Title: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Joe Biden 2020 on January 19, 2012, 10:21:35 AM I don't know if this belongs here or in General Discussion, but the 2012 SOTU address to a joint session of Congress will air at 9:00 pm EST on Tuesday, January 24, 2012 from the House Chamber.
What will the rhetoric be in this address. What new bright ideas will he come up with? Also, will this be President Obama's final SOTU or will he be granted 4 more? Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Oakvale on January 19, 2012, 10:31:36 AM Obama will announce he's appointing Rick Perry as Secretary of Being A Bro, while making Mitt Romney ambassador to Utah.

I can't stand watching Obama speak, though. Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: HST1948 on January 19, 2012, 12:13:25 PM Mitch Daniels will deliver the GOP response. Damn, I usually like to get drunk while I watch the SOTU, but now I'm going to have to drink lots of coffee just to stay awake through Daniels response.

Damn, I usually like to get drunk while I watch the SOTU, but now I'm going to have to drink lots of coffee just to stay awake through Daniels response. At least it'll just be dull, not awkward and creepy like, oh, say, Bobby Jindal's. Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Lief 🗽 on January 19, 2012, 01:08:07 PM The GOP really need to get Christie or Rubio to be doing these things. Not boring, going-nowhere policy wonks.

Fortunately he has four more of these.

Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Roemerista on January 19, 2012, 04:13:16 PM It would be quite awesome if my man Mitch used this to launch a super late entry. A man can dream.
Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Politico on January 19, 2012, 04:45:43 PM Whatever he says, it's almost surely going to be out of touch with reality and therefore will make good material for anti-Obama ads.

Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Oakvale on January 19, 2012, 06:14:27 PM If he endorses school uniforms, he might as well just not run again. Is this a pressing political issue? Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Bandit3 the Worker on January 19, 2012, 06:16:45 PM If he endorses school uniforms, he might as well just not run again. Is this a pressing political issue? Clinton apparently thought it was. Title: Re: 2012 State of the Union Address Post by: Politico on January 19, 2012, 06:32:32 PM If he endorses school uniforms, he might as well just not run again. Yeah, it would be hilarious to see him go all-out-Clinton and just give a laundry list of absurd (yet pointless/harmless and therefore uncontroversial) initiatives.

Will Obama bring that up?

The Governor later quipped "I couldn't read a teleprompter."

Quote Obama warns left: You won't like budget Top White House officials are warning liberal and labor leaders to brace themselves for President Obama’s budget proposal. In his first three years, Obama had a free hand to suggest spending levels for government programs in his annual budget blueprint. But that is not the case this year because the administration is constrained by the budget deal reached in August to raise the debt limit. He must stick to the $1.047 trillion spending cap he agreed to with GOP leaders, which means he will call for less discretionary spending than he did last year. Senior administration officials fear a backlash from the left and are trying to prepare their allies to expect a disappointing budget, sources say. win teh futurez~!@ 2.0 |
