I truly appreciate these threads. I can't honestly say that I have watched a SOTU since 9/11. I did enjoy Reagan's. I actually was going to watch last night. But then he was late as usual, for whatever reason. That's pretty disrespectful. I think it's an Obama thing. And then the parade to the podium was just too much for me. Between watching these people who are supposed to be in charge of our country taking selfies, kissing, hugging...it was just too much for me.

Besides, I'm watching a Gunsmoke-A-Thon and keeping count of how many times Matt was shot, stabbed or kidnapped, lol.

I will say that I'm glad that it appears that he didn't have a major malfunction. Not for his sake. But maybe he didn't look like a total nursing home patient to the rest of the world.



       
Well, at least Matt is usually all healed up by the next episode.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Look at this. This is an unedited photo of Joe Biden taken by a member of Congress tonight and sent to me.

It's so apparent that, since the advent of the internet, there will always be people who are triggered by this and that. What I remember, and what I compare her response to, is Marco Rubio's response, and Bobby Jindal's response, and other responses that seem to be forgettable. Those were a tad dry, IMHO. I liked Britt's response, and especially that she gave it at the kitchen table where all the issues are said to be discussed in the home -- according to the pundits. Let those who are triggered gripe all they want.

Britt roasted on social media for actorly SOTU response
by Filip Timotija - 03/08/24 11:17 AM ET

Sen. Katie Britt (R-Ala.) was widely criticized on social media for delivering what was called a melodramatic and unnatural State of the Union rebuttal Thursday night.

The first-term senator went after President Biden following his own address over his handling of the economy, the southern border, his age and a slew of other issues, but Britt herself got roasted for the 17-minute speech she delivered from her Montgomery, Ala., home.

Some observers panned the setting — having a senator deliver a major speech from a kitchen — while many others compared her a drama club student or an actor giving a bad audition.

I neither saw nor heard one single thing wrong about it.

I think she did an amazing job. Especially for being such a rookie politician.

Looks like he was having an adult diaper emergency.

I'm surprised he didn't announce from the podium that he had pooped his pants.

But he announced very clearly that his butt was wiped once.

That's one of those photo shop deals that never really happened,right?

I can't believe at this point that his handlers will even allow a reporter that isn't "in their pocket" within a mile of him.
