Love this, Corey!! I listened to the SOTU in bed and I was pleasantly surprised. He came out swinging and we need more of that.

If it weren’t for that last sentence, I would have subscribed.

There’s never a good time for vulgarity. Name calling is what I hear, & distain from our former president.

Helen, perhaps you would like to listen to this weeks POA podcast regarding Pilgrims and prudishness? Please stop clutching your pearls and take some deep breaths.

If I offended you, then I apologize.

Fortunately, I choose what I read. Whenever foul language is used, I move on to something more meaningful.

Peace out ✌️

And another thing if you don't know vulgar language, how did you know what the last word was? SHAME ON YOU FOR KNOWING VULGAR LANGUAGE!

Get over yourself, Corey is a comedian. I thought it was the best couplet of the poem.

Hello.

Perhaps I came off as self righteous. If I offended you then I apologize.

I choose what I read. When foul language is used, I move on.

Peace 🙏 out ✌️

You didn't offend me you just struck me as a self-righteous blue-haired (in the decades old sense of that word). Sorry, if I misinterpreted. Grace and peace.

Well done, CHO! I recall having the SOTU on in the background while cooking dinner, almost afraid to look, but as he talked I found myself engaged more and more and I wished so much that he had called out the hypocritical Republicans even more than he did.

I love this. You are correct: This is not the time for democrats to whine. We have a two-party system. Buck up dems: Vote for Biden and save democracy.

Totally agree! I recall from the 2016 election people saying stupid shit like, “the lesser of two evils is still evil”. I’m not sure how or why they were dumb enough to believe the completely false propaganda about Hilary Clinton, however, if you are absolutely going to have one of the “two evils@, and you have zero third choice, and it is absolutely going to be one or the other, why would you NOT choose the LESSER of the “two evils”? The term “the lesser of two evils is still evil” doesn’t make any sense if the choices binary and you are absolutely going to have one or the other. I was so appalled that the idiots who were posting this kind of thing did not realize that!

From north of the 49th it looks like Mr. dictator-wanna-be and his "died-blonde" and other lackies will win by a blizzarding avalanche and form a Dictators League with all the other burgeoning fascists worldwide. Please stimulate the Democrats to get back to being democrats instead of whatever wishywashy fearful muddleheads they are now. Maybe fascism is still stoppable across the world - including in the US.

I've been calling her Marjorie Taylor Gangrene.

That sow doesn't deserve to have my first name. I've been tempted to change mine, but that would mean she wins.
