I just watched the <a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_the_Union_address” target=”_blank”>State of the Union Address</a>. Sadly, the first I’ve ever watched. Following it, came the <a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Party_%28United_States%29″ target=”_blank”>GOP</a> response. Why the GOP gets a response when we’re a single government with a single leader is beyond my understanding, but it is what it is; precisely what’s wrong with a bipartisan system.<br/><br/>A few points my [girl-like throwing] governor, <a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_McDonnell” target=”_blank”>Bob McDonnell</a> said didn’t ring well with me:<br/><ul><li>He’s so quick to throw Obama under the bus for not solving the financial mess “his guy” got us in over the past decade. <a href=”http://zfacts.com/metaPage/lib/National-Debt-GDP.gif” target=”_blank”>Before “his guy,” we were doing great</a>. You really have the audacity to give “our guy” crap for not pulling us out of a massive hole in a year? Unbelievable that after a year, he thinks his party knows what’s best after they didn’t have a clue for so long.<br/></li><li>He actually said we have the best health-care system in the world. Ahahahahaha! This had to be a slip up. I’m one of the lucky few who has always had great coverage, but I know plenty of folk not so lucky… He clearly does not. <a href=”http://www.photius.com/rankings/healthranks.html” target=”_blank”>Must be nice living in that little bubble without Google</a>.</li><li>He pronounced “nuclear” correctly. Bravo.</li></ul>Ungh.<br/>
