Fixing Education in America is Job One
De Omnibus Dubitandum
By Rich Kozlovich
Today's P&D will deal solely with Biden's State of the Union speech, which Wolf Blitzer says "I think this was the best speech I have ever heard [Biden] deliver." And, CNN’s Chris Wallace claims, Biden’s SOTU had ‘brilliant’ moments. ‘Quite a piece of political showmanship’ Imagine that. Well, that seals it. If these two dimwits think he looked great, then we know, Biden looked like a buffoon.
First off, I never watch these dog and pony shows. People on one side of the aisle jumping up and applauding wildly over statements by the President, while the other side sits on their hands, and in recent years members of Congress yelling "liar" during the speech. Even when it's true, it's bad manners. This isn't England's Parliament, it's the Congress of the United States.
As I said, I never watch these speeches, because I find them torturous. I do read the commentaries of those who are paid to sit through the torture, and some even love it, as Biden promises to fix problems he spent half a century creating. Imagine that
At any rate, here are my picks regarding Biden and Biden's SOTU speech, which I think can be defined in one word. Bizarre!
And no one made a big show of tearing up his speech, remarkable!
- After last night, Scott Johnson - I thought the flight of the Chinese spy balloon across the United States was a national embarrassment, but it was nothing compared to President Biden’s State of the Union performance last night. I thought he hit the high point with his congratulation of Kevin McCarthy for ascending to the Speakership in the first few seconds of his speech. The speed of the descent varied, but it was downhill all the way from there. That means it was a long, long way downhill...............Biden wants to “finish the job” he has started. The phrase appears in the text of his speech 12 times. I think that has an ominous ring. Finishing the job will finish us off............
- Beijing Biden’s Hate of the Union = Two More Years of Misery, By Daniel Greenfield - While millions of Americans, for the first time since the Great Depression, cannot afford to buy eggs, Biden boasted about his economic successes to applause from special interests and jeers from those representatives standing up for the beleaguered people of the nation.............
- 15 Outright Lies Beijing Biden Told During His Hate of the Union Address, By Tristan Justice and Jordan Boyd - The speech was remarkably similar to last year’s address, riddled with falsehood after falsehood and lie after lie. The Great Depression ended three years before Biden’s birth, but he’s trying to bring it back. Under Biden, the price of everything from bread to gasoline to eggs to homes has soared out of reach. No wonder that polls show even the majority of Democrats don’t want him to run again.............
- President Trump Responds to Beijing Biden’s Hate of the Union: ‘End the Destruction of Our Country’, Henry Rodgers - Former President Donald Trump responded to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address in a video released late Tuesday night after the speech. The Daily Caller obtained a copy of the response, which Trump called the “real State of the Union.” Trump’s speech focuses on the border crisis, inflation, and high gas prices. He also says that Biden’s Department Of Justice is “waging war” on free speech and persecuting Biden’s political opponents. Trump mentions that he is running for president in 2024 and that he hopes to complete the “unfinished business” of making America great again................
- Beijing Biden Goes Off Script, Says US Still Needs Oil & Gas, By Thomas Catenacci - President Biden appeared to go off script during his State of the Union address Tuesday evening, saying that the U.S. would need oil and natural gas for many years to come."We are still going to need oil and gas for a while," Biden said during his speech. Biden's comments were quickly met with a mixed reaction as some Republicans appeared to cheer the remarks...........
- Joe Biden Humiliated As Republicans Bust Out Laughing During Ridiculous SOTU Moment , - President Joe Biden made his annual mockery of himself and of Democrats’ ridiculous policies during Tuesday’s State of the Union speech, and at one point got roundly humiliated by Republicans when they all laughed at one of his remarks. Biden, speaking about his administration’s commitment to move away from fossil fuels, stated at one point that “we are going to need oil at least for another decade” before being interrupted by a cacophony of uproarious laughter.............
- Biden Raises Eyebrows for Going Off Script to Make This Comment About China's President, By Leah Barkoukis - President Biden’s State of the Union address was full of bizarre moments, but one that stood out to lawmakers and viewers alike was when the commander in chief went off script to shout about Chinese President Xi Jinping. “Name me a world leader who would change places with Xi Jinping!” Biden yelled amid a portion of his speech about how democracies have become stronger, while autocracies have gotten weaker. “Name me one! Name me one!" ........Sen. Marco Rubio said it was just one of the “bizarre” lines in his speech. .........Basically any dictator on the planet would love to be president for life of the second-largest economy in the world and a rapidly growing military that can fly balloons over the continental United States and have nothing happen to them. And that joins a list of a lot of bizarre things tonight.”..........
- WATCH: Speaker McCarthy and Republicans LAUGH OUT LOUD at Biden’s Lies About Fast Food Cashiers Signing Non-Compete Contracts - Biden’s SOTU Address was full of lies and disinformation. At one point Joe Biden said cashiers at fast food restaurants were first to sign non-compete contracts. Republicans started laughing out loud at this nonsense............
- Biden’s Claim that Inflation Isn’t His Fault, February 4, 2023 - Biden claims inflation was already there when he came into office. It's true--because of the massive spending by his own party in Congress, spending that... read more
- Biden Calls for Amnesty for Millions of Illegal Aliens at State of the Union, By John Binder - President Joe Biden, on Tuesday evening, called for amnesty for millions of illegal aliens living throughout the United States during his third State of the Union (SOTU) address..........Such a plan would ensure that millions of illegal aliens living across the U.S. can secure green cards and, eventually, naturalized American citizenship. Those given amnesty would also help hugely inflate the labor market, flooding working and lower-middle class industries with cheaper labor to hire for businesses...........

- Fact Check: Biden Claims He Created as Many Jobs in 2 Years as Any President Created in 4
- Competence is dead and diversity killed it, By M.B. Mathews -Has affirmative action hiring practices caused overall competence to plummet? The record appears to show exactly that. For no good reasons whatsoever,
competence was allowed to die on the vine in order to give the less
competent a leg up. Not equality but superiority rules the hiring,
firing, and education of Americans. Worse, many of those who were
affirmatively hired do not do as good a job as those whose excellence
was obvious. You can see it in customer service, which for many
businesses is abysmally incompetent. There is a resentful casualness in
those who are hired to serve others that would not have been acceptable
even two decades ago. The competence level one deals with on a daily
basis is on life support...............
Final thought. Scott Johnson said he found, on average, the "Democratic congressional contingent struck me as an unusually unattractive crew." Imagine that!
Constant as the North Star
