SOTU

By Creature

So the president generally played to the right last night, I'm not going to bitch about that. Politically speaking, he's putting Republicans in a box and that's a good thing. Otherwise, I liked that he called out the Supreme Court directly (and Alito should be ashamed of his response), that he took the Republicans to task over their obstructionism and that he defended his policies without sounding defensive. He was feisty, yet personable at the same time.

Will the speech help get things done? Probably not. But with the striking optics of a petulant GOP sitting on their hands, it should help remind the American people who the bad guys are.

    Good stuff ... Yeah, doubtful much will get done moving forward ... As I Tweeted and Facebooked last night;

    "New job for Obama Jobs Program - Someone to kick him in the head everytime he thinks Republicans will help him"

    Oh well ...
    Peace
