State of the Union 2011 (racist, ideology, work, foreign)

They control the grammer!

On a serious note, all of this talk about education and innovation will result in more people going in debt going to school! Great for the lenders!

What the hell was the point of this?

I'm guessing he wants our nation to invest in HSR and advanced telecommunications systems. Problem is, no one wants to pay for it.

Looking forward to Bachman's rebuttal. Will it be on the Comedy Channel??

The stock market is not the only thing that drives the American economy and you know it.

How about 9 million job losses in the last two years. Guess the stock market is the ONLY positive thing you can post about.

The stock market going up and down does not help the average American who has lost their home and living in tents.

I was thinking the same thing.

Did I hear him say he wants to lower the corporate tax rate?

Wow!

I think he is struggling.

Wanting to lower the corporate tax rate and working with the reps to find a better solution to get HC under control is a positive step.

Boehner looks like he forgot to use the bathroom before the speech.

Really, who cares what lies the teleprompter is spewing? Any of you who believe the drivel coming out of this phony's mouth must have been foolish enough to vote for him.

Surely, you are not suggesting that it was the Obama administration's policies that precipitated the 9 million job losses. And, unless you are a believer in fairy tales, you don't believe that the President has a magic wand that he can simply wave to create jobs.

The market has been going up (not up and down) for 5 months. The economy, which is reflected in the stock market, has to revive before jobs can be created and that IS happening.
