With the couple of billion in subsidies he plans on taking away from the oil industry that comes out to fractions of a penny on gallon of gas.

On a serious a note I'd agree with it but hardly worth mentioning it....

It was a rebuttal.

He showed how Obamas ideas have not worked and will not work and how the reps have already shown us all they mean business and are going to get things done.

He was totally professional and to the point.

He showed you how they plan to fix the crazy wasteful spending and clean up the mess from the last couple of years.

He's just saying random things and people are clapping.

What the hell was the point of this?
Was he talking too fast for you, do the speakers on FOX speak s l o w e r ?

It's a general direction for the country for the next year.
I heard most of it on the radio as I drove home.

Words are nice but actions are what counts.
We'll have to wait and see if the words said tonight match up to the actions throughout the year.

If Boehner is doing the work of the people, how does he have such a good tan in January? You can see it in his eyes....you know he is thinking I need a drink and a smoke.
And foremost, what am I doing here

High speed rail should be a local and state issue.
It was a local issue....in Florida. From Central Florida to Miami.

Looks like Boehner gave up on orange and is going for a nice rustic bronze finish now.
