I have grave doubts I will come to DU during the STOU

[Peacetrain]

The entrenched anti Democratic party types will be in full howl, even if it is something they say they wanted 20 minutes before.

Bet you a dollar to a doughnut.. they are getting their talking points together right now to counteract any proposal that the President or the Democrats will put forward..

Just saying

[SeattleGirl]

1. I'm not even going to be home during the SOTU.

I'll listen to the speech on the radio, but I'm not going to listen to any talking heads, read anything on DU, etc. I want a chance to absorb it; I don't need anybody else to tell me what I heard right after I heard it.

I'll save that for later.

2. Over/Under on points of outrage? I say 5 major outrage themes. nt

[grantcart]

8. whats the Over/Under on "I told you so" threads??

Or how about "He only did that because we stomped our feet so we have to stomp our feet more" threads?

[CBR]

9. I say... 50 on 'I told you so' and

25 on the latter (almost all exclusively related to DADT).

[cliffordu]

20. I say it's loud, no matter what the figure.....

:hurts:

[goclark]

3. Bingo! They will have full

control on any evil mesages that they can dream up ~

"I Have a Dream that one day,DU will be once again be a place where ALL DEMOCRATS can work together for the good of their party."

[madokie]

6. If I didn't have that dream I wouldn't be here now

[treestar]

4. Are we able to have a thread here?

I plan on ignoring all the rest of DU and all talking heads!

[goclark]

10. I'll only post here tonight, hope we have a running thread

[madokie]

5. I agree it will be more fun to watch glue set up

STOU, save the obama union???

but seriously why do Dems always seem to form circular firing squads whenever they get in the majority? why is that?

I'm a life long dem and I know better, so why in the hell can't our elected perps figure this one out.

[euphoria12leo]

7. They are saving their talking points

ready to unleash rabid behavior (CUJO comes to mind) before they absorb or understand what the heck is going on. Nothing the president has to say will satisfy these people. They already said if he repeals/sets a time frame for DADT that is "throwing them a bone". That's just for starters.

:nuke:

[Arkana]

15. Seriously?

He could declare that all Republicans will be shot on sight, have John Boner publicly executed and Mitch McConnell strung up by his testicles, and the people in GD would still scream "HE'S JUST GIVING US CRUMBS I WILL CHOOSE TO BE ANGRY THAT HIS CHIEF OF STAFF ACCIDENTALLY WENT ON THE RECORD AND MADE SENSE BACK IN AUGUST".

[Cha]

18. Turns out that was another BIG LIE

by Liar dog lake. Rahm called the plan.. fucking retarded.

[goclark]

11. We're having a BOG Party right here tonight

:party:
See you in a few hours ~ M$M CNN will start at 5 PM EST

[jaxx]

12. I won't be here during the speech, but I will be after.

I want to listen to President Obama and hear what he has to say....without some bs spinning the words.

I took the night off from work.....lol you can call me nuts! ;-)





edit...the bs would be coming from the GDP, not here. Ah, but you already knew that!

[sandnsea]

13. I'll be here, I think it will be good

I think he is really going to focus in on what the stimulus actually did and is going to do, and how health care reform is essential to the economic recovery. I'm no longer interested in what any of the left has to say, they blew a golden opportunity to become the second party and are too stupid to even see it. They lost the political spotlight to teabaggers for chrissake.

Today I got an email - Tell PGE No To Dirty Coal - Close Boardman!!

Turns out Oregon has the potential of being coal free by 2014, woohoo! Boardman is the last coal plant and it will be closed by 2020, with a few shifts in spending, we can get it closed by 2014. Why do they have to make it an attack? People will get excited about achieving something positive. I am so sick of "battles". I want to accomplish something for a change.

[graywarrior]

14. I'm watching it from work

So I won't be posting or reading or even giving a flying fuck about what they're saying in GDP

[Fire1]

16. Yes, it gets pretty sickening. I'm waiting for the post that says,

"YOU LIE!" EVERYTHING will be negative!!!!

[Cha]

17. But, some of them

can't even watch(boo hoo) so they can't bitch.

Just come here in the BOG..we have a thread already up and running as you know.:)

[Peacetrain]

19. I am happy to see the SOTU in the BOG!!... even GDP seems positive tonight

[goclark]

21. It was as if they Got The Memo to be still tonight

It was so refreshing.
