    Paraphrased summary: Every idea I've had is something that'll never make it through congress, so I'm just gonna hope that the working class can pull something out of their asses that will fix everything!


    There were so many things he said that just don't line up like they should. Internet and the other technologies he mentioned were not really the result of gov't backed civilian research so much as military technologies adapted for public use. He mentions these great projects we have to undertake in energy and infrastructure, but never lays out a plan for even the planning process, just more spending. Then he tops it off by saying there will be a spending freeze. Boehner (who btw got called a crybaby AGAIN) was very telling because every time Obama mentioned doing something to take money out of oil company pockets, tax the rich more, or cut back on the insurance industry's abuse of its customers he'd just give a "THAT will happen..." smirk. Worst of all, his plans are things that probably won't result in new jobs for many years. It's not like they are going to start building power plants any sooner than that.

    Didn't even bother watching. I just read this and pretty much agree with it.

    Bozo SOTU speech starting now. My prediction: big on the usual platitudes but no followup behind them.

    Just vote him in again, and vote the refaggotcans out. Watch in awe as so much shit gets done, and if it doesn't? There you go.. Proof-positive they all need to go, and since there's no way to usurp both parties from power via the voting booth... It'll be time to just end them all. No trollo. I seriously propose eliminating them if we can't just remove them.
    Disappear and ohgar like this.
