President Obama said a lot of words last night. Oh, man, did he say a lot of words. It was almost as if the people who run Ben Bernanke’s printing presses wrote the speech.
As you can see in this word cloud of his State of the Union address, he said “America” a lot. He said “Americans” a lot. He said “government,” “people,” “years”, “new”, “jobs” and “make.”
Funny thing, though. The words “debt” and “deficit” aren’t even in the top fifty.
You might even say we had a deficit deficit.

Two other missing words were "gun control" which is a good thing. Maybe he's going for the NRA vote?
Hah... I had to laugh at the thought of the NRA endorsing Obongo... like any of us 2nd Amendment defenders would ever do that!
I'll go as far as to say that you will look long & hard to find a liberal/progressive that likes the Constitution as it is. They really don't like the 1st or 2nd Amendments, would think nothing of trashing the 3rd, have zero respect for the 4th, & they don't understand the 10th, 13th, 14th & 15th. Today's left likes the concepts spelled out in the 10 pillars of communism ahead of the Bill of Rights.
I did laugh out loud several times. However, I think we can tape just one Obumbler SOTU and keep playing it over and over again.
All I could think of was "Your chocolate ration has been increased from 30 grams to 25 grams. MiniTru is green with envy over the current state of America's 'news'.
Remember when every network would air presidential addresses because they were so rare and important? This guy is on the TV just about EVERY day. God I am sick of seeing him.
Making constant speeches cheapens the man and the office. the SOTO is supposed to be a big deal because it is supposed to be revealing. A few hours isn't a big deal when barry is on the tube live 3 hours a week (and another 12 in news clips) every week for 2 years.
Played the f*ck out man.
The SOTU speech struck me as the beginning of Obama's 2012 re-election campaign. As such it was more than boring, it was depressing. This nation cannot have four more years of Obama, his ruinous economics, his czars and his politics and remain the United States.
You mean there's going to be an election in 2012? Holy sh!t you are way more optimistic than I am.
2010 was a break from 2008 and 2009. 2011 will be a return of the crisis (already happening with food riots in the ME due to dollar printing to keep us plebes placated). I'm guessing international or civil war by Nov 2012.
I think that's the whole point Elrond...yup, that's the big plan.
The speech was delivered by an empty suit and an empty head. When he praised China he showed just how FRICKING WEAK KNEED he truly is.
when exactly did he praise China? I recall the theme being that China is essentially an economic threat, and we'd better get on the ball
Hu's on first?
Here's how my son, who has all of 22 years of experience, said the speech should have gone: "Good evening. The country is still in the crapper. Good night."
That's a fine boy you got there, sir! He'll make us proud ... YOU BETCHA! OoraH! USA!!!!
Shared Responsibility = Shared Sacrifice = Redistribution = Bankruptcy = Calamity
Of course dear leader did not mention the debt! It's all going according to Uncle Saul's (Alinksy) and Aunt Frances' (Piven) plan. Next stop: global currency and trans-nationalism ... YOU BETCHA!
Was the 'O-zone Liar' on TV last night flapping his gums about unicorns & rainbows again? Huh... go figure. I was watching Star Trek on SyFy... At least you can occasionally learn something from Jon-luc Picard.
I listened to bits and pieces of O's State of the Disunion speech, well, because the rest of the time I was blowing chunks. I said bullshit over and over like ocmadam indicated and am just now able to eat solids. Didn't he just give a State of the Disunion speech last month or something?
I thought it was the State of the Union(s) Address? Just saying ...
I didn't watch Barry spout his propaganda last night. I hate it that the networks had to give up valuable airtime for it. I did catch that very short version of Hannity with Frank Luntz's focus group. All the AA's, except one, in the group were still praising Barry. When will they ever learn that Barry is only using them.
I did'nt have to watch it to know would suck, & I know he's still the same progressive/socialist/collectivist idiot he was before. Investments are just another way of saying redistribution of wealth & paying off those who back him.
