Tweet I can’t make myself listen to Obama. He hectors and I don’t need that in my life. I’ll read the speech, and the multiple analyses of the speech, tomorrow. Until then, I’d love to hear what you have to say about it — or what you have to say about anything else that’s interesting. [...]

Tweet We tend to find what we’re looking for. Since conservatives know that Obama comes from a socialist background, has advanced policies that are antithetical to capitalism, and has defeated opportunities and initiatives that are supportive of capitalism, we’re going to assume that, in any speech he gives, ordinary statements are actually code for a [...]

Tweet Clark S. Judge sent to Hugh Hewitt a great note analyzing what Obama really said during the SOTU.

This is not the same as trimming the fat and increasing efficiency. Instead, he envisions the American military in say, circa 1917 or 1941. Yes, we won both those wars, but [...]

Tweet We can expect tomorrow night’s State of the Union address to be an action-packed hour (or so) of vitriol and self-pity. Obama will cherry-pick a few numbers about the 1% and then whine about how he’s been trying really hard to destroy that same 1%, but that a vast array of insurmountable obstacles — [...]

Tweet Preparing and eating dinner took precedence of the President’s first State of the Union speech, so I didn’t watch it in real time. Indeed, because I find Obama’s presentation dull (he has the cadences of a slightly defective metronome), I haven’t listened to it at all, but I have read it. I therefore felt [...]
