There will be nothing unexpected in tonight’s State of the Crushed Union show,to be sure. Mo money,mo money,mo money from them rich white one-percenters so Barry can give away mo free stuff that’s anything but free. Someone,probably Kevin Koffler@White House Dossier,will come up with how many times he refers to himself. I,me,my; he can’t complete a sentence without one of these nouns or possesive pronouns. Don’t try to play a drinking game to it,you wouldn’t last five minutes. I face no such danger,since I can’t bear to look at him or hear his voice. Might I suggest if you feel compelled to watch,mute the sound and as his purple lips start flapping like laundry on a clothesline,think of the sound the grownup makes in the Charlie Brown cartoons.
Sen. Joni Ernst is giving the republican response tonight,and if you think she’s not already being mocked and denigrated,you underestimate the capacity for hatred liberals harbor.
I’ve bookmarked a dozen articles on the upcoming canine and equine exhibition,which I will condense into the most succinct overview I can manage. The closest to my personal opinion is reflected is this piece by my friend at Diogenes Middle Finger:
Obama to Address Congress in Annual Manure Spread
Yes, it time again for Barack Obama’s 6th annual presidential manure spreading festival know to American as “The State of the Union” Speech. This year’s addition to history is sure to be just as mind-numbing as in past years and with even more lofty unworkable ideals and Utopian dreams Barack Obama is known for.
SOTU Bullshit Bingo enthusiasts are sure to be pleased by this year’s event with such great catchwords as “Cuba” “Taxes” and “Free”.
But we’re sure to be entertained as in past years despite the droning speech, watching Joe Biden fidget around and start chuckling for no apparent reason, and John Boehner getting that pained look on his face like he’s passing a kidney stone and wishing he could get up and go outside and light up a Marlboro. Good Times, Good Times.
Barry putting the finishing touches on his speech with his staff
Added by Grunt: And don’t forget to play the SOTU drinking game tonight! Every time Barack says ‘Cooba’ when he’s bragging about opening up relations with the most communist regime in the Western Hemisphere, take a drink!
Don’t forget PAH-kee-stahn
The Real State of Our Union: More entitlements, taxes and unemployment
Once again, the president will propose soaking the rich with higher estate, capital gains and bank taxes, while adding to entitlements for the working poor and middle class—new tax credits, higher child care allowance and more college tuition assistance.
It all sounds appealing in an economy where the top 10 percent have done quite well, while the rest struggle—but it is not that simple.
President Obama’s aim is to give Americans buyer’s remorse about electing a Republican Congress and boost a Clinton campaign for the White House emphasizing similar themes.
The president will argue the economy—and especially the rich—can afford the taxes he wants because economic growth is so strong—but that’s a fib.

Michelle Obama uses State of the Union to raise money for Dems
First the Democratic Party used Michelle Obama’s 51st birthday Saturday to raise money, and now the first lady is paying the party back.
In a new fundraising email, Obama is promoting her husband’s Tuesday State of the Union Address to ask for checks up to $2,000.
Her email, shown below, links to a fundraising page that reads, “In 2015, President Obama is fighting to protect the change we’ve made, while working to make even more. He can’t do it without

Obama Wants The Death Tax Increased to 60 Percent, More Taxes on College Savings
As the old saying goes, there are two things that are certain in life, death and taxes. Tomorrow night during his 2015 State of the Union speech, President Obama will announce that people paying taxes their entire lives just isn’t good enough. The President wants the current 40 percent death tax rate increased to 60 percent. Americans for Tax Reform breaks down the details:
Why is my death a taxable event?
Also,he wants to take money from people who saved for college to pay for people who didn’t.How is that fair?Oh,wait…..

Obama Up, GOP Down Post Election
A look at the latest survey numbers could spell trouble for a Republican Party that came out singing Kumbaya after the November elections, as Democrats, including the one in the White House continued to stay on the offensive.
Barry is at 50%,the GOP at 38%.
Obola is being given undeserved credit for the drop in energy prices and the GOP elite used the base to gain power then turned around and pissed on them.We hold our officials to a much higher standard than the democrats do.In fact,they HAVE no standards.

Former oil exec: $5-a-gallon gas on the way
The triggering mechanism will be global demand growth relative to how much capital constraint gets baked into future plans for production this year and next. If new production capital is deferred and demand growth continues at 2% or more, we’ll see capacity constraints during 2016, an election year of course, drive prices higher. Whether we reach $4 a gallon or push past, it’s too early to tell.”
We are awash in the most ideal crude oil for refining,light sweet,and Obama flat refuses to allow us to export crude.This is the only reason OPEC is still viable.They can export crude and we can’t.Their secret weapon is their Homey in the Hut.

Jane Fonda: It Hurts Me That People Think I Was Against The Soldiers In Vietnam
Another person who got where she is all on her own with no help from her famous last name,right?
Jane Fonda was met by over 50 protesters at an appearance in Fredrick, MD this weekend. Answering a question that was submitted in writing during the event, Hannoi Jane said it made her “sad” to see the protesters:
About 50 veterans, many of whom served in Vietnam, held signs saying “Forgive? Maybe. Forget? Never” and waved flags outside the theater for about two hours, occasionally booing people entering the Weinberg Center, including state Sen. Ron Young.
Veterans will hold her in the same contempt they hold Liveshot Kerry in as traitors.

Response to Joni Ernst giving State of the Union reply shows sexism alive and well
Shortly after it was announced that Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, would deliver the GOP response to Tuesday’s State of the Union address, pro-abortion group EMILY’s List sent out a press release calling Ernst “window dressing,” essentially because she doesn’t espouse liberal dogma. Essentially, because Ernst doesn’t agree with the Left on how to help women succeed (and roughly half of all women don’t), she’s anti-woman. Because in their eyes, you’re either for liberal policies or you’re for the problem.
Then there was Luke Russert, whose condescension regarding Ernst’s choice would be unimaginable had he been discussing a liberal woman.
Here’s another prole living off his father’s name.

Virginia governor hospitalized after being thrown from horse
Did the horse have stripes?
Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe was hospitalized Monday in Richmond with complications from being tossed by a horse and breaking seven ribs during a holiday trip to Africa with his family, a spokesman said.
The McAuliffe family went to Africa to visit the governor’s daughter, who works for a nonprofit, when McAuliffe was tossed by a horse in Tanzania around Christmas Day. Coy didn’t know what spooked the horse.
He was probably spooked because the rider was a bigger horses ass than he was.

I’m sure you are right about what spooked him. It is sorta encouraging that I heard today that McAuliffe’s approval rating in the state is only 44% at present. That should give the Republican legislature that convened this month a little more courage. One hopes, anyway.

Analyst: Harry Reid Most Vulnerable Democrat in 2016
Between his low approval numbers and the existence of at least one, if not more popular potential Republican challengers, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) has emerged as the most vulnerable Democrat in the upcoming election cycle
Sen. Toadface scored a historic victory in 2010 over that conservative powerhouse,Sharron Angle.Despite being the most reviled man in the state,he overcame a four point deficit on election morning to win by six.All it took was some strongarm tactics by his casino-owning bagmen on their employees,and a little creative “servicing” of the voting machines in Clark County by the SEIU.
If he faces a sure loss he’ll take the hindreds of millions he’s pocketed in illegal lobby money and payoffs from shady land deals and slither back under his rock.
