And let's not forget his "hot mic" moment afterwards about Bibi! What a freakin' embarrassment. As you stated, he was most likely jacked on Adderall! And also most likely was outfitted with several sizes of Depends!

I just really wanted the Speaker to pull a Pelosi and tear up the speech at the end. Sigh. No joy. He should have been "Gonged" and hauled off the stage!

I was glad he didn't play jack in the box and jump up and down when the Dems gave Biden a standing ovation for completing another sentence!

Johnson has much more class than Pig-Lousy! BUT---he should've LOOKED at her and pretended he was going to do so and then laugh at the crone!

I like the analogy with a baseball pitcher. Old Joe threw nothing but high heat at the heads of opposing batters, except for the occasional spitter goobered up by his mush mouth and several knuckle-headed knuckleballs. No artful curves or surprising change-ups. Apart from two errors forced by MTG, it was a perfect game: perfectly dreadful, predictable, and boring. I left during the seventh inning in order to beat the traffic home before I got too drunk.

The Speaker of the House should have just had a big bowl of ice cream at the lectern to calm down Dementia Joe … who recited his SOTU as if he were on meth. Was that Heisenberg passing off some Blue Sky to Angry Joe as they shook hands and clapped each other’s backs during the procession into the House Chamber?

Or perhaps he was just sundowning as his friends over at the liberal AARP might suggest.

But then again, I don’t claim to be a doctor of any sort, but perhaps “Doktor” Jill should have been there, next to him to hold his hand, or he could have sucked her fingers to calm him down.

In the meantime, I would humbly suggest that the state of POTUS is demented, while the state of the Union is slouching towards Gomorrah.

Hat tip to the late Judge Robert Bork …

I was reminded of an old lawyer saying that had some relevance to Joe's spittle-flecked diatribe: When the facts are against you, pound the law; when the law is against you, pound the facts; when the facts and the law are against you, pound the table. We saw a whole lot of table pounding on Thursday night, to which the trained monkeys in the audience responded in kind. Dear God, what an embarassment. The next time some goofy republican suggest "working with the loyal opposition," or sponsors something in the name of "bipartisanship," I will be sorely tempted take a page from the book of H. Goering and simply pull my pistol. (Even if he really didn't say it, he should have!)

Yes, he is a pound dog so I guess he's an American breed. Her, not so much.

"bragging that he flaunted their order prohibiting him from shifting billions of dollars of debt from people who incurred it"

Flaunted or flouted?

Glenn, your last question is an easy one.

Democrats, seemingly always failing up, with the dedicated lying assistance from the media industrial complex.
