Guess they lost funding for the control room.

I think they were trying to get this weird square video working with the big SOTU logo on the right side, and they kept cycling the mode until it showed up.

[WillyFive]

I remember when TV was like that if you got up early enough.

It was...hypnotizing.

 

[adj_noun]

I hope the Republican side doesn't clap at all so we can get some great imagery at how fucking behind the Republicans are.

One of the best things about watching these things is watching the clap/don't clap struggle.

 

[RustyNails]

Disappointed Obama did not walk in like this

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Heard Obama is going to mention the community college thing.

 

[GameGuru59]

Some of the Supreme Court did not come? What the hell? Has that ever happened?

They don't ever all come. Partly because of national security, partly because some of them see it as endorsing the president's message, basically.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

it is extremely tiring to clap for the 10 minutes it takes for him to get to the front of the room

it needs to be like wrestling, complete with pyro and entrance music

He's already done this

Goddamn.

I just realized this will be the second-to-last SOTU from Obama.




Goddammit.

"Tonight we turn the page".

What are we on, page 6?

 

[TheAbsolution]

ABC always likes to have a crappy graphic up.

 

[ShooterMcGavin]

I love Orlesian politics.

 

[HylianTom]

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Obama is coming out swinging.

 

[TacticalFox88]

I like how he emphasized "Insured!"

Rub that salt in Obama

 

[RustyNails]

Does Boehner look more tan than usual? He almost looks like he's from Middle-East or Latin America.

 

[Drakeon]

Notorious RBG.

 

[GameGuru59]

"Tonight we turn the page".

What are we on, page 6?

page 238.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Does Boehner look more tan than usual? He almost looks like he's from Middle-East or Latin America.

He's orange from my point of view.

 

[Black Mamba]

Boehner doesn't clap for more insured people. Claps for American oil.
GOP in a nutshell

 

[Arc]

My favorite part of this is the politics behind who stands and applauds for different topics.

 

[adj_noun]

He's orange from my point of view.

Don't adjust your sets.

 

[zoozilla]

Does Boehner look more tan than usual? He almost looks like he's from Middle-East or Latin America.

He looks like an Oompa-Loompa.

 

[ISOM]

Boehner doesn't clap for more insured people. Claps for American oil.
GOP in a nutshell

Pretty much what I noticed.

 

[Tarkus]

I like how he emphasized "Insured!"

Rub that salt in Obama

Yeah, with shit insurance.

 

[Officerrob]

Does Boehner look more tan than usual? He almost looks like he's from Middle-East or Latin America.

He's almost darker than Obama, it's ridiculous

 

[thefit]

Msnbc with a quarter of the screen occupied with some fuking question this isnt American idol assholes.

 

[Suikoguy]

There's always at least SCOTUS justice and at least one Cabinet member who doesn't attend so that in the event of a terrorist attack or such, someone would still be alive to carry on the government.

That is not the reason for the 3 conservative justices to not show up.

 

[adj_noun]

My favorite part of this is the politics behind who stands and applauds for different topics.

Boehner's already been a hoot.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Biden always looks like he's on the verge of sleep

 

[Trey]

Boehner is killing me.

 

[GameGuru59]

Yeah, with shit insurance.

Actually, I just bought an ACA plan and its just like any other private plan. Just subsidized by the govt.

 

[Emarv]

where's my girl Sotomayor?

 

[Amir0x]

"State of the Union is strong. Unless you're Black, in which case that community are literally in a permanent economic depression according to stats."

*no claps*

"So, like...some of the Union is strong I guess."

 

[cdyhybrid]

All I want is one mention of NASA/private space companies.

Obama pls.

Speech script is already out:

The White House has released the transcript of the speech ahead of time: http://www.vox.com/2015/1/20/7859779/2015-sotu-transcript

Scalia, Alito, and Thomas all boycotting tonight

Looks like someone beat me to it.

 

[TheAbsolution]

One of the representatives didn't realize that that was a rhetorical question lol.

 

[Red Comet]

I think the State of the Union address reinforces the negative stereotype that Americans clap too much.

 

[Violence Jack]

Boehner doesn't clap for more insured people. Claps for American oil.
GOP in a nutshell

I was noticing that. He doesn't seem happy about pretty much anything.

 

[JCX]

I hope the Republican side doesn't clap at all so we can get some great imagery at how fucking behind the Republicans are.

Actually, Obama is going to mentions tons of shit that will never happen due to Congressional gridlock, but the more important victory is in the visuals. When he hammers on immigration and Republicans sit there all lockjawed, it's gonna be yet another Democratic victory for 2016 presidential politics

And why is this important?

Stacking the supreme court.

SCOTUS appointments are the largest factor in 2016 for me, I just wish there was a way to show its importance to others.

 

[WedgeX]

That clap.

 

[Mesousa]

This shit is so awkward.

 

[adj_noun]

Hahahahaha

 

[Tarkus]

Actually, I just bought an ACA plan and its just like any other private plan. Just subsidized by the govt.

With an extremely high deductible and good luck finding clinics in GA that take it. Hope you're ready to travel.

 

[TheAbsolution]

That response lol.

 

[cdyhybrid]

No applause for the newlyweds.

The gay mafia destroyed marriage.

/s

 

[Stinkles]

Mitch McConnell embarrassed himself with his "tax and spend" prebuttal.

But also he's an evil pandering turtle.

 

[RoKKeR]

My favorite part of this is the politics behind who stands and applauds for different topics.

Yes. And the refrain at awkward times, just like that.

 

[FyreWulff]

yeah, cbs has the most minimal graphic overlay on this

literally just a tiny presidential logo, really small text bar, and that's it
