Obama in no rush for State of Union
By Stephen Dinan, Washington Times
Obama is delaying the State of the Union
The State of the Union address may be going the way of the NFL’s Super Bowl, another January tradition that has become a February fixture.
No date has been set for the president’s annual address to Congress, but with Democrats hoping for a health care bill in hand first, the affair could be pushed until the first week in February or later — marking the latest date for a standard address in modern history.
"Soon" was the short answer that White House press secretary Robert Gibbs gave reporters last week, though he helpfully ruled out Feb. 2, the Tuesday that ABC is supposed to air the final season premiere of its show "Lost."
"I don’t foresee a scenario in which millions of people who hope to finally get some conclusion with ‘Lost’ are pre-empted by the president," he assured ABC’s reporters at his daily briefing.
