If the Tea Party can do THEIR own SOTU response....

[Ken Burch]

Any chance we can get air time for the Progressive Caucus or the CBC to do the same?

No reason only those to Obama's right should get their say, after all.

1. progressives are summarily ignored

so even if it were given, the MSM would ignore it.

3. We could put it out on YouTube.

And podcasts. And Free Speech TV. Plus, C-Span would pretty much have to cover it.

7. I posted last night, "have we ever had a "code pink" response????

cnn is making fun of bachman....but THEY decided to cover it! Wolfie and the propagandists!

2. Since the opposition response isn't Constitutionally mandated like the SOTU ...

... why is the response even covered?

5. The SOTU is not required to be delivered in the chamber

nor is it required to be delivered for the entire country to hear...why is IT covered at all? It is nothing but political theater.

6. Until 1912, it wasn't delivered as a speech at all.

Before then, whoever was president just wrote it up and SENT it to Congress.

Woodrow Wilson was the one who decided to actually make it into a big event, for some reason.
