coz nobody spells anything out anymore ...

I was expecting some discussion re: tonights state of the union address. Just posturing? ("Year of Action") ... or setting a new agenda?

"In this year of action, the president will seek out as many opportunities as possible to work with Congress in a bipartisan way. But when American jobs and livelihoods depend on getting something done, he will not wait for Congress," Dan Pfeiffer, senior adviser at the White House, wrote in a blog post.

'I've got a pen and I've got a phone. And that's all I need.'
- U.S. President Barack Obama"President Obama has a pen and he has a phone, and he will use them to take executive action and enlist every American — business owners and workers, mayors and state legislators, young people, veterans, and folks in communities from across the country — in the project to restore opportunity for all."

I thought this post was entitled "soju" and was wondering if Bob was drunk again.

Much as I love bashing our mainstream media, they do pretty much have the tea leaves read correctly here. Even Harry Reid threw the president under the bus today, as he scuttled the unemployment extension bill instead of bring it to the floor and risk open amendments.

The joke today was that the chamber got so quiet you could hear Obama's approval rating slip.
