Anyone else NOT watching the State of the Union? [View all]

I can guess what Obama will say, I can assume what the pukes and baggers will retort. I'd wager 50/50 that some asshole will boo or yell something out...

Best of all, if anything happens, I'll see it here and hear it tomorrow on the news.

I'm still a little burned out on politics, namely the politics of the assholes on the right.
