America is not a creedal nation. Go read John Jay's address in Federalist No. 2:
"Providence has been pleased to give us this one connected country to one united people -a people descended from the same ancestors, speaking the same language, professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very similar in their manners and customs....."
That doesn't describe the multiracial/multicultural flophouse that the 1965 immigration act and renegade congresses and presidents since that time have created. A real nation is comprised of people with common ancestors and ancestry. We no longer have that in 2023 America which is why we're fast becoming a basket case nation and can't agree on anything.
The founders and early Americans would be horrified by what America has become.
I don't think there was enough contention during the speech. It would have been more entertaining if shopping bags of rotten tomatoes were circulated prior to the speech. When you've had enough of the old man's bullshit, a well-thrown tomato can really be cathartic. Bonus points if you can stop him from talking.
I liked the responsive Republicans. Reminded me of being in a black church, which Biden should be used to, having grown up in the black church - on his word as a Biden!
Biden also exploited California's "Lunar" New Year massacre to ban "assault-weapons". The problem is California already has an "assault-weapons" ban and the gun in question was a semi-automatic pistol. First, Democrats let criminal migrants in, then they exploit their crimes in order to violate our constitutional rights.
From ‘Day One,’ as Biden liked to brag from his basement on the campaign trail, feeble Joe cancelled the Canadian oil pipeline and thus signaled to all U.S. oil companies to cut back production. This single act, combined with additional regulatory restrictions on oil and gas drilling, instantly spiked the price of energy, causing worldwide inflation and disrupting the global economy. The entire world is still reeling from the hyperinflation and economic destruction that this babbling fool released on the world like a plague. Davos’ meat puppet then followed up by provoking Russia just enough to invade Ukraine. Further driving global oil prices and inflation higher. This led to economic sanctions on Russia that did little to harm Russia but crushed the economies of Germany and most other European nations. Anyone with common sense would have predicted that Biden would be a terrible President. But no one could have predicted the catastrophe that this ancient, irredeemably corrupt Washington lifer has unleashed on the world, let alone the U.S. It took a special kind of imbecile to destroy so much in so little time. It will take the better part of a decade to recover from the excesses of a purely evil cabal of deep-state/media/DNC power mad conspirators who installed this drooling fraud and his endless ruin on the world.
His emphasis on buying American and bringing manufacturing back was strategically smart. Biden did learn from Trump and resort to protectionist trade policies to an extent. It's probably why we got blown off in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. This can help him a lot for re-election.
It is so sad that so very few people realize that America is the“...beautifully written governing documents, from John Winthrop's 1630 sermons to the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.” It is not the free Iphones or the Kardashian cult or even its spectacular geography. As revolutionary as the discovery that the Earth was not flat was the Founding Fathers codification of individual liberties granted by God to the people who allowed the government to exist at their sufferance.
Republicans blew a golden opportunity to chant 'Let's go Brandon' every time Biden lied or got applause from Democrats. Biden would have melted down on stage. As usual, Republicans came up short. Republicans, despite Ronna Romney McDaniel's best efforts as DNC mole, did manage one big win in the mid-terms. They finally pried the national charge card from the bony, wagging fingers of the wicked witch of the West. $31 trillion later.
I didn't actually watch the speech, I listened to it as I drove around (thanks, NPR, now when do I get my Nina Toten-bag?).
The Democrats are crowing because Biden didn't step on his dick during the already-forgotten speech, but that's kinda the point: Biden is not a real thing, he's obviously not calling the shots at the White House. What Biden did Tuesday night was just say stuff., it didn't have to make sense, it didn't have to be grounded in actual fact, it just had to use the correct words. The whole speech was like bad AI.
And so now we have our entire country waiting for the 2024 elections, but that's a long way away, and with the way the border is being over run, it's not clear we will make it to 2024.
Hey Coulter, I'm still on the fence as to whether you should be allowed to vote or not, but I am certainly appreciative of all that you do to create this format.
I certainly wasn't in the mood for this Cringe of the Union address and was glad to read your observations and additional info.
I'm with you, Steven -- but all the other ladies have to give it up, too. BTW, I submitted my 400th piece of evidence against women's suffrage in my video with Mickey this week.
Putting some of the ridiculousness aside: Listening to conversations on most subjects such as culture, politics, geo politics and political strategy has changed a lot. I've been on this planet for 61 years and started checking out politics at a very young, and I have never seen such an overt push by our own government to destroy this country.
I'm not shocked or cowering in fear, but it certainly does take away from the enjoyment of observing it all.
Biden has always been good at reading the script off the teleprompter but he doesn't even know what they do to CHILDREN in transition. If he does know then he is sicker than I thought. The "rich" are supposed to pay more but Brandon and the swamp have made the rules for years. Manufacturing that have left these shores as the swamp profited and now were to believe he's going to bring it back. The swamp abandoned the working class years ago and the deplorables hired Trump in a shot to right the ship but now we know how threatened they felt.
Two add ons for good measure. The knuckle head said he wanted to have a ‘conversion’ as opposed to maybe a ‘conversation’ or was it the other way around? Who knows?
The second is when he singled out the Ukrainian ambassador, presenting her as the ‘ Ukrainian. Ambassador’ and his sweet gesture in inviting her to ‘stand up Ambassador, stand up’. He could’nt pronounce her name off the teleprompter or he just simply could not remember her name. He did remember the important names however.
Hilarious, Ann. When I decided to walk my dog last night at 9 I knew I could count on you for the SOTU highlights.
Yes, that America is an idea lie is especially annoying.
“The “America is an idea” scam is meant to convince us that our country is nothing special and we have no right to prevent anyone else from moving here.”
Unfortunately, conservatives have been some of the biggest spreaders of it. For example, Peter Schwamm, one of the founders of the Claremont Review, is famous for asking his father why they were leaving Hungary and emigrating to America. “We are Americans,” his father said. “We were just born in the wrong country.”
Straussians and neoconservatives just LOVE that story.
Yes, but actually, you can turn the "America is an idea" argument around. Just say, "well, if it's just an idea, then stay where you live and think about the wonderful idea that is America."
I met a young woman named Saria.
Come sit near the front so I see ya!
I’ll smile if I dare,
and hope you won’t care,
when later I’m sniffin’ your hair. 😛

Thanks Ms Coulter
Love the humor in the articles you write
U R great

Thank you James.
Thank you for the SOTU highlights reel Ann. Sad. I am speechless.
All it needed was an air-raid siren.

Many thanks Ann for driving this point home.

Will have to reread tomorrow . Thanks. 🍎

Stay Strong Patriots.
Sparklingly fun reading Ann.

Yes, whenever you hear "America is an idea," reach for your gun.
Yes, but actually, you can turn the "America is an idea" argument around. Just say, "well, if it's just an idea, then stay where you live and think about the wonderful idea that is America."
Yes!
That was -- and really still is -- the true message of the Statue of Liberty, not the sentiments of the little Jewish girl’s poem.
Great point!
