evening.

*******

1. We need a minimum wage. But tonight, I’m also announcing – a maximum wage.

2. I plan to rule by fiat, as well as by Alfa Romeo.

3. Ask not what your country can do for you, unless you need something.

4. In today’s world, even a college education is not enough. That’s why I’m announcing that we need to give everyone the right to a PhD in astrophysics.

5. We need not just to throw the conservatives out of New York, but out of New Jersey, New Mexico, Texas, Michigan, and every state where you might find them, so that tolerance can reign from sea to shining sea.

6. If Republicans don’t like Obamacare, why are they complaining that no one can sign up? Did you ever think of that?

7. I’ve asked Vice President Biden to lead my gun control campaign because he understands guns, having frequently shot himself in the foot.

8. We’ve extracted ironclad promises from Iran not to build a nuclear weapons. And I’m announcing this evening that as a back up, we’ve received further promises from the Iranians that if they do build nuclear weapons, they will use them for research purposes only.

9. Still today, we are plagued by the mistakes of George W. Bush. And so we ask him: Why won’t you just leave us alone?

10. Some people are unhappy that I’m slowly establishing a dictatorship, and I say, don’t worry, I’m going to speed it up.

Obama: 'Let's Get Immigration Reform Done This Year' Even Though Only 3% of Americans Care About the Issue:

    Finally, if we are serious about economic growth, it is time to heed the call of business leaders, labor leaders, faith leaders, and law enforcement – and fix our broken immigration system.  Republicans and Democrats in the Senate have acted.  I know that members of both parties in the House want to do the same.  Independent economists say immigration reform will grow our economy and shrink our deficits by almost $1 trillion in the next two decades.  And for good reason: when people come here to fulfill their dreams – to study, invent, and contribute to our culture – they make our country a more attractive place for businesses to locate and create jobs for everyone.  So let's get immigration reform done this year.

Obama Calls for Action on Global Warming, More Solar Panels (Has he and the media forgotten about Solyndra?)... as Brutal Ice Storm Rips Across the Nation (It is 18 degrees in Washington, D.C. as Obama speaks):

    It's not just oil and natural gas production that's booming; we're becoming a global leader in solar, too. Every four minutes, another American home or business goes solar; every panel pounded into place by a worker whose job can't be outsourced.  Let's continue that progress with a smarter tax policy that stops giving$4 billion a year to fossil fuel industries that don't need it, so that we can invest more in fuels of the futurethat do.

    [...]

    But we have to act with more urgency – because a changing climate is already harming western communities struggling with drought, and coastal cities dealing with floods. That's why I directed my administration to work with states, utilities, and others to set new standards on the amount of carbon pollution our power plants are allowed to dump into the air.  The shift to a cleaner energy economy won't happen overnight, and it will require tough choices along the way.  But the debate is settled.  Climate change is a fact. And when our children's children look us in the eye and ask if we did all we could to leave them a safer, more stable world, with new sources of energy, I want us to be able to say yes, we did.

The RNC has quotes from prominent economists that have determined Obama's energy investments are "not the most efficient" way to jumpstart the economy.

UPDATE: Obama Says Climate Change Is a "Fact." Global Warming Is Religion to Liberals.

 Obama Wants to Ensure "More Young Men of Color Facing Tough Odds" Reach Their Full Potential, but He Mentions Nothing About School Choice and Pushes More Amnesty:

    And I'm reaching out to some of America's leading foundations and corporations on a new initiative to help more young men of color facing tough odds stay on track and reach their full potential.

    The bottom line is, Michelle and I want every child to have the same chance this country gave us.  But we know our opportunity agenda won't be complete – and too many young people entering the workforce today will see the American Dream as an empty promise – unless we do more to make sure our economy honors the dignity of work, and hard work pays off for every single American.

Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) has repeatedly emphasized that passing comprehensive immigration reform would devastate the working Americans, especially those who are struggling in minority communities.

    I'm also convinced we can help Americans return to the workforce faster by reforming unemployment insurance so that it's more effective in today's economy. But first, this Congress needs to restore the unemployment insurance you just let expire for 1.6 million people.

It Is the Congress That Could Stop Him’: Napolitano on Obama’s Executive Order Pledge
by Fox News Insider // Jan 27 2014 // 9:57pm
As seen on The Kelly File

President Obama has said that he will sidestep Congress with executive orders if lawmakers don’t approve legislation.

Who is he acting for if he is acting on his own, and is he crossing a legal line? Judge Andrew Napolitano was on The Kelly File to answer those questions.

Krauthammer: Obama’s Executive Order Threat ‘Sort of Pathetic’

“He probably will act for his friends, he probably will act for his base, for his supporters," Napolitano said. "Let’s say members of labor unions, whose pay he might be able to affect if they work for corporations who are doing business with the federal government.” Napolitano said that Obama can’t change the minimum wage without Congress, but he could change the minimum wage that the federal government pays to its contractors.

Napolitano explained executive orders, saying that the president must enforce the laws as they were written and intended. He said Obama can cross the line if he changes a law by enforcing one part and not another.

'Special Report' Panel Previews State of the Union

Kelly pointed out that the Supreme Court said Obama has a lot of latitude in terms of regulating Congress.

“In fairness to President Obama, it is Congress that has given the president - this president and his predecessors - this kind of leeway. It is Congress that has allowed the president to get away with this. It is the Congress that could stop him, and it is the Congress that will probably roll over when he does it,” Napolitano said.

Me, either... I literally have the Blaze on all day now.... I love it!  So tired of the mealy mouth crap over at Fox.  I do still watch Megyn Kelly at night - and it cracks me up how she has Will Cain, or Buck Sexton or other Real News people on almost every night now......

Unlike FOX, I think Glenn Beck has fostered an atmosphere of 'don't be afraid to say what you think, as long as it is the truth'.  I don't think the panel is as "censored" as those on FOX, who seem to have to walk on egg shells around Obama and the GOP elite.

I think you're right which is why I don't get why people still trash Beck.... he is all about telling it like it is - of course this is why I'm an independent instead of Republican now.

Good points about the similarities between Carter and Obama and the Reagan way which turned the economy around almost over night. 

Here we have O saying we need to bring all these low wage people into the country and in the meantime the jobs they want them to fill are going to be replaced by robots which work for FREE and then what we are stuck with even more people on the dole.

#SOTU
“I” 50 times.
 “My” 11 times.
“Me” 8 times.
"Me” 3 times (including one “let me be clear”).
 “As president” 2 times.

Obama's motives are sinister.  Buying votes and keeping people dependent on the government - it's the democrat way - PLUS the progressives just really, really really REALLY hate America and want to see her brought down.

When The Blaze ended switched to Megyn Kelly in time to see a Luntz panel - the Democrats loved the speech and want him to rule by fiat and the Republicans hated it.

OMG Obama plagerized a George W.Bush speech tonight - Mark Thiessenis on with Megyn Kelly - he wrote that speech and said when he read it earlier today he said "oh my God I wrote this for Bush."  Of course they switched some words around to make it bend the Democrat way, but he said it was the Bush speech, said he took a speech about opportunity and made it divisive.

Democrats want nothing less than to have Obama round up all Republicans and liquidate them.  They have become that unhinged.

It is the first step to seizing all 401ks and IRAs.

However, if that happens, I would except an insurrection.

I'm beginning to wonder.  If the Obamacare roll-out didn't bring out the torches and pitchforks....really?

I saw that. At this point, it looks like the democrats are on their own. I switched to Bing off and on because it had a graph. The Independents and Republicans were lock step throughout the entire speech. The dems weren't that enthused, either. The same happened with the after speech.

Just because I don't know where else to post this and I'm too tired to look, here is my one (of many) thought tonight.

Income Inequality? Right now and a progressively larger number, more and more people from the Baby Boomer generation are retiring. As they are no longer living off an earned income but off savings, investments, Social Security, or a combination of those, they are not considered to have an 'income' by statistical measures. Remember, politicians always lie with statistics to obfuscate reality to manipulate you. 'Income Inequality' is just the new Honey Boo Boo of the political world- a pop term to control your 'viewing'.

Don't think for a moment they would do it so overtly people would revolt.  They aren't that stupid. They are the masters of pop culture and media.

What they would do (after a few bank failures) is 'protect your retirement', 'secure your investments', 'guarantee your return on investment', and 'eliminate risk of loss'.

They are from the government and they are here to help!

Yup, the Jews thought Hitler was "just another politician".  But hey, faithfully, open the doors to your "franchise opportunity" every morning while your wife home schools.  Conservatives are just too God damned easy.  A day of protest here or there and then it's packing the tribe into the minivan and back to the grind with the self-satisfied smile of the deluded.

So not only did he take credit for all the regular Medicaid citizens in his 9 million number, they also counted the under 26 year olds who remain on mom and dads insurance... the real number is less than 2 million, but no one knows for sure because they are hiding the books from us.
