There is a new internet thing out there.

“Send Nancy a New Copy”

Gives her two addresses and a link where to get a copy of the speech.

I don't engage with crazy people, and Pelosi is certifiably nuts.

Ha! I had the same idea. Once again, I wasn't very original, but I think I might do it.

Tearing up a state of the union speech, a thing mandated in the Constitution, is at least tearing up a bit of American history. I can also see an argument for saying it's a little like burning the flag.

Personally, I was inspired. When he mentioned the Second Amendment, the hair stood up on my arms (and then again when he said America would plant a flag on Mars).

Since Reagan's first state of the union, I have tried to hear every one, and I have a personal ritual of American freedom I always practice. I like to respectfully and carefully clean a firearm while I watch and listen.

Last night, my Kimber got a good therapeutic scrubbing and my lever guns got a wipe-down. USA! USA! USA! :txflag:

I had to find a picture and look for myself. Yep, you are correct. 3 silver containers on a silver tray... weird

One thing really stood out to me last night...

His previous SOU addresses, while very good were liberally peppered with "I did this" and "I did that". It almost seemed there was a danger of breaking his arm from patting himself on the back.

Last night was much more subdued, using "we did this" and giving (or at least sharing) credit with others much more often. He sounded much less narcissistic. I think it was a much better look for him.

After the impeachment failure, Joe Biden taking 4th place in the primary, and the SOTU2020... Nancy knows in her heart the establishment democrats are finished... and she'll be out of power soon, so she moved quickly to destroy the evidence of her crimes :biggrinjester:

What was amazing to me was that so many of the Dems looked genuinely depressed that a record number of American's are now employed. Their reaction to Trump's speech clearly demonstrated to every American that watched it that the Democrats are the party of power hungry imperialists who simply want to buy votes with taxpayer money other government favors. All too many Dems chose NOT to celebrate America's success and do not support the US Constitution, as seen by their reaction to Trump's statement of support of the 2nd Amendment. My hats off the the Dems that did celebrate America's success. Power obsessed America haters are a cancer to this nation.
