T-Rav's Sockpuppets v. Obama's STFUSOTU

The only thing worse that another debate (like the one tomorrow night) is a SOTU. Good God! Why? The union is in a lousy state. Obama is the problem. The solution is obvious. Why do we need to waste two hours listening to our incompetent president try to explain his failure? Well, here goes:


And while we're waiting lets predict some of what Obama might say tonight and what he should say instead.

I'll start. . . He'll say: "It's all Bush's fault!" He should say: "Whoops."

T-Rav said...

Who gives a #%&@? Seriously, if our domestic and foreign policy is going to Hades in a handbasket, who cares what the rest of the world thinks about it?

rlaWTX said...

why are we suffering through this?

HE proposes a defense strategy?? scary!

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, a new hope for the rebel alliance against the Empire.

Barack Hussein Obama said...

By surrendering.

rlaWTX said...

did he go from Army to SOPA? or is there something I missed?

T-Rav said...

I'm gonna slit my wrists, I'm gonna slit my wrists, I'm gonna slit my wrists.....

BevfromNYC said...

Okay, he has not been speaking for over an hour...DRINK!!!

AndrewPrice said...

SHUT UP!!!

T-Rav said...

Hey Obama, how do you feel about Bill Ayers trying to bomb our soldiers? Hmmm?

rlaWTX said...

T-Rav, put down the knife! Take a drink instead...

AndrewPrice said...

A veterans jobs core?! Why don't we put them to work suing internet pirates?

BevfromNYC said...

Does that man sitting next to Michelle have half of a mustache??

T-Rav said...

When is this idiot going to stop? Haven't we suffered enough?

rlaWTX said...

pandering to troops... ya think they buy it?

AndrewPrice said...

Orange.

tryanmax said...

Oh, I think you can learn more than one or two things from the military, you undisciplined jerkwad.

T-Rav said...

Bev, Michelle has the other half. That's what happens when you have more testosterone than your husband.

AndrewPrice said...

rlaWTX, I can't see anyone buying this tonight.

Obama said...

It's all about ME!!!!!

T-Rav said...

Uh-oh, thought we were done with the Bin Laden victory laps.

AndrewPrice said...

Wow, this is really inspiring me....


to vote Republican.

BevfromNYC said...

Oh, please, you thought about yourself Mr. President...

tryanmax said...

T-Rav, Drink!

Barack Obama said...

Instead, everyone thought about me and how they were serving me.

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, Great Warlord will never be finished trying to make himself sound like a war hero.

rlaWTX said...

Right now, Paul sounds pretty OK.

tryanmax said...

Wow, he's really drawing this out. This is a drink you take with a funnel and a hose.

BevfromNYC said...

But we don't trust you...that's the point.

T-Rav said...

Hey, it's the Elizabeth Warren campaign theme!

rlaWTX said...

We built this city... on rock and roll...

AndrewPrice said...

I thought the nation was great because the government built it?

But isn't the nation also a house of cards?

BevfromNYC said...

He must have gotten the message to cut the I and Me and go with We...

tryanmax said...

"This nation is great because we stab--er--get eachother's backs."

T-Rav said...

@%$& this man. @%$& him with a pine cone.

AndrewPrice said...

F*ck you, sir.

T-Rav said...

Andrew, maybe that means the government is a house of cards.

America said...

65 minutes of my life gonegonegonegone

tryanmax said...

Andrew, I propose that it is great because we built this nation on rock and roll.

BevfromNYC said...

Oh, no, it was just the light. He has a whole mustache...

AndrewPrice said...

Brett Baier actually just say Obama had a theme. Huh? His speech was as coherent as a phone book.

rlaWTX said...

T-Rav!!!!

LOL!!!

tryanmax said...

Okay, this wasn't supposed to be a campaign speech, but the first thing out of the NBC commentator's mouth (Chuck Todd, I think) was that this speech is launching his campaign.

T-Rav said...

Some blogger: "Obama's the guy who pretends to help you lift the couch but he's really just got his hand under it."

AndrewPrice said...

I'm seeing a lot of support for the idea that we built this nation on Rock and Rock?

But did we built if Ford Tough or Chrysler stupid?

tryanmax said...

And they are calling it "optimistic populism"

Whaddahuh?

CrisD said...

Hey, the comments section has been broken since 9:30 :(

rlaWTX said...

"best speech?" said Hillary

AndrewPrice said...

"that was the best speech"?

Wow, Hillary's a total brown noser... or orange noser as the case may be.

T-Rav said...

Andrew, that's unfair. A phone book has more structure.

A Phonebook said...

Hey! I'm alphabetical!

AndrewPrice said...

Cris, I've noticed we're having problems after we hit 200. :(

Chris Matthews said...

God, I am SO hot for Obama right now!!!

rlaWTX said...

if you comment, it goes to the next page of comments...

BevfromNYC said...

What kind of problem Andrew?

AndrewPrice said...

One way to make it work is to look at the article itself and it lets you see all the comments.

T-Rav said...

Someone please, just for one of these addresses, get Sheila Jackson Lee out of the aisle.

rlaWTX said...

Isn't Insider Trading illegal already? for everybody?

tryanmax said...

there are small "newer" and "newest" links at the bottom. you might need to use those.

AndrewPrice said...

Bev, If you just refresh, it only shows the first 200 and you can't see the rest. You either need to comment to see the rest or you need to go to the article rather than the comment page.

This is a glitch which came up the other night for the first time.

AndrewPrice said...

rlaWTX, Not for Congress. Pelosi made a fortune that way.

T-Rav said...

It was less partisan and more stupid platitudes.

tryanmax said...

Now the commentary is calling this speech a response to attacks from the Republican presidential candidates who, apparently, orchestrated the endless debate process precisely as a platform to attack 0bama from.

AndrewPrice said...

As far as his speeches go, I think this was his worst by far.

T-Rav said...

I haven't had those problems. It just flips right over to the next page for me.

BevfromNYC said...

Andrew - I saw that and went back to the main page and the comments all came back.

tryanmax said...

I'm in Firefox and it does both at different times.

Brian Williams said...

I don't know about you, Chris, but I got sexually aroused just watching Obama step up to the podium.

rlaWTX said...

whoever is talking on Fox is saying sweet things... who was that soft-voiced doofus?

tryanmax said...

Just for the record, Chuck Todd looks like a douche.

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, Hit "refresh" rather than commenting and you'll see that those disappear.


Bev, Same here.

T-Rav said...

God, what a cluster@#$%. I literally do not care who gets the Republican nomination, I will vote for whoever has an R next to their name in November.

AndrewPrice said...

Ok folks, grade the speech. What did you think?

tryanmax said...

Andrew, what comes below "F"?

T-Rav said...

tryanmax, it's not Chuck's fault, he was born that way.

tryanmax said...

With a red d-bag goatee? I think not.

AndrewPrice said...

Excellent comments from Boehner!

rlaWTX said...

T-Rav - OBO

Andrew - ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Anonymous said...

I almost wish he had come up with something new to attack. But it was just the same s--t in a slightly different package. I'll be addressing his "jobs" and "energy" policy tomorrow morning, but other than that one specific topic, I found the whole speech deadly dull.

T-Rav said...

Andrew, allow me to paraphrase Roger Ebert's summation of a really bad movie:

"This speech isn't scraping the bottom of the barrel. This speech isn't the bottom of the barrel. This speech isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This speech doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as barrels."

tryanmax said...

What did Boehner say? They aren't showing him on the channel I'm on.

AndrewPrice said...

Wow, he looks like Peyton Manning!

rlaWTX said...

didn't see Boehner either...

Obama and Tinman said...

no hearts here...

AndrewPrice said...

Boehner said Obama had given up governing last Labor Day and that negotiating with him is like negotiating with someone who has never negotiated before.

tryanmax said...

True dat!

BevfromNYC said...

Tryanmax = "incomplete" is less than an "F". Or in Obama's cases "Present"...

tryanmax said...

This is a good response.

T-Rav said...

Boehner apparently is a very perceptive man.

AndrewPrice said...

Daniels is giving a speech with excellent substance, but poor rhetoric. Too dull to catch anyone's attention.

tryanmax said...

Okay, Bev, what comes below those. I'm not even certain I'd give him a "present" for that disaster of a speech.

T-Rav said...

This is a good response. Not great, but good.

AndrewPrice said...

I hope they show Cain's response.

tryanmax said...

Yes, he is a dull speaker. Why did they pick him?

AndrewPrice said...

tryanmax, "Metaphysical Failure."

T-Rav said...

tryanmax, I'd go with just plain zero. Or maybe a negative number.

AndrewPrice said...

Honestly, Romney's more exciting.

tryanmax said...

Okay, that's the one I pick. Or "MF" for short.

tryanmax said...

Andrew, I was thinking the same thing about Romney.

T-Rav said...

Maybe Paul Ryan will be so disgusted after tonight that he'll jump into the race. #Wishful Thinking

AndrewPrice said...

Come on people... short, simple, lots of vision, short on details, speak to the viewer as a friend.

How hard is it write one of these speeches?

tryanmax said...

T-Rav, I always spell "0bama" with a zero. But after tonight, I might have to switch to "-bama"

AndrewPrice said...

tryanmax, ROFLMAO -- "MF"!

T-Rav said...

Hey tryanmax, you could give an "MF" grade to Obama! It could mean "Metaphysical Failure"--or maybe something else.

AndrewPrice said...

T-Rav, I WISH that were true.

tryanmax said...

Okay, the longer this response goes, the worse it seems. He says good things that I agree with, but it's like listening to Stephen Hawking, only with less inflection.

rlaWTX said...

KISS - are anyone other than wonks still listening?

T-Rav said...

"Republicans are the only ones who have passed such bills"--okay, glad he included that.

AndrewPrice said...

Daniels should be seen and not heard... and not really seen.


This was probably a good thing to dampen down the "replace Romney with Daniels" group.

I guess that makes it Jeb Bush's turn.

// shoots self

rlaWTX said...

some good points... Yawn...

rlaWTX said...

OK that was funny

AndrewPrice said...

rlaWTX, I'm getting a kick out of your avatar! LOL!

tryanmax said...

I'm trying to imagine Reagan delivering these words. He would have probably said the same stuff, but it would have sounded much much much better.

Mitch Daniels said...

Please turn to page 72 in your manual. Notice the graph on equity rates.

T-Rav said...

I think the epithets against Republicans as "the stupid party" might actually be true--though not in the way they mean. All that talent, and we wound up with those four nimrods as candidates. I'm getting my mallet.

AndrewPrice said...

tryanmax, I don't think Reagan would have used these words in this order. His speech writer should be shot... and the body smacked around.

tryanmax said...

I'm liking the new Mitch Daniels sockpuppet.

T-Rav said...

rla, just tell me this one thing: Is the kitty all right?

AndrewPrice said...

Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman! Herman!

We want Herman!

tryanmax said...

Yes, it would have been better written, but even in that shambling state, Reagan could've breathed live into it.

BevfromNYC said...

There's got to be more dynamic speakers in the Republican Party?!!

tryanmax said...

I'm done with mallets. I'm moving on to ball peen hammers.

AndrewPrice said...

Brett Bair just gave a better version of Daniels' speech than Daniels did.

T-Rav said...

Nate Silver on Twitter: Daniels could unite the Jon Huntsman and Tim Pawlenty coalitions into an unstoppable 7% of the Republican vote

T-Rav said...

Is Krauthammer on crack? I mean, come on!

rlaWTX said...

LOL! yes, Cat couldn't take the stupidity or my frustration and went to another room...

tryanmax said...

Ben Stein will play Mitch Daniels in the movie.

AndrewPrice said...

Krauthammer is smoking crack. He just called this one of the best speeches ever and said he heard "sighs from Republicans all over the country."

Yeah, Charles, but they were sighs of despair.

BevfromNYC said...

Does anyone know on what channel Cain is on?

AndrewPrice said...

Well written? Funny? Direct? Impressive?

W...T...F...

rlaWTX said...

bone-a fid-i-as?

same as bona fides? have I been saying it wrong all this time or is she just snooty? (on Fox)

AndrewPrice said...

He's not on Fox. They're doing commercials, which are surprisingly entertaining compared to what we just witnessed.

T-Rav said...

Bev, I don't think he's on yet. I just checked CNN and MSNBC.

tryanmax said...

quoi?

AndrewPrice said...

rlaWTX, She's snooty... and stupid.

T-Rav said...

Well, crap, apparently he's on somewhere, I just can't figure out where.

AndrewPrice said...

"A.B. Stoddard"? That IS a snooty name.

T-Rav said...

Well, she does work for The Hill.

AndrewPrice said...

Fox isn't having it. It doesn't look like CNN is having it either.

rlaWTX said...

only place I know for sure is on his website: http://www.cainconnections.com/

AndrewPrice said...

I don't see it anywhere.

tryanmax said...

http://cainconnections.com/

AndrewPrice said...

Here's the link

Cain

T-Rav said...

Screw it, I just flipped over to "The Big Bang Theory." And I don't even like "The Big Bang Theory." Someone help us.

tryanmax said...

"with all due respect, the American people aren't stupid" Yes!

BevfromNYC said...

Thanks Tryanmax - it's being streamed.

T-Rav said...

My thanks to all the GOPers who pushed Cain out of the race. Great job.

tryanmax said...

T-Rav, I blame the alleged conservative media, too.

tryanmax said...

"We deserve a balanced budget. Period."

AndrewPrice said...

This man should be president, not the pretender in office.

rlaWTX said...

here too...?
http://video.foxnews.com/video-live-streaming.html?video_id=1155606214001

T-Rav said...

Anyone watch "White Collar" on USA? It's pretty good most of the time.

AndrewPrice said...

Nice... "stop the blame game!"

Barack Hussein Obama said...

No! I can't stop! I don't know how!

rlaWTX said...

DVR'ing White Collar for all of this fun...

AndrewPrice said...

"we must remind them"

"we the people are coming"

awesome!

T-Rav said...

Yay Cain!

AndrewPrice said...

Bravo!

tryanmax said...

"We want our power back."

That could be a slogan for domestic drilling.

AndrewPrice said...

Ok, I'm outta here. I am more convinced than ever that our country is doomed by idiocy.

T-Rav said...

It would help if the reporters had mics.

BevfromNYC said...

Yes Mr. Cain!!

AndrewPrice said...

Good night all!

tryanmax said...

'night, Andrew.

rlaWTX said...

Adios, Andrew...

T-Rav said...

Yep, we're all screwed. Thanks, spineless Republicans.

rla, tell me how White Collar went.

BevfromNYC said...

I'm out of here too! Power to the People!!

tryanmax said...

Exactly! -bama is in denial if he thinks the state of the union is anything but rotten.

rlaWTX said...

I miss Herman Cain... he has a good preacher voice and inflection and ideas!

tryanmax said...

Yep, Obama's speech was nothing but contradictions.

tryanmax said...

Good reminder about down ticket candidates.

rlaWTX said...

T - yep, good points

he's on point about dirty media politics...

tryanmax said...

Wow! That was a really great statement of unity. Or maybe I'm just not used to hearing such statements. Either way, I like it.

tryanmax said...

Applause!

tryanmax said...

alright. G'night all.

darski said...

I'm just curious about why I can't see all the comments. Is there a secret handshake I don't know about.

I keep coming back in hopes the update will kick in some time.

AndrewPrice said...

darski, I don't know if you're getting comments by e-mail, but there is a glitch to see all the comments, you need hit the title to the article and not the word "comments."

This seems to be happening whenever we get above 200 comments.

AndrewPrice said...

or you can post a comment and then they should all show up.
