When the media has your back

Quote
Biden didn’t use illegal to refer to “immigrants”. Immigrants come legally.
He used it to refer to illegal aliens. In this case, an alleged illegal alien murderer. Alien is the legal term under US law/Immigration & Nationality

I don't have to agree with him to recognize what a SOTU speech should be. Here's Robert Kennedy's:

https://twitter.com/i/status/1765916167737344260

The last three minutes are well worth listening to. No attacks on "the other side". No "because of me the country is the bestest ever (despite your lying eyes)". Recognition of what's wrong with a message of unity to fix it. The main contenders could both learn from this guy.

Not everyone thinks Senator Britt hit it out of the park.

I'm pretty sure no one thinks that.  =)

She is getting raked over the coals from conservatives as well. To the point that while I think this was a bad choice and bad optics, I'm really feeling sorry for her.

I've got to wonder who all was involved in this. There's no way it's just her coming up with a speech without input from some strategists. The SOTU rebuttal is a key speech for either side.

Apologizes for calling the guy who murdered Laken Riley and mutilated her body an illegal, but doesn't apologize for getting her name wrong. I guess it plays to his base.

I listened to the first half Of the state of the Union address on "Louder with Crowder" and I was sick to my stomach of it at about the halfway point and went back to doing something more productive. I saw clips of some of what happened afterwards and the lies were just so horrendous it wasn't funny! Yeah, here are all these idiots jumping up and clapping and cheering for a demented old circus monkey. It was just sad.
I might not last very long or be very effective but I'll be a real pain in the ass for a minute!

That idiot Marjorie Taylor Greene is catching a bunch of flack because she wore a MAGA hat to the State of the Onion.

Apparently that's against the rules because you're not allowed to wear campaign items to the State of the Onion address.

Of course, it's perfectly fine for President Dementia to use the entire speech as a campaign speech...

She's out there, but I have to give her props for getting Biden to say the name, even if he flubbed it. I don't really like either side of the aisle wearing "agenda clothing". I also get sick of the far left congresswomen doing those stupid white outfits, or I think one year, didn't they dress like Handmaid Tale characters?

. . . I also get sick of the far left congresswomen doing those stupid white outfits, . . .
When they wore white for Trump's SOTU address, he SHOULD have looked at them and said "Wow, all those white dresses . . . I haven't seen so many Democrats all wearing white gathered together in one place since I saw old newsreel footage of a Klan cross burning. I hope none of you brought matches tonight."
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

A few years ago when all those morons showed up in white someone on faceplace posted "I've not seen to many Democrats in white since they all used to belong to the Ku Klux Klan.

I reposted it on my board and some of my "friends" went absolutely nuts.

I laughed... hard. And proceed to give them a history lesson all the way up to Robert Byrd.

I'm truly surprised that my faceplace account survived that.

Probably still goes here. Interesting that the far left liberals of 2006, including Brandon and Chris Mathews - Chris Mathews! - would now be considered far right extremist with their views. This is only 18 years.

Progressive Democrats absolutely refuse to believe that Robert Byrd was a democrat. Especially the politically active black democrats...
 
They should have teamed Trump with a group of fast speechwriters, put 'em in a small room to watch the thing, and then had him read the rebuttal. With him promising him to go word-for-word... And have at least a couple of the speechifyers be some of the folks who will Never Work In Hollywood Again...
