Woah! Peter King just shook hands with a Muslim!
That must have been hard for him.

Paul Ryan must feel uncomfortable being around a black man in Jay Z.
It's been infuriating seeing people dismiss Obama's proposal as an "extreme position" to be talked down from.

bitch I'm taking calls.
Yeah. It's relatively tame.
I don't know, but it's bad news for Obama. Bet on that.
What will tomorrow's Gallup say about this? Husted might try something else in Ohio now...

Quick, unskew the polls!
I'm worried about what this means for Romney, is he going to make a come back?
That's a real shocker.

Fox News is waterboarding for intellectuals.

AMD WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!
I was at a doctor's appointment during Obama's speech. Sounds like it was a nice one from Twitter reactions.
Charles Krauthammer used phrases like "hyper liberal" and "petty" while describing how it was a celebration of big government's return. Nothing too surprising, but still pretty funny.
Edit: Now they're saying that he said nothing about the debt and that he doesn't care about economic issues.
First, I had to complete a manuscript for possible publication and finish the semester; being a TA for introductory statistics is not fun. Then I returned home for winter break. I only see my family a few times a year, so I maximize my time with them. As I much as I enjoy posting on here, it had to take the back seat. But I'm back now.

I nominated you for most eloquent speaker in a thread recently. Just saying.
The second half lf the speech was good. What's the next thing to look forward to? When are we going to know what filibuster reform is going to look like?
Since I'm laughing at Fox News, I guess I should also say that I'm a little offended to see CNN talking to Tim Gunn for several minutes about how to rate Michelle Obama's appearance on a scale of 1 to 10. They then go on to talk about her "style legacy," instead of, you know, any of the policy initiatives that she's passionate about.
I guess this would stick out less to me if they also had frequent style updates on Joe Biden or something. Dat sexism...

Over 5 inches thick; been in the Biden family since the 1800s. Got all that neat Celtic engraving on it too.
The speech was really good, and filled with progressive ideology... but I just will wait to see what happens in the coming months to know if he'll just be a soft Republican again when it comes to governing.
CNN is now the MTV of news.
Indeed. And when Obama is gone in four years, his Supreme Court appointees will be there for decades.
If you watch 1600 Penn on NBC, this was a main theme of last week's episode. The media kept talking about the First Lady's past as a dancer (before she became a lawyer) rather than the education bill she was trying to pass through the Senate.

THAT remains the #1 reason I voted for Obama. Without such an imperative, I might have stayed out of it this time. The Supreme Court DEMANDS to stay at at least its current makeup. If it reverted any further, it'd be generations before we could fix the damage done to this countries laws.

Yay! You missed some stuff!
Saw this at the top of the page and legitimately thought I had clicked into the wrong thread. Well done indeed

Made the mistake of reading some comment sections again.
*sigh*
I'm still honestly baffled at how people can say some of this horribly ignorant shit. At this point I'm starting to believe all these comments are being made by mentally deficient people. That's the only thing I can figure out.

When I was lurking during the election season, someone linked to an opinion piece that basically said that even if Obama did nothing for you, if you considered yourself a liberal you had to support him in this election just because of the Supreme Court nominees.
Ginsburg should definitely be replaced under Obama. Scalia and Kennedy are both getting up there as well, and while they probably don't want to retire under a Democrat president, I'd put the odds at above 50% that at least one of them will have to step down in the next four years.
