Democrat behavior at State of the Union

[BULLDOG]

It was fun to watch how the dems remained seated at inappropriate times at the last SOTU, as a way to express their hatred for the guy who beat them in 2016. Their behavior was shameful, but I bet they come up with a new plan this time to demonstrate their hate. I predict that they come up with an even less classy and less American way to show their hate this time. Their mission at the SOTU will be something more juvenile than ever before.

Please explain exactly why and when remaining seated would be "inappropriate" and/or could be considered "classless." All I've seen is a picture of three members of Congress dressed in white, two facing forward and one looking down at something, and Schumer sitting with a bemused expression on his face. Should they have gotten up and danced or stood up and cheered wildly?

Also, please learn how to spell "Democratic." I know that grammar can be difficult, but give it a try.

This shows the problem with waiting for cnn to tell you what happened and what to think.

Who waits for CNN to do anything? All I saw was people sitting, being quiet. You are the one who is asserting that they did something "inappropriate," and you fail to explain your assertion. Why would you think that I am dependent on CNN? All that CNN has to do is get the facts straight, refrain from taking things out of context, and retract anything it gets wrong. Simple. Otherwise, me, and other people, do our own thinking.

The right-winger myth that we are all dependent on "the media" is so incredibly ignorant. They are the ones who take seriously outlets like Infowars, Breitbart, Gateway Pundit, and right-wing broadcasters spouting made-up drivel.

If you hadn't been relying on cnn, you would have seen the dems staying seated when everybody else stood for american victories and accomplishments.

You aren't very smart, are you?

There has been along history of the opposing party refusing to stand or applaud at the SOTU. Both parties have done that. The GOP drastically lowered the bar for SOTU behavior by shouting at the president during his speech. I hope the Democratic party doesn't follow that bad behavior, but with the way Trump has turned politics into a childish playground competition, there is certainly precedent if they do behave like Trump supporters.

I clearly remember the democrats actually booing, especially Hillery Clinton. Now there's a woman with a lot of class. Class of the democratic variety, just like mud wrestling.

What do you expect after trump lowered the bar to childhood bully standards, and then told such a blatantly obvious lie at the SOTU

You were smart to stay away from comparing which party sat out which comments and just going with a video that suggests that both parties have sat out comments in protest. As you may have noticed in my opening post, I kept it to "appropriate times", so it wasn't about if one party sits out comments and the other doesn't. On that note, my opening posts is not even about sitting out comments, it is about my prediction that lefty behavior will be even more inappropriate than usual. I am already seeing stuff on the internet about some lefties completely boycotting the SOTU, so my prediction is already coming true.

So how do you determine when is appropriate and when is not?

...I might watch it tonight for entertainment value...

This says a whole lot more than you might realize. One should not be watching the SOTU for entertainment value, he should be watching it to be well informed. In our current political climate, we simply cannot know the truth about what is really going on, so we are stuck triangulating the "most likely" truth from a broad range of news, propaganda, and biased reporting. None of the news, biased reporting, or propaganda is trustworthy, regardless of which side of the aisle it represents, and all we can do is sort through all of it to find clues about what the truth might be. Live coverage where we can hear what the president himself is saying is FAR better than hearing the what the media says he said. I didn't like Bush or Obama, but I sure watched as much as I could of everything they said. If you think the SOTU is just entertainment, go ahead and sit it out. Remember that self imposed ignorance is much worse than just being ignorant.

The Prog Representatives are the biggest babies ever. The women are the worse. With their stupid same color dresses to the vacant and crazy looks on their faces. Making a statement is fine. But it is like a record with a scratch that plays the same thing over and over. They are just that good. And they don't leave. Its perma rep. A lifetime job that was only supposed to be a decade or so at most.

If Trump wants more approval from the other side of the isle, he should quit being such a childish ass hole.

Frankly, I'd be shocked if many of them don't boycott the event and don't even show up this time!

A GOP Congressman yelled 'You lie' during an Obama SOTU. That had never been done before to any President. If a Dem yelled that every time Trump lied the SOTU would take days.

Well, CONGRATULATIONS. As always, the Democrats have just set a new bar once again far below that of any legitimate, functional political party.

Yep, they WERE awful, weren't they? Did you catch the part where the idiots started shouting something when Trump was speaking? I didn't catch WHAT they were shouting. Trump handled it very well, he just kept talking OVER their shouts. The Dems really ARE a miserable bunch, aren't they?

Did you see the republican bobble-heads? Up and down. Up and down. It's amazing that these freaks didn't sink to their knees in adoration of the whore and break out into the Hosanna. Is this what you wanted Democrats to do?

You aren’t going to get “the truth” from the State of the Union. It is a mix, but mostly it is political and a chance for the president to lay out what he thinks are his accomplishments.

I JUST LOVE IT when I see democrats sick green with envy at Trump's popularity. It's the Left's admission they haven't that following nor popularity among anyone even if they combined their top six candidates together and then exaggerated it further in the morning paper.

The democrat's ENTIRE CAMPAIGN is based on ONE ISSUE: their hate for Trump. Vote for us to get Donald out of office.

The public remembers full well they've fallen for that schrek before and only ended up with something worse than what they thought they were getting rid of.
