Washington is sick and broken—and it can solve all our problems.
When you watch a president give a State of the Union Address on television,you’re always watching three people:the president at the podium,and the vice president and House speaker on the rise behind him.
As a TV shot it’s awkward. The vice president and the speaker have been instructed by media professionals not to let their eyes do what they want to do,which is survey the doings in the chamber. Instead they must stare unwaveringly at the back of the president’s head. This is so that they appear to be fascinated by what he’s saying,as if he’s so interesting that they can’t take their eyes off him. It’s also so that you,the viewer,don’t become distracted by wondering whom they’re looking at in the audience.
It’s uncomfortable for them,and boring. You,as a member of the TV audience,get to watch the president. The speaker and the vice president get to think,“Huh,he’s getting a little gray in the back.”The reason Nancy Pelosi often seems a little dart-eyed in these circumstances is that she’s always trying to get a look at the chamber when she thinks the camera isn’t on her. Joe Biden seems happy to be the fascinated person with crinkly eyes and shining teeth. But for Mrs. Pelosi it’s a challenge. This is her chamber,all her people are here,and she wants to be looking at John Boehner’s face and Harry Reid’s and see who’s cheering and who’s wearing what.
But the three-shot the other night was also the president’s problem. It underscored that he gave the first year of his presidency to the Democrats of Congress,that they wrote the costly and unpopular health-care and spending bills.
There is not enough space to list all of the lies told by the Messiah.
IMPEACH OBAMA IN 2010

You have a good idea.
I don't beleive a word that comes out of Obamsa mouth. Joe Biden looked bored to death and Nancy Poliski acted like a robot that was made to sit and rise. So you see the state of the union address was not impressive at all to me . I am by far not the only one who felt like that.
I believe that Obama was picked by the Chicago Machine because he's black ( only half black) so that he can use the "Race card"when ever it is needed.He's a evil,corrupt and dangeous person and he scares me to death. He doesn't have a clue how to run a country. Just look at who he hangs out with…its hard to know who is more corrupt…him or his buddies. I hate these people and the rest of us GOOD AMERICANS are sick of him and believe nothing of what he says. Lets impeach him and his buddies. So then America will be back to the greatest country in the world. Micki

Well let's pray that someone will stand up and take a look at this. We The People should be allowed to know who is running or should I say ruining the country.
I thought the big laugh was Biden The Bobble Head. Everything O said he shook his head up and down. However,Pelosi was equally funny looking like she was on some puppeteirs string jumping up and down every five minutes. What a joke. There were a couple of good things,if he isn't BSing again,drill off shore,but whose shores? and then Nuclear Reactors for energy. Quite a change from his campaign. However,probably mostly BS to throw us all off
obama pelosi reid joe are all alike we need to tar and feather them all and send all to kenya where obama was borned maybe they might take them all
IMPEACH NOW NOT 2012 THAT WILL BE TO LATE
I look behind O and see his assasination insurance policy. No one in their right mind would want Biden as president,and if Numb-Nancy was president,everyone would move to New Zealand. It's a win-win situation.
