My wife and I are watching the President enter the chamber, and we both think he is looking decrepit.

Was thinking the same things. And look at his eyes, black eyes in a plastic face

I can't watch this, I got my sanity to think of. I'll catch the condensed version later

Watching him would do nothing good for my health.  I'll wait for the reports tomorrow.

No offense to her, and she seems like a nice and sincere person, but I think the Rs made a poor choice for the Republican response. While she made good points, her voice was breaking like she was going to cry through most of it, and to me, it came off as weak.

Also, as I catch the key points in the reviews this morning, Good for Marjorie Taylor Green for pushing Biden to say Laken Riley's name, but of course, "Lincoln Riley". At least he made another gaff (from the dem side) and said "illegal", which pissed off the progs.  :rofl:

Also, the father of one of the marines killed during the Afghanistan pullout was in the crowd and yelled out during the speech. He was arrested for some of the same charges that 06JAN protestors got.

Going by his eyes and general demeanor no one can tell me he was wasn't hopped up on drugs. My guess is they'll keep him under wraps for a few days to recover.

He arrived late and dove right into his speech without waiting for the traditional introduction by the Speaker. Last minute dosing and no introduction in his rehearsals?

Did anyone keep a lie count or did they give up after 15 minutes?

Twitchy did a live blog, which it appears they archived, and it looks like all the bingo cards were easily filled in the first 15 minutes.

Crowder did a livestream.  I came in to the middle for a few minutes.  I realized quickly I didn't care to listen to Biden take credit for stuff and brag about all the stuff he was going to do (but hadn't bothered to do before) without give any details at all about how it would be done. 

Maybe it is being an engineer or something, I really dislike when some politician says they will solve a problem without providing the slightest detail of how that will happen.  Maybe I am old enough to know they really have no idea what they are doing.

Plus I got tired of her framing so many things 'as a mom', 'as a family', etc. to support her statements and opinions.

Filming in the kitchen was probably bad optics as well, outside of the tradwife community. I mean, Kamala, AOC, and Pocahontas have all filmed in their kitchens, but progs get a pass. When Rs do it, it's Handmaid's Tale.

Nancy. Pelosi.

They sped it up slightly, which only makes it funnier. The same speech for the last three years.  :rofl:
