Limbaugh: SOTU Is Nothing But A “Vote-Buying Scheme”…

Weasel Zippers

"Everything Obama does is a “vote-buying scheme”…

"Via Daily Caller:

In his pre-State of the Union program, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh slammed the significance of the annual presidential address, saying he has “never cared about a State of the Union address less” than the one Tuesday night.

Limbaugh told his audience that the address, as it is currently constructed, is not a real State of the Union speech. The host said the address is full of “empty promises,” adding that it is a “vote-buying scheme.”

“I have never — and I shouldn’t say this — I have never cared about a State of the Union address less than the one I care about today,” Limbaugh said. “In fact, my temptation is not even to discuss it, because to discuss it is to fall prey to the whole narrative the Drive-By Media is setting up, which is it’s the most important thing in the news today.”

. . . "At least, that's the opinion of Reverend Al "Taxes Is For White Folks" Sharpton, who has somehow become the ludicrous heir apparent to Dr. King's legacy. Following the announcement of this year's Oscar nominations, Reverend Al called an emergency meeting of his Diversity Task Forceto address the fact that there were no black actors or directors nominated for top awards. 

"In the time of Ferguson," Sharpton said while squinting into his word-a-day dictionary, "that isincongruous!"

"Currently, neither the Reverend Sharpton nor his Diversity Task Force has announced plans for a Martin Luther King "Content Of Character" award.

Is Obama More Interested in Progress or Politics? From his address tonight, five ways to judge the president's motives.

Ron Fournier

. . . "Unfortunately, both the White House and the GOP-led Congress seem focused prematurely on 2016. Republicans are sending to the White House legislation they know Obama will veto. The president is pushing an agenda he knows Congress won't pass. It's a recipe for more gridlock, more fighting, more courting of donors and ignoring the needs of a country in transition.

"In other words: The state of the union is the status quo.

If you're OK with that, stop reading. If you'd rather see progress than partisan gains, consider this: The State of the Union address is an opportunity for the president to chart a path toward consensus on issues like jobs, social mobility, education, infrastructure, energy, the debt, the environment, and terrorism.

"Is Obama more interested in politics or progress? Here are five ways to tell from his address tonight."   Keep reading...

As a teaser, here is just one of the benchmarks Fournier includes:

The pronouns: Count how many times Obama uses the words "I," "me," and "my." Compare that number to how often he says, "You," "we," "our." If the first number is greater than the second, Obama has failed. He needs to remember the lesson of Mitt Romney's 2012 campaign: Don't dismiss the 47 percent of Americans who disagree with him.

Tonight's State of the Union; Like Waiting on the Dentist

President Obama will deliver his annual State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress in the House Chamber of the U.S. Capitol tonight. He plans to open by announcing that the State of the Union is strong. It's always a good idea to start out your speech with a good joke to get the crowd on your side.   Argus Hamilton

Taegan Goddard; We Already Know What Obama Will Say Tonight  "Rick Klein: “The ‘spoilers’ strategy may sap what’s left of the drama of anticipation around Tuesday night’s State of the Union. But that drama has been dissipating naturally anyway – and that’s why the White House has to be pleased with the way it’s gotten items off the laundry list and into display cases.  The community-college proposal, the president’s tax plan, the new paid-leave policy – these are all in the political bloodstream now. If we first learned of them Tuesday night, maybe one or two plans total would be expected to get traction. Maybe none of these things end up happening.' ”
Interested in national security? Serious about foreign policy? If so, watching the speech tonight will be a colossal waste of time.

She submitted the proper paperwork when she entered the country, jumped through the necessary hoops to get her visa renewed, and for some reason the Obama administration has chosen her to be their token deportee.

"People have advised her she could stay if she married an American, but Catie refuses to cheat the system.

(And after the SOTU, this president will...)

Jim Gammon; Obama's massaged 'facts' "Perhaps the most telling aspect of President Obama's inability to deal with reality is in ignoring facts when he gives a speech.  He is a political animal, so enslaved to his ideology that he sees facts as irrelevant to his goal, the furthering of that ideology." . . .

Hugh Hewitt; A SOTU Over Before Its Begun (Long sentence alert)  "Tonight President Obama will give a speech few Americans will watch much less remember, and it will lack even a gracious gesture such as Bush's appreciation of Pelosi. "Petulant" has been the tone of the past ten weeks, and while Bush acted within his constitutional authorities to dispatch troops to Iraq in 2007 in sufficient numbers to secure victory in Iraq, and while President Obama has acted within his constitutional authority to begin the return of those troops after his withdrawal of them gave terrorism new life and force can in the rise of ISIS, most of the news now is about a president acting domestically far beyond any established precedent in order to try desperately to stay relevant even as his Class D set of advisors manage to miss the moments --like the march in France-- that could make extend President Obama's shelf life as a force on the world and national stage."

...

"One of the students said that she did no see anything wrong with same-sex sexuality. When I described what male homosexuals did, her draw dropped. From there I went to describe the moral implications, the biological inappropriateness and illogical of same-sex sexuality, and the possible legal ramifications that are coming to pass today.

"To say anything negative against same-sex sexuality can have several bad consequences. If you are in any part of the wedding business, refusal to serve same-sex couples in “marriage” can land you in a great deal of legal trouble."  Read more here.
