Everybody who calls themselves a reporter,columnist,pundit or strategist has an opinion on last nights pile of manure. I have read so many articles and opinion pieces my eyes began to water. I’ll try to do the best I can to make this post as entertaining as possible. After all,that’s what you pay me for. I’m including a lot of videos for your viewing pleasure.
An Instantly Forgettable State of the Union Address
President Obama delivered an unremarkable speech tonight in which he advocated a number of small-ball initiatives, several of which were repeats from previous years. Virtually nothing in the address was memorable, with one significant exception.

Remember That Army Ranger From Tuesday’s SOTU? An NBC News Editor Thinks His Story ‘Could Apply’ to Obama (UPDATED)
NBC News’ Mark Murray on Wednesday said that the story of a wounded veteran’s struggle to recover from a savage IED blast “could apply” to President Obama.
“Nothing in [President Obama’s] seven years on the national political stage (2007-2014) has come easy,” NBC News’ senior political editor wrote in an article titled
this is so sickening I almost threw up my meatball sub.No wonder nobody watches network news anymore.

Obama’s High School Pot Dealer Bludgeoned to Death by Gay Lover
THIS IS NOT A JOKE
President Obama’s high school pot dealer who he thanked in his yearbook for the ‘good times’ was beaten to death by his lover after a series of fights over flatulence and drugs, MailOnline can reveal today.
Raymond Boyer, known as ‘Gay Ray’ to Obama and his marijuana smoking ‘Choom Gang’, was bludgeoned to death with a hammer seven years after he sold the future president and his friends drugs.
Obama today signed an executive order mandating all hammers must be registered and licensed.

Good evening from the wilds of Oklahoma.
Two things I thought y’all might like to see, if they haven’t been covered already (Alas 😦 I think I’ve maybe missed some chunks of PoliNation lately.)
Thing 1:
ask.metafilter.com Dying of cancer, gramma scribbled twenty note cards with inscrutible code. Grandchild thought to crowd-source it to ask.metafilter and…
“Holy cow! 14 minutes to solve the back of the card that has been bugging my family for 20 years! That is amazing!”
And Gramma’s secret is amazing.

Thing 2, finally: 🙂
Here in Oklahoma, State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-Broken Arrow, next to Tulsa), filed legislation he’s calling the [b]”Piers Morgan Constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms Without Infringement Act.”[/b] Good article about him and the proposed bill at KJRH.
Some good reading is Dahm’s bio at OKSenate.gov: Raised by Baptist missionary family, for starters. “As a Constitutional Conservative, Nathan draws heavily from his experiences in the formerly communist — and currently socialist — nation of Romania to inform people of the failures, perils, and evils of socialism. Nathan is one of the few home-school graduates to ever serve in the Senate, and is currently the youngest member in the Oklahoma Senate.”
Imagine I posted a picture of Dahm’s smiling face here.
So, the Limey tweeted a dare for the Okie to come on his show, “if you have the guts.” 🙄
Dahm accepted, and he debated (if you can call it that) Pier Smorgan on Monday night,
YouTube link to short clip from the show for those with low threshhold of tolerance for the likes of Piers — we had to watch it in small does:
There’s about 100 copies of the whole debate on YouTube now. Here’s what appears to be about the oldest one.

“As a combat veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, I understand the importance of knowing that America leaves no one behind. I am honored to host the father of a true hero.”

Weird, but very nice thing just happened … a graphic I made years ago popped up on my Facebook wall as a share from another site. I think it was part of my old Webshots Site Bites collection, but that went defunct more than a year ago, after Webshots sold itself to somebody that switched it to cloud storage, which I didn’t want. I wonder how long ago that graphic got copy/pasted/posted somewhere else and started floating around the net. Fun little “Atta, Girl” for me, you know?
