Best burn moments of the SOTU?

[backscatter712]

I'll start off with one...

"I know that there are those who disagree with the overwhelming scientific evidence on climate change."

Burn...

[peoli]

1. "Hello, My name is Barack Obama and I am the President of the United States of America."

[Jennicut]

2. "Just saying no is not leadership".

I stood and clapped for that one. At 9-something oclock last night, out of my bed.

[TomClash]

3. "That's how budgeting works"

"Meanwhile, China is not waiting to revamp its economy. Germany is not waiting. India is not waiting. These nations -- they're not standing still. These nations aren't playing for second place."

"The more that TV pundits reduce serious debates to silly arguments, big issues into sound bites, our citizens turn away."

[Diane R]

4. "Let's set the record straight".

[newtothegame]

5. Sad that this is what we're celebrating..

That this is what this administration has been so far. The we're celebrating "gotcha" moments in a speech instead of life-changing legislation, as promised.

[Cha]

7. Oh, wah wah..keep whining..

you missed the whole thing.

[Sheepshank]

9. Your comment

is incredibly myopic and pathetically judgemental. You really think everyone here is that two dimesional, and you have so much depth? Hardly. Your depth of character is nothing but a regurgitated memo, spouting the same old rhetoric that's been hitting these board the last few months...wah, wah, wah.

10. OFFS.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

11. Bingo.

I mean just look at that big pile of unsigned life-changing legislation sitting on the president's desk while he's running around being uppity what with his speechifying and his teleprompters and whatnot.

[Bucky]

13. The sad part is that the Republicans have to be scolded like little children

[grantcart]

16. make us all happy and run for office and show how you can initiate

"life changing legislation" lol.

[Froward69]

6. "We have not raised Taxes on anyone, not one penny"

"I thought I would get some applause for that?"

[MorningGlow]

15. Another vote for that one

It really shone the spotlight on the repubs sitting there like petulant children. "I'm just gonna sit here and pout because he's a big doodyhead."
:rofl:

[underpants]

17. "I thought I'd get some applause from that side on that one"

BURN

[FrenchieCat]

8. Mine......

"To Democrats, I would remind you that we still have the largest majority in decades, and the people expect us to solve problems, not run for the hills."

[Bucky]

12. As I read through each new one liner in this thread I go, "No, that one is my favorite!"

The man was on fire. But yes, the shot to the Democrats is the most important. It reminded the Dems who was boss--they are.

[Bucky]

14. Two faves

The best ad lib of the night was "That is the way budgeting is done." Like taking an insolent brat to the woodshed! :rofl:

Runner up was "Thought I might get a little applause there," but that was certainly a planned out "improv".

[Clio the Leo]

18. "yeah ... I thought I'd get some applause .... that was called the RECOVERY ACT!"

"also known as THE STIMULUS BILL!" :)
