Hot Air from the House of Representives.

1-Yes, I watched the entire annual joint session of Congress's U.S.Presidentional State of the Union Address, last night. 2-Took copious notes, for fear of falling asleep. Came away with a one word thought...why? Explain later. 2-It's a fact LDP have less control on time management, than do CTPR. Got started late again 9:15PM and lasted 'till 10:19PM. Some 6 thousand words, 85 ovations. 3-Critique of the Address: it is fitting to add an * after most pp's statements. Since a footnote of facts is required to explain the blarney (HOT AIR). 4-To the best of my recall the #3 U.S. President Thomas Jefferson DR-VA halted giving a annual live addresses. He sent transmittals to the Capital, probably To the Speaker of the House who read what was stated. Jefferson thought the addresses were boring, worthless, waste of time. 5-That became the venue, until the first Professor/#27 US President W. Wilson D-NJ re-introduced the in person presentation. This has been the case right up to the 2nd Professor/ US. President #44.* 6-The only event that I retained from last night, came late in the presentation. An extended standing ovation for a recovering Army Sergaent and his dad up in the balcony. The sergeant was on his 10th deployment to Afghaistan when was struck with an IED. 7-Then pp made a statement that the war in Afghaistan will be over at years' end.** *pp was not a tendered professor at U of Chicago, rather an instructor who taught Constitutionial Law. ** a statement was made about a small rear detail remaning, if agreement can be made with the Afghan government. 1) Used for training Afghans, 2) fight enemy that might pop up. 8-All three equal branches of government should meet to discuss the need for the future STATE of the UNION ADDRESSES.
