Remember when a certain republicon yelled out that President Obama was a liar during the State of the Union address? No? Well here it is:
And tonight, the occupant of the White house rebuffed the Speaker's handshake. Missed it? Here it is:
It is they who are dissing us. They have been for decades. Geez, need we talk about the Clinton years? Speaker Pelosi sent a message tonight through her actions concerning the speech transcript. That message? It is simply that there are some of us,.......no, millions of us who can see through the con job and will never buy it.

God, I hate it when he walks around that stage clapping for himself. When have we ever seen the likes of this? And all the Nazi supporters in the GOP feeding his narcissism.
I am just so disgusted with all of this.

(15,536 posts)They don't want to see it. Our country, at least at this point in our history, is terribly short sighted. Look how they still won't admit how awful Reagan was for the majority of Americans.

(43,137 posts)I did not watch the speech, preferring a good night's sleep. I awaken to find Madame Speaker tore it into pieces and held up the carcass.
Oh this is grand! I am laughing out loud. Reality is marching past Trump as sure as the clock strikes one.

(333 posts)What happened to Obama was conservative racism--first African American to be elected president in the History of this country. Trump on the other hand has been reduced to an angry, petty, little boy who was IMPEACHED BY NANCY PELOSI, YOU SEE SHE IS THE ONE LAUGHING WHILE THE LITTLE CRY BABY THROWS TEMPER TANTRUMS. SHE KNOWS IT AND SHE SHOWS IT BY THE SMILE ON HER FACE!! SHE ALREADY GOT THE LAST WORD!! She's a classy lady, i like her! sorry for the caps. History will forget about trump's childish rebuff, but history will never forget donnie dumba*s was impeached--AND BY A WOMAN!!. She blemished his tarnished record.
