I popped my first anti-nausea pill before the SOTU started. Who remembers the poisonous viper, Pelosi, sitting behind President Trump, making puke faces as the President spoke? Tonight, the viper looks oh-so happy, smiling at the world, as she awaits her fair-haired boy's arrival.
Sleepy Joe spends ten minutes telling us how he has united the US, UK, and Europe. Lies - he promised to unite Europe, but Putin actually united Europe and NATO.
"Created 6.5 million new jobs last year . . . " So, uhhhhh, how does that compare to the job situation before the Wuhan Flu escaped the laboratory?
Close up of Pete Buttplug bobble head figure . . . he's enjoying Biden bragging about 'Build back better'. Poisonous lead pipes? Hmmmm - isn't that a Democrat run city problem? Thinking . . .
"Buy American"? Ohhhhh - kay. I'll be watching. Is Hunter still in China, collecting big bucks for access to the President?
Intel's 'Field of Dreams'? Mmmm-hmmm. Computer chips the size of a fingernail? So Intel is going backward 20 years?
"Time to bury the term 'rust belt' and Joe begins stammering. Let's see how bad that gets.
'Lower your costs, not your wages' - so he's trying to roll back last year's faux pas.
Cut the cost of prescription drugs? I need to double check, but I thought Biden shot down laws allowing Americans to order drugs from overseas? Yeah, drugs that cost $1 overseas, cost $100 or more here. WHY?!?!?!
Now a closeup of the AOC bobblehead.
Joe talking about 'cost of child care'. Didn't Obama make a speech about "We don't want mothers to stay home, we want you working!" Duhhh - why does child care cost so much? It has nothing to do with the fact that women can't afford to stay home.
'Make corporations and wealthy Americans pay their fair share' - and every socialist smiles, stands up and applauds - nevermind the fact that most of them are fabulously wealthy compared to the average middle class American. Even Pelosi smiled - and she is as guilty as any congress critter in Washington.
'The watchdogs are back', but who is watching Hunter Biden?
Biden cares about farmers and ranchers - oh yeah, I remember last year. He offered subsidies to hunters and ranchers who are black but none to white. No, he doesn't care about farmers and ranchers, he cares about identity politics.
CDC issued new mask guidelines, all because Biden personally got the virus under control . . . using the vaccines developed under Trump's administration. "I've ordered more pills than anyone in the world". Biden personally developed those pills, I'm swooning with admiration! /sarcasm
"It's time to get back to business"? Thinking - haven't Republicans been saying that for well over a year? Biden finally gets onboard with Republicans? Take those masks off, and get back in class!!
"Can't build a wall high enough" to keep a virus out - and he kinda stumbled again. Train of thought broke, but he recovered well enough. Where is his teleprompter hidden?
Oh - oh - big city violence - he's building up to it - he knows what works - body cams - still waiting for it - breaking the circle of violence - fund the police - still waiting - GUN TRAFFIKING - GHOST GUNS - GUN VIOLENCE - YADA YADA YADA - ASSAULT WEAPONS HOLDING 100 ROUNDS - GUN MANUFACTURERS CAN'T BE SUED - HOW DOES A KNOWN TERRORIST GET A GUN
Bring it on Joe, keep repeating all the lies. Don't let up now - oh, you've run out of lies? Damn, maybe it's time for a nap, you forgot UNIVERSAL BACKGROUND CHECK!!!
Katanji Brown Jackson - I won't comment on her, I haven't bothered to check her background. I do resent the fact that he nominated her just because she is a black female. That is his selling point, not her past decisions.
Secure the border? What happened to 'Surge the Border', Joe? You great hypocritical shit!
Roe v Wade? The US constitution doesn't enumerate the right to kill an inconvenient human life. If it does, then we can't condemn Putin, can we?
Beat the opioid epidemic? Better secure the god-damned border, Joe!! BUILD THAT WALL!
Take on mental health? Well, Democrats generally do drive Americans crazy - defund the police, right? Ooops, now you suddenly want to fund the police.
Privacy protections? Children? What about all the rest of us? Outlaw targeted advertising, period - not just for children.
Support our veterans? Just fuck off. Your Democrats are attacking all kinds of veterans. You hate white, male, heterosexual, Christian soldiers, sailors, and veterans. Ohhhhhhh - Major Joe Biden. You don't know if his service contributed to his brain cancer, but you want to suck up the sympathy . . . but we don't politicize our veterans, do we Joe?
Cancer. MRNA vaccines might do it. But, then you'll have to say goodbye to the DNC . . .
Closeup of Debbie Wasserman Schultz bobblehead, the corrupt head of the DNC that cut Bernie off at the knees - twice.
My fellow Americans, tonight, let me express my contempt for Joe and his whole DNC. Save democracy? Yeah, right.
Good night, Joe.

We can do more than "say" here. You note earlier that Putin has been "backed into a corner". Well, the thing to realize here is that no matter we try to appease Putin, we can't get him out of that corner because it's an internal problem, not an external one.
No matter how many countries we let Putin invade, he'll still be a murderous, lying thug with growing unrest at home because he's a murderous, lying thug. It's not our doing, but Putin himself. And that's why Putin is proving you wrong so often.
The best we can do is contain Russia until they replace Putin. That's what NATO is for.
Since when have those possibly legitimate grievances justified invasion and the vast human suffering it causes? As I noted before, you had plenty of time to tell us about these grievances. But instead you babble about a small number of Ukrainian Nazis, Russia not being invited to the NATO club (which continues to exist precisely because Russia remains a bad actor), or small scale instances of ethnic discrimination in the Ukraine. None of which is Russia's business much less a legitimate grievance.

Had to read that again. I thought for a moment you were turning on the US Military Industrial Complex.

You couldn't be more wrong. The MIC makes it their business to cause wars, and to keep wars going, so that they can sell more weapons.
What, you don't think the Koch family and George Soros are invested in arms sales?

So you didn't actually know when you made that claim? And really what about the actions of those billionaires would sell more arms? It seems to me that the only person in this thread who is pumping arms sales is Putin. And he may well have a larger investment in the Russian arms industry than Soros and the Koch family put together. Nobody out here knows what Putin actually owns.
