The State Of The Union

We did not listen to The State Of The Union address last night.  In fact, we watched a movie.

Why, you ask?

Well, let me put it this way  --  as a long term "recovering person" I long ago was taught one of Al-Anon's basic truths, "don't listen to what the drunk says - look at what the drunk does".

As a current member of "Obamanon", I say, "Do not listen to what Obama says  --  look at what Obama does".  So far, I see him as a kinder, gentler, version of our "Wall Street Overlords", a kinder gentler version of the "Corporate State" that both parties seem to represent.  The lesser of two evils.

Let us hope he proves me wrong.
