State of the Union Speech 2024

Ha...

It's impossible for me to comprehend the kind of cocktail they'll need to inject into Biden to get him to make this speech.

 

You have to figure they'll keep the number of minutes he speaks, and the number of syllables per word, to their absolute minimum.

This speech is really &#%$ing up my work week.  

 

Half of what I need to do, I can't do, because "Biden's talking, so we're in a POND. 

 

And naturally, me being me..."Is it a "deep POND," or a "shallow POND."  "Seems fishy to me."  And, of course...

 

 

One more year, and I'm out of this business.  Hopefully.

I'd reply "the side of sedition and insurrection," but I'd lose my job for failing the loyalty oath.

I'm on America's side.

Anyone made up a state of the union bingo card yet?

 

I’m hoping creepy whisper and deer-in-headlights gaze are on it.

I wonder if Biden will talk about the cuts and the Von miller restructuring

“Joe blames Trump for something” has better odds of hitting than “free square”.

Ukraine's First Lady and Alexei Navalny's
widow both turn down White House invitations
to Biden's State of the Union address

by Emily Goodin

 

Original Article

 

Olena Zelenska, Ukraine's first lady, turned down an invitation from the White House to attend Thursday's State of the Union address, dashing President Joe Biden's dreams of seating her next to Alexi Navalvny's widow in a show of force against Russia. The White House intended to place Zelenska and Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of murdered Russian opposition leader, in Jill Biden's box on the night of the president's prime time address. The plan was to use the women as powerful image against Russian President Vladimir Putin, coming at a time when Biden wants Congress to approve more aid for the Ukraine.

Instead it'll just be Zelensky. Again. In his familiar position.

Wouldn't put them past it, one to change his depends and one to do another line?

 

What do you think?

He was making a joke, but that it’s believable shows where we are right now.

Just occurred to me that there is a slight, but real, chance that Biden wanders away from the podium mid-speech.

 

And a slight, but real, chance he gets lost on his way to the podium.

 

I usually skip the speech, and just read the text the next morning.  But this could be a SOTU worth watching.
