Fox turns SOTU into a vote-off freakshow
I'm not kidding:

SOTU: Text Your Reaction To Fox News





Tonight, for the first time, Fox News Channel is giving viewers the opportunity to text message their reaction during the State of the Union address and post-analysis using mobile devices. Graphics, like the one above, will be displayed on screen during the coverage with information on how to text vote, while showing the responses in real-time. The final results will be presented at 11pm ET during Hannity & Colmes.

8. The displayed graphic is just an example
I'm sure that once the State of the Whatever speech begins, Fox will provide its viewers with the full range of acceptable responses:

A. Excellent
B. Outstanding
C. Ohmigod call the Pope to confer sainthood on Bush right this very second
