seeing the speech

While many are focused on the President Obama’s rhetoric last night, his plan to pull our nation out of its economic morass, a few moments before and during the speech struck me:

• As the Supreme Court was walking down the House aisle, Justice Thomas, entering behind Justice Ginsberg realized she was receiving lots of well wishes, and with the look on his face saying “I’m not waiting for cancer lady, where’s my seat?” he moved past her and the well-wishing members.
  
• Vice President Biden consistently showed exaggerated facial expressions reacting to things Obama said. He’d likely be a horrible poker player.
  
• When President Obama spoke of the need for everyone to work together to come up with solutions I was waiting for him to add “except for Michelle Bachman, that bitch crazy.”

More thoughts on the meat later if packing for Portland proves productive as planned.
