WORLD NEWS BUREAU EXCLUSIVE
Live blogging by Scooter Van Neuter
Due to a scheduling conflict (rerun of Blossom) I was forced to record the President's State of the Union address last night so I could live blog it today. Let's see what's happening.
There's a large room full of politicians. It appears to be a courtroom. In the middle is a watchtower manned by Joe Biden and that orange guy. These two have a great vantage point and are probably doing everything in their power not to spit on the milling underlings below.
President Obama just came out like a rock star. The room is going crazy. Nancy Pelosi is either having an orgasm or pooping a bowling pin. Joe Biden is clapping like a seal on meth, and grinning like he just discovered a free decoder ring at the bottom of his glass of Scotch. Even Michelle Obama looks happy, a glistening film of what appears to be bacon grease coating her feral lips.
Finally, the President starts talking. What a minute, instead of telling us what the hell is going on, he's reading a children's book off the teleprompter! The tale is about a teacher, doctor, mother, farmer, etc. doing everyday things that make our country the greatest in the world. It's a heartwarming story and I can't help but think of how grateful I am that I'm surrounded by Americans like these, instead of dirty foreigners who eat with their hands and talk like retards. God bless the USA.
After I stop crying, I try to figure out what the story has to do with President Obama or the state of the union. Is the President implying he personally helped these people do heartwarming things or did they do them because he somehow created the proper environment? I'm confused and getting a headache, so I decide to watch an episode of Who's The Boss while I de-lint my navel.
Afterward, I switch back to the SOTU. President Obama is droning on and on about a bunch of stuff that's so uninteresting I can't even tell what the hell he's talking about. I hop over to Animal Planet and watch a facinating show about the mating habits of fruit bats. I make mental notes to (1) apply what I've learned on my new girlfriend next time she's drunk, and (2) make some interesting modifications to my Batman costume before next Halloween.
Back at the SOTU I'm disappointed yet relieved to see President Obama not talking. He's now strolling around the courtroom shaking everyone's hand like he just cured cancer. I notice Joe Biden evidently peed himself at some point, and make a mental note to monitor Ebay for the chair - it would go great in my home office.
As the President works the room everyone continues to clap like crazy, even some of the Republicans. The President must have announced something really great at the end, like he moved the Super Bowl to Phoenix, or maybe Kim Kardashian was crushed by a yak. Whatever it was, it was obviously fantastic, and I joined in giving President Obama a standing ovation for it.
Summery: All in all, I felt it was a solid speech. It sounds like the President ran the country perfectly last year, and I really liked the way he looked into my soul while actually reading the teleprompter - only Katie Couric does it better, and that's high praise indeed.
