Filled with inconsistensies and contradictions throughout.
This young man says it welll:
President Obama began Tuesday night's State of the Union address by celebrating the end of a war that he fought to extend. Reveling in the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq, Obama neglected to mention that thousands of private military contractors are still stationed there. In 2007, private contractors proved that that they are relatively apt at recruiting anti-American terrorists when they shot seven civilians in Nisour Square.
This was the first of many contradictions in a speech rife with inconsistency. The president went on to defend the bailouts that marked the beginning of his term - arguing that letting businesses fail would have cost American jobs - but promised to "hold Wall Street accountable." Using taxpayer money to prop up failed corporations does the opposite – it perpetuates failure.
The president advocated prohibiting students from dropping out of high school. Forcing bad students to attend a school is not going to help that school produce results that will save it from failure. Students will be required to attend high school - or what? Will they be better off as criminals than dropouts?
Obama's claim that he's "put more boots on the border than ever before"...

Obama's claim that he's "put more boots on the border than ever before" doesn't add up with his administration's Dec. 20 announcement that it intends to cut the number of troops along our border with Mexico from 1,200 to 300. By contrast, there are 28,500 American troops guarding South Korea's border with North Korea.
At the close of the address, our political class disturbingly applauded the notion of a potential war with Iran. Einstein said that insanity is "doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." Have our politicians forgotten Iraq already - or are they insane?

Then the New Bush, how high is the debt now? And Obama's been here how long?
Get a grip! You guys are greedy. Only a Tea Bagger would to to a Tea Party in a $30,000 SUV to gripe over taxes that would be like a GEO METRO! & like a case of beer for the poor! Really even Jesus said to pay your taxes. Matthew 22:21.
And Health care? DUH!
Health care is a right, not a product.
We have a right to it!
The Tenth Amendment, Article 1?
"Pay the debts and provide the common defense &
general welfare of the united states."
Welfare = Health care!
In the Constitution of the United States (Article I, section 8), the clause that authorizes Congress "To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with Indian Tribes." It is the legal foundation of much of the U.S. government's regulatory authority.
The Republicans did sit down, they know they did this!
You didin't see the poverty workers behind them on your photo. All 80 million of them on food stamps while the rich there paying their fair share.
About time!!!!!
