Do you watch the State of the Union Address

[Harpy Eagle]

So, do people still watch these things?

I am pretty sure the last one I sat through was Reagan.

won't be watching this one, listening to Biden lie and the dems cheer his lies does not interest me in the least. I may watch Sarah give the GOP response, but probably not.

Holy crap no. The speech is insulting, as is the response. The party or parties we're talking about are irrelevant.

Did listening to Trump lie and the GOP cheer his lies interest you?

Political theater is a waste of time

what lies did he tell at his SOTU speeches? give us a list or STFU.

 

[JoeMoma]

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. I usually get the highlights from the talking heads (both sides) either way.

1. What Trump lies?
2. Seeing Nancy tear up the speech was the best part.
3. I hope McCarthy rips up pedo Joe's speech

true, but back when we actually had a functioning government the SOTU speeches were actually SOTU speeches. Now we are so divided that everything is propaganda from one side or the other.

 

[Woodznutz]

I know what the "state of the union" is already.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Unless Biden is going to clutch his chest and collapse as his eyes roll back, I don't want to see it.

You know that'll be called "fake news".

The orange con man only tells Da Troof.

Wash post???????????????????? yeah, sure that's accurate. Are you a fricken loon? plus you can't read the shit without buying a subscription, no thanks.

2. Seeing Nancy tear up the speech was the best part.

Actually the best part was republican reaction. And their claim that as a "presidential paper" that Nancy wasn't allowed to rip it up, and was required to turn her copy over to the National Archives.

In light of how Trump treated his presidential papers, we can see what a joke republicans are.

Never listen to the State of the Union ... it's always over-inflated with optimism from the controlling party, full of baseless promises and used to garner short-term political points. Supporting parties will clap regardless of the claim and opposing parties the opposite. The president typically gets a short-term bump and then it's back to business as usual.

Not in ages

I know these people.

Not usually but if there's a good "play by play" thread on another forum I might follow along for the lutz.

Sadly this site's efforts in that regard are boring as fuck. Let's face it, the SOTU should be viewed as entertainment to be poked fun at, nothing more.....The internet equivalent of throwing cabbage and tomatoes at the putz on stage.

Sigh.....I've no wish to have to scroll though a bunch of breathless run-on sentence leftist tripe to get to the rare nugget of humor.
