Politics The State of Our Union Is _________ ?

The White House / Pete Souza

It's that time again. The president will be speaking to Congress tomorrow evening. How should he finish that sentence?

He's addressing the nation, sure, but more importantly, he's addressing Congress directly. I'd like to see him say, "The state of our Union is weak," and then follow up with a litany of how Republican political strategies, panderings, and doctrine are ruining America and crippling our future.

Fucking lay it out there already, Barry!

Where is the morning news? I have a Pope joke I want to make, and I don't have all day to wait.

Great. We have work to do but the country is moving in the right direction. If Congress would give him some help, we'd move faster in the right direction.

"The state of our union is schlong."

It's juvenile, I know, but I've always wanted a president to say that.

The State of the Union obviously has something to do with al Qaeda on Wall Street -- time something was done about them!

Obviously, the Wall Street puppet in the Oval Office would never say that....
