God, Keith Olbermann hates the word Zeitgeist so much, and yet he keeps using it because he has to! This is exactly like the president always borrowing the money from the Chinese, to keep Wall Street happy. Let’s see what pathetic excuses he has for his terrible failure to solve all the problems in America instantly, or at least in the last 12 months.
9:12 PM — Dammit Nancy Pelosi is wearing a completely ordinary lavender suit. No gin shots for you, sorry!
9:13 PM — Cast your mind back to the Past, which was even more awful than the Present, if you can imagine such a thing. Just remember the constant parade of terror and poverty that was American history. Also Bull Run! And the Depression! And children, writing sad letters to the President.
9:15 PM — Drink yr Scotch/Budweiser combo, for Wall Street and Main Street have been cited.
9:17 PM — “Our union is strong.” Jesus, what loser forgot to leave that chestnut out of the Drinking Game?
9:18 PM — Oh right the ECONOMY. Biden is already laughing at Obama’s punchline. Everybody hated the bank bailout! Except for uh THE BANKS. Geithner gives his best imitation of a human “smile” expression. Geithner is so fucking rich and terrible, with the banks and all.
9:20 PM — Somebody has a terribly racist baby, because he is weeping and wailing at the sight of President Obama. To review: the Obama Administration did lots of nice things, such as extending unemployment insurance and subsidizing Cobra. “Let me repeat: WE CUT TAXES.” Whatever dude you are a Demoncrap, you do not cut taxes. Daily Kos told you not to.
9:21 PM — John Boehner is not amused by President Obama’s tax cuts. Neither are the Tea Baggers, who believe that Obama has plunged them into a maelstrom of socialism with his taxes.
9:22 PM — Republicans do not care for the Recovery Act, with its tax cuts and job thingums. Why? Not enough subsidies/tax cuts for gay bathroom sex, of course! Ba da boom! OH PRESIDENT JOHN McCAIN, WHERE ARE YOU NOW.
9:24 PM — “Slowly slums are starting to hire again.” (?)
9:26 PM — Yeah yeah yeah take the money from the big banks and give it to the little banks, which would be nice! “While we’re at it, let’s all provide tax incentives for blow jobs and ponies.”
9:26 PM — ENERGY, huzzah! Hey this editor knows a certain person who would like to replace the leaky windows in her leaky old house! We would like a Fancy Window Bailout, please and thank you.
9:29 PM — The president wants a jobs bill, without delay. Uh, could he not have wanted this TWELVE MONTHS AGO?
9:31 PM — “You may call me too ambitious. You may call me a perfectionist. Yes, in fact, one of my worst qualities is that I am a perfectionist.”
9:31 PM — China and India are making serious investments in clean energy?
9:32 PM — “I’m not interested in punishing banks.” Obama is perhaps the only person in America, besides bankers, who is not interested in this thing.
9:33 PM — Did Joe and Nancy coordinate with Michelle to make sure they were all sporting similar, but slightly different, shades of purple?
9:34 PM — Oh this is the part where he talks about increasing funding for Laser Beam Research and other “let’s put a cat on the moon, for kicks” sorts of projects.
9:37 PM — Sorry America, somebody’s little babby is having a party freakout. Your Jim Newell will be back in 5 minutes to do whatever the fuck.

Vodka + vodka combo has been drunkednnd
Obama the Lecturerer.
A government that matches their decency? oh, lord.
Do I have to play if I am already drunk?
gotta love joe biden’s bobblehead moves.
Did Joe Biden just do a “Yo Go Girl” thing in the back?
Hopeful Man is full of hope.
*applause*
Obama is wearing a Euro style stripe, while Biden wears American-style?……OMG SOCIALIST!!!!11!!1!!
joe-bi just had a premature clap situation
Sweet merciful Jesus, what’s with the fucking Siemens ads? Seriously, you’re taking money from a company that has been popped for bribery and price fixing in recent years, AND the whole “Somewhere in America, Siemens answers are at work” line is über-goddamned-creepy seeing as how Siemens had actual factories in concentration camps during this little thing called THE HOLOCAUST.
biden tried to starta slow clap
I hated the bailout, sez B 3x. Nobody laughed at that root canal joke.
Two comments. One, that head in the photo for this post is unnerving. If it talked, I’d screech like a crazy woman. Two, every time I see the Siemann’s photo, all I can think is “They are out standing in their field”. har har har
Hopey being all jokey and shit.
Blame it on Bush.
“Unemployment might be double what it is today.” Sound of Republicans thumping themselves on their foreheads.
Bring back Adlai Stevenson!
Why does Hopey hate dentists?
Obama hates the bank bailout, too. Who likes it, other than the bankers?
Blame it on the Banks.
Who is this orange dude getting all the whiteys happy?
Fees on banks! woo-hoo! Go Hopey! Go Hopey! Tap into that populist rage!
Wait, they’re standing what I miss?? A gay joke?
did he say “keen”? ok, i like that. fuck the bankers in their stupid fucking asses, also.
Joe Biden’s shiny white teeth frighten Annie.
Lavender = purple = blue plus red. I’m telling you….
Awwww, Geithner gave Hopey such a look of mancrush.
Wouldn’t it be sweet to see Republicans shamed into voting for higher taxes? Okay, the brownies have apparently kicked in.
Does the Hopey bust dispense hard liquor or just unicorn tears?
Bank tax
Democratic aisle: YAYAYAYAYAYAY!
Republican aisle: *crickets* *sour old men faces*
[re=502485]bone433[/re]: They just like saying “see-mens”.
How does one man grow so many gray hairs in one year?
Watching Obama talk about all the things he’s done to THE BANKS this year is like watching Steve Jobs talk about all the milestones the iPhone has passed today
Cobra coverage? I’m on the Dr Mindbender plan, myself.
He hates banks… and taxes!
Did someone’s phone just go off in the chamber, or has my TV developed Vancome lady syndrome?
Oh, Hopey. love u
Aw, cute little smile there. Nancy, sit TF down.
We fought Inbians, Locusts, Dicks, remember when Richard Dicks tried to take over America.
Buy things! Buy things! For America!
biden and pelosi match – its cute, it looks like older people’s third-wedding outfits.
Republican can’t stand up because of their hemorrhoids.
No Republicans stood when the President said the banks can afford a small fee to pay back the American people. The party of personal and fiscal responsibility!
[re=502485]bone433[/re]: Hey, welcome to the party, you crazy joker! (SKS, banhammer plz)
This man has no imagination. What he should do is arrange for the Library of Congress to be burned, then blame it on the GOP. Then he could declare martial law, round up all the miscreants and put them on trial (15 minutes should be sufficient to conduct a trial), then line them up and shoot ‘em.
This man has no imagination. He needs to raise his sights.
Is O’Queef there to get this all down on video?
god, hopey, it’s sweet of you to be cordial to the republicans, but come onnnn, maaaan. fuck. they deserve nothing less than scorn and threats.

HARRY REID WORST TIMING EVER
[re=502513]AxmxZ[/re]: Seriously. Those fucks need ejector-seats.
Was that Harry Reid yawning?
Man; the supreme court justices aren’t clapping for ANYTHING.
“That’s two million Americans who would otherwise be unmeployed.” One of whom is not Joe the Plumber.
I see someone’s trying to take that post-Leno slot.
The plan? The recovery act. That’s right, ever hear of it? Wonder why?
Harry is looking a little bored and in need of a nap.
Heh heh heh, ribbing Republicans about not liking tax cuts when a Dem effects them. Boehner looking super sour.
The republican’s are a clappy bunch.
Now he’s gettin’ all anecdotal and stuff.
what drink is that on pelosi’s desk? Gin AND tonic, I presume?
Drinking game should be made for the FOX response.
JOBS JOBS JOBS !!!!!!
Republicans: The best homogenized bag of dicks in the world.
took a while for the rethugs to stand up and clap for jobs.
[re=502525]Koolaid[/re]: They’re wondering just who is this dusky long man blocking the telly…
Holy Shit, did you just see that weird tongue thing Pelosi did after the “I thought I’d get some applause on that one” line?
This is officially the weirdest State of the Union ever.
Root canals?
Barack fishing for laughs?
Republicans actually clapping for Democratic proposals?
Jobs? 2010? Did health care just get screwed?
is it just me, or does eric cantor look like the living embodiment of a smug prick?
Is that Barry’s mother-in-law at Pelosi’s side?
I can’t believe I’m missing The Real World: DC for this
‘Hated it’. Now I’ve got Men on Film in my head.
The only clap with republicans tonight was picked up at the Union Station men’s room.
I’m audio only, IS HE READING THIS OFF HIS TELEPROMPTERZZZZ?!
[re=502553]Cornelius[/re]: Nancy doesn’t look well.
[re=502538]DantronLesotho[/re]: They are just SO DAMN HARD TO PLEASE. Life tenure goes to your head.
OMG! When he mentioned that person who sends out resumes but never hears back? That was me! Hopey talked just about me!!!!!!!!!
I’ve never been mentioned in a SOTU before
[re=502553]Cornelius[/re]: Hopey does that to the ladies…
[re=502531]obfuscator[/re]: I want to have your children.
Screw them big banks! All right! Give it to the little banks!
The Republicans SMILE at the jobs creation news. No snideness there, right? right?
Small business loans to stimulate the economy! Republicans don’t like small businesses or the economy, so this will never happen.
Can we call it the “Its a Wonderful Life” Bill?
SIT THE FUCK DOWN AND LET THE MAN TALK DAMMIT
They don’t like tax cuts, they don’t like small business — who are these un-American people on the right side of the chamber?
[re=502509]eastcoastliberal[/re]: George Stephanopoulos was practically giggling like a school girl when he made this same observation commenting on Michelle Obama’s dress, Nancy Pelosi’s suit and Biden’s tie.
How do republicans know what they are and aren’t allowed to be happy about?
Boehner is particularly orange tonight. Is that from a tanning booth, or does his staff freshen up his tan with one of those airbrush systems?
Infrastrucure!!!
FUCK ALL THAT WHERE IS MY JET PACK YOU LIAR?
Dayum! the rethugs love the socialism specific to bizznus!
I basically cream my pants when Obama talks about high speed rail.
Oh man the Chinese are totally pwning WMATA…Barry said so
This is solid enough stuff for a State of the Union address. He looks confident and energised; good show BHO.
Invest in plants. Weed, shrooms, coca, poppies….
[re=502564]Hooray For Anything[/re]: Me, too!
Pelosi keeps plastering on the frozen smile.
[re=502576]Terry[/re]: That’s a tan-in-a-bottle if I ever saw one.
USA! USA! USA!
I’m still hoping he’ll call for a Constitutional Adjustment to over-turn your High Court decision…
i dont think his flag pin is big enough
Tampa FL…
There’s nothing on earth
Like a genuine,
Bona fide,
Electrified,
Six-car

Republicans not buying any of this “help-the-small-business” shit. Why can’t small businesses pull themselves up by sticking a finger up their ass and yanking upwards real hard? That’s what they would do… when does this thing end anyway? There will be a line for the men’s room.
Time for another voddy.
Don’t stand for jobs in America, Repubs. Lord knows only jobs from major multinational corps with overseas tax havens will get love from the right.
Barack Obama is tweeting excerpts of his speech as he delivers it. How the hell does he do that? With his toes?
“As my first order of business this year, I order the Senate to futz around and a few right-wing Democrats and Joe Lieberman to gum everything up.”
How are we going to pay for all these tax cuts? Oops, no snark there–but, okay–a campaign promise! No tax breaks for shipping jobs overseas. Yay! And Pelosi goes crazy. It’s like the World Cup. I’m surprised nobody painted their faces red, white and blue.
Jerbs. Who be makin jerbs? I be makin jerbs, just send the bill!!
[re=502574]PMS[/re]: Lavendar was totes in this year at [enter Hollywood librul award event].
[re=502554]nojmplease[/re]: That third one is still in the realm of fiction.
Man, all the boys’ screaming is making this feel like a speech in the British Parliament.
[re=502544]Lawndarts[/re]: “The republican’s are a clappy bunch.”
They applaud a lot, too.
[re=502576]Terry[/re]: he’s trying for a spot on season 2 of Jersey Shore with that tan
Ooh — slamming Dubya. Low job growth, housing bubble — he didn’t mention fewer insured Americans, gap between rich and middle-class growing…
[re=502574]PMS[/re]: I’ve been watching Keith O who made no such observation. I am as smart as George!! (sad)
China! China! China!
Bomb China!
oh damn! “how long should we wait?!” china don’t wait!
It’s practically exercise for the Congressheeple with all the standing up and sitting down since they need to applaud every 47 seconds.
The Republicans should get in on these DC yogalates.
[re=502593]Slim[/re]: With his (ahem) staff.
Second place is the first loser.
No second place for USA! Front of the bus for all of us, baby.
Second place is for poor people.
’bout time, rippin Bushie a new one.
so Third Place is the goal?
I’m SUCH an Obamatard. Can’t help it. Heap disdain on me at will.
The only way to move to full employment?
Quantitative easing and a really, really good war…
Cheap trick, that second-place-for-America thing. They HAD to stand up for that one.
Health care reform? What health care reform? We don’t need no stinkin’ health care reform!
If they start chanting “USA-USA-USA!” I’m leaving.
2nd Place! 2nd Place! 2nd Place! 2nd Place! 2nd Place!

For a supposedly “Lost Decade,” we’ll sure be living with the consequences for a hell of a long time…
Uh oh, math and science. But math and science are hard. No, not like that, Sen. Vitter.
And thus started the great Jobs Race, which frankly beat the shit out of the Arms Race, though it produced infinitely less entertaining movies.
Has anyone on Fox yet noticed that Hopey is standing in front of a Greek temple-like set, emphasizing his claim to be the messiah?
U-S-A!!! U-S-A!!!!1 Woof-woof-woof!!!
Serious financial reform — consumer protection — oh, say “Glass-Steagal.”
Enough pedagogy — I want some oratorical raw meat!
Tax credits for families with kids are well and fine. Personally, though, I’d like a fat tax credit for childless old maids. We’d spend that money and stimulate the economy, rather than saving it in a college fund or something.
Sorry, Mr. President, but me? I could go for some serious punishment for the banks.
Sorry to come off as a cheerleader again, but this is excellent stuff. He has changed up, and he’s winning.
[re=502625]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Ha!~ I said that in unison. Remind me to email you about this topic.
Lady police officer was asking if Michelle wanted her to shoot at the Republicans’ feet.
Did I mention I am enjoying a fine Chilean Carmenere? Wow. This is some good shit.
VETO THE SHEE-ITE OUTTA THAT FINANCIAL REFORM DAT DON’T KICK A BANKER IN THE NADS! BOIIIEEEE!
I love the “we need a bill without delay” and “we need to stand up to lobbyist” bit where all the Democrats stand up in support of it despite the fact that starting tomorrow they’ll all just go back to moving slowly and giving in to lobbyists.
[re=502624]teebob2000[/re]: You suck
I was getting SOTU confused with STFU and wondering why everyone on Wonkette seemed so angry today.
Nukes! Publicans to their feet!
[re=502619]Brendan M.[/re]: No shit.
Safe, clean nuke plants — and even the GOP is applauding this one. You know what country has almost 100% of its energy from nuclear? France.
Oh no.
He just pronounced “nuclear” correctly.
[re=502624]teebob2000[/re]: USA – USA – US… nuclear power plants?!!?
So many standing O-vations! (it’s a pun, geddit)
Yey, nukes! Now every town can be Springfield.
Seriously, new nukes are awesome.
Science joke, eat it, repubs!
i love how he gave the climate a nice wind-up by looking and smiling at the republicans.
haha “overwhelming evidence” this guy is still pretty fun sometimes.
[re=502631]proudgrampa[/re]: Is that a flavour of hashish I haven’t had yet?
Michele Bachman is monkey-clapping (left hand palm up, bring right down on it). She missed soul-kissing Bush this year.
No nukes!!!!!111 And drill, baby, drill. Who swapped out my Obama??
“I even know that there are those who disagree with the overwhelming scientific evidence about climate change.” Heheh — Bachmann and Inhofe must’ve cringed.

Clearly, the Senate is #2 in Obama’s eyes (pun intended)

All this up-down-up-down must play havoc with Biden’s knees…

Oh for fuck’s sake. Just get to the bit where you talk about health care, Hopey. No one wants to hear shit about exports and college credits. As far as I understand it, the entire FATE OF THE WORLD hinges upon healthcare reform.

Regarding the giant leather chairs: Notice how Biden, who is at least as tall as the back of his giant leather chair, looks larger than life. Nancy, who is much shorter than the back of her giant leather chair, somehow looks like either a child playing grown-up or a Disney villain.

[re=502988]Extemporanus[/re]: I know that’s hella tardy, yo, but my magical magnetic levitating internet connection has been down this whole fucking time, and I had to get that out of my system.
Purple is the color that occurs when you mix blue and red together. Perhaps this is a very gay way of striking a conciliatory tone.
YOU LIE!
Looks to me like he screwed the pooch. People are seriously sick of the pretty speeches – & they want to see some blood & thunder from their leaders in tough times. There needed to be some real fire coming from that podium tonight, & I didn’t see so much as a puff of smoke. Dude’s still got his bipartisanship-corsage on for the GOP, after all the psychopathological ugliness of the past year? Face it, Mr. President – they’re just not that into you.
WTF? A spending freeze? This really IS great news for John McCain – it’s WHAT HE RAN (& lost) ON … yeah, no doubt the Republicans are licking their chops: remember Obama calling that “doing surgery with a chainsaw, when what we need is a scalpel” in 2008? If things aren’t looking waaaaaay up by a year from now when that bitch kicks in, shit’s gonna get very very real for America very quickly thereafter. Rachel Maddow called it punting from the one-yard line, & she may well be right.
