Don't you wish we could go back to writing the president's State of the Union message? Write it up, have the president sign it, and mail it in to the Congress, et al.
I felt that way after watching a rerun of the speech.
Some in the media are angry that some on the GOP side reacted to President Biden's words.
Yes, calling him a "liar" is probably too much, but what do you do when the president is lying?
Last night, President Biden chose to play politics and one side of the room had had enough.
His speech was devoted to fantasy or fairy tales.
This is a good summary from David Harsanyi:
And there is more. Demagoguery plus demagoguery means more demagoguery.
He could have brought the country together by thanking the Trump administration for the vaccines or the various programs that kept businesses open. Or, he could have thanked the Texas and Florida governors for leading us out of the COVID depression by opening their states.
He could have said (what he once believed) that abortion should be rare. He could have admitted that he listened too much to the immigration activists on the border and the climate change gang on oil production. He could have said that our big cities are killing fields and district attorneys need to show better judgment.
In other words, he could have spoken to the whole nation, not just the "blues" who don't want him to run in 2024. Instead, he gave a campaign speech.
If you lie, then people will scream back or deliver what we saw on Tuesday night.
