Fan Mail [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
"the blaming of the past administration is pathetically unpresidential"

I'll bet it sucks when someone points out that you and your party f***ed the country royally for eight straight years, and cannot wait to do it for another eight. But it's the truth.

The amount of this debt is on pace to double in five years, and triple in ten. The federal debt is already over $100,000 per household. This is simply unsustainable.Mass Romantic was a much better album than Electric Version.

Bob McDonnell, proposing a return to a Jeffersonian economic structure, all gentleman-farmers and such.

The past administration screed everything up.
But we will not point fingers...uhh... starting now!

SCOTUS reaction shots were great, but military shots better. reaction to DADT repeal looked like botoxed military action figurines. full dress but no expressive human capability.

j0hn d., what do you think about the taxpayer bailout of radiohead

And our solutions aren't thousand-page bills that no one has fully read, after being crafted behind closed doors with special interests. In fact, many of our proposals are available online at solutions.gop.gov, and we welcome your ideas on Facebook and Twitter. I understand that Stephin Merritt has been asked to write a song cycle incorporating many of our proposals, but has declined. Fucking, whatever.

The President and I agree on expanding the number of high-quality charter schools, and rewarding teachers for excellent performance. More school choices for parents and students mean more accountability and greater achievement. A child's educational opportunity should be determined by her intellect and work ethic, not by whether she has the black vinyl bag edition of Headache. Shit, there were only, what, 2000 of those pressed? I have one, though. Way out ahead of that curve. Bought it at Wuxtry in Athens. Spring break, 1988. Good times.

I cannot possibly live in a country in which Vampire Weekend outsold Whitney Houston's last album. My friends, this is unacceptable.

Re: Citizens United [Daniel Foster]

UPDATE: A reader put me onto this, and CNN just confirmed it. They have Associate Justice Alito shaking his head and mouthing the words "no, that's not right," when the president suggested that the Citizens United decision overturned a "century" of law.

We'll have to check the tape, but very unusual for a Supreme Court Justice to register a reaction at the State of the Union!

Blue Fucks Like Ben Nelson (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 28 January 2010 03:40 (fourteen years ago) link

Yeah I am disappointed that McDonnell has spent so much of this speech talking about his rare collection of test pressings.

C-L, Thursday, 28 January 2010 03:40 (fourteen years ago) link

As our Founders clearly stated, and we Governors understand, Whitney is awesome. Fuck an indie band imo.

And Justice Alito is mouthing, "Fuck an indie. Susan Doyle best incarnates the spirit of the Establishment Clause."

Now, we should pledge as Democrats, Republicans and Independents--Americans all---to work together to leave this nation a better place than we found it. God Bless you, and bring back shitgaze.

all you cynical nitpicks

continued renditions, escalating in Afghanistan, free money for banker thieves = "nitpicks." God bless you, you're the nightmare, bnw.

i heard sufjan stevens was in the gallery and i don't know why they cut his inspiring real american story out of the speech

Oooh, McDonnell took 12 minutes, his boys checked the fuck out of there.

Hahaha Brian Williams is calling out the placement of the token black and Asian people behind McDonnell.

love for bnw but Morbius is OTM. it is not nitpicking to give a shit about torture & war, no matter how many times people in the pro-Vampire-Weekend camp claim it is.

i think far as military and SCOTUS go, they have a general understanding that they don't react to the speech, don't applaud - doesn't matter what's being said

kicker conspiracy (b. favre ha ha) (daria-g), Thursday, 28 January 2010 03:44 (fourteen years ago) link

I used to be pretty relaxed about stuff like war and torture but then i saw bomb blown up to 96 point futura

Mordy, Thursday, 28 January 2010 03:45 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah i'm not surprised the military dudes didn't react

my impression was that the military dudes are supposed to stay stone-faced the whole time

The Difference Between the President's Speech and Governor McDonnell's [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

The president had some optimistic salt on his. McDonnell exuded it in his.
