  1. Oh, come on here, congresswoman!

    Joe Biden was singing your exact tune the other night with his SOTU, the transcript of which I am going through, word for word:

    President Biden’s State of the Union Address

    President Roosevelt’s purpose was to wake up Congress and alert the American people that this was no ordinary time.

    Freedom and democracy were under assault in the world.

    Tonight, I come to the same chamber to address the nation.

    Now it’s we who face an unprecedented moment in the history of the Union.

    And, yes, my purpose tonight is to wake up the Congress and alert the American people that this is no ordinary moment either.

    Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault at home as they are today.

    What makes our moment rare is that freedom and democracy are under attack at — both at home and overseas at the very same time.

    Overseas, Putin of Russia is on the march, invading Ukraine and sowing chaos throughout Europe and beyond.

    If anybody in this room thinks Putin will stop at Ukraine, I assure you: He will not.

    Joe sounds as hysterical there, and delusional, as does congresswoman Kiggans when she gets going about making all our many enemies fear us.

  2. Then why is it that more Democrats are being elected on local and national levels ? I keep hearing the country is being divided but again I see people voting Democratic. Is all of it rigged or is the hype to keep everyone at odds and scared being promoted by both parties? If you keep them fighting each other , You keep them confused, and concord !

    1. Bob: Is all of it rigged or is the hype to keep everyone at odds and scared being promoted by both parties?

      ME: Of course it is.

      They are like competing NFL teams using the same rulebook, or two competing NASCAR teams using the same rule book, and the book used by both DEMOCRATS (one side of a coin) and REPUBLICANS (the obverse) in the game of thrones such are politics is chock full of every time-tested dirty, rotten, slimy, underhanded, unsavory political trick there is, and both teams know that in this game, the more scared, uncertain and afraid people, the easier they are to control, and so the goal is to make the opponent seem more scary than you are, while the opponent does the same.

      Circa 1930’s:

      “Under democracy one party always devotes its chief energies to trying to prove that the other party is unfit to rule — and both commonly succeed, and are right.”

      ― H. L. Mencken, Minority Report

  3. Congresswoman Jen Kiggans (VA-02) released the following statement in response to President Biden’s State of the Union address:

    “Last night, President Biden stood before Congress, the American people, and the world to give his State of the Union address.”

    “Like millions of Americans, I had many questions heading into last night.”

    “Unfortunately, we didn’t get the answers we were looking for, and instead got a dishonest political stump speech that further divided our country.

    A dishonest stump speech?

    From Joe Biden?

    Who’d a thought old Joe had it in him to turn the state of the union address into a cheap, dishonest stump speech, besides everybody in America, the world, the galaxy and the universe.

    As for me, I wasted several hours yesterday going through, word for word for word, the transcript of Joe Biden’s supposed state of the union address, which transcript in reality was nothing more than the script for a cheap, ignorant, poorly-written melodramatic production like a religion revivalist meeting, with singers in the background singing out Joe’s praises, which was pure cornpone political tripe and theater that had Joe more like a carnival barker trying to whip up enthusiasm for Little Egypt’s last show of the night, or a patent medicine grifter peddling snake oil to the unwitting and unwary, with his shills in the crowd, just as Joe had his shills there during his performance the other night, with Joe’s shills in the audience, according to the AP version of the transcript, yelling BOOO on cue at various moments in the speech, as follows:

    Now — now my predecessor, a former Republican president, tells Putin, quote, “Do whatever the hell you want.”

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    Many of you in this chamber and my predecessor are promising to pass a national ban on reproductive freedom.

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    I say to the American people: When America gets knocked down, we get back up. We keep going. That’s America. That’s you, the American people.

    It’s because of you America is coming back. It’s because of you our future is brighter. It’s because of you that tonight we can proudly say the state of our Union is strong and getting stronger.

    AUDIENCE: Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!

    Over 100 million of you can no longer be denied health insurance because of a preexisting condition. But my predecessor and many in this chamber want to take the — that prescription drug away by repealing Affordable Care Act.

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    But here’s the deal. The last administration enacted a $2 trillion tax cut overwhelmingly benefit the top 1 percent — the very wealthy —

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    Folks at home, does anybody really think the tax code is fair?

    AUDIENCE: No!

    THE PRESIDENT: Do you really think the wealthy and big corporations need another $2 trillion tax break?

    AUDIENCE: No!

    The way to make the tax code fair is to make big corporations and the very wealthy begin to pay their share. Remember in 2020, 55 of the biggest companies in America made $40 billion and paid zero in federal income tax. Zero.

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    You know, there are 1,000 billionaires in America. You know what the average federal tax is for those billionaires?

    AUDIENCE MEMBER: Zero!

    THE PRESIDENT: No.

    They’re making great sacrifices — 8.2 percent.

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    REPRESENTATIVE GREENE: What about Laken Riley?

    (Cross-talk.)

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    REPRESENTATIVE GREENE: Say her name!

    THE PRESIDENT: (The President holds up a pin reading “Say Her Name, Laken Riley.”) Lanken — Lanken (Laken) Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed.

    REPRESENTATIVE GREENE: By an illegal!

    THE PRESIDENT: By an illegal. That’s right. But how many of thousands of people are being killed by legals?

    (Cross-talk.)

    Folks, I would respectfully su- — suggest to my friend in — my Republican friends owe it to the American people. Get this bill done. We need to act now.

    AUDIENCE: Get it done! Get it done! Get it done!

    Look, folks, we have a simple choice: We can fight about fixing the border or we can fix it. I’m ready to fix it. Send me the border bill now.

    AUDIENCE: Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!

    Meanwhile — meanwhile, my predecessor told the NRA he’s proud he did nothing on guns when he was President.

    AUDIENCE: Booo —

    I’m optimistic. I really am. I’m optimistic, Nancy.

    AUDIENCE: Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!

    What infantile BULL**** that all is!

    The stupidest stump speech ever given in America in all of its history.

    And note that none of that above which is in the AP version of the transcript https://apnews.com/article/state-of-union-transcript-biden-2024-e84f5134e5201987eb441629aef5240c shows up in the white house version which has it edited out.
