What I cannot remember is the level of jeering, boos and sarcastic applause Obama's SOTU elicits from the Right.

Let's use Joe Wilson as an example. You are more concerned that he was rude, even though it's since been proven Wilson was correct?

Please cite why Wilson was correct. IIRC, he was insisting that illegal immigrants would be eligible for health insurance under the ACA.

In fact, Wilson was seeing the writing on the wall, that Obama planned a messive amnesty which would make current illegals eligible for health care.

And saying 'oops' and turning a blind eye to falsified documents, etc prove Wilson correct:

see Daily Caller and other publications documenting this very fact

Absolutely he was rude. Congress is an institution. It isn't about party. He cheapened the institution and it doesn't matter if the President is R or D or right or wrong.

Delivered with unveiled hatred. Look at his face - wow

Obama unmasked...

Oh, puhhh-lease. We have the far right extremists in Congress attacking Obama daily, full of hatred, vitriol, and lies about Benghazi and Death Panels, yet when he zings them back with a little comedy, suddenly it's "Oh, look at the angry black man full of hatred!"

That wasnt comedy. There was no glint in his eye, no smile. That was a comment delivered with malice by a President who intends to ignore congress and do what he wants.

Why shouldn't he ignore Congress? They are ignoring him, so it's only fair that he return the favor.

Oh, but it's not narrow minded Republicans who started it in the first place. I see.

According to you. You see a black man and project your own imaginary ideas of malice on him. Nice going.

You can call him rude, but you can also call him correct. Personally, I find lying to the American people much more important that the reputation of the institution. By lying, Obama already had cheapened the institution - he didn't need Wilson's help on this.

OMG, I'm SO humiliated. You called me a racist! Guess I need to become a progressive now to save face.

Obama is so narcissistic that conservatives don't even care what color he is. We are too busy calling out his lies to notice.

Want to call me more names? Bring it.

The reason he shouldn't ignore Congress is because according to the Constitution, laws originate in Congress. He's not king.

I must say though, his SOTU hit so many of the pillars of Communism, that I was half-expecting Russia's national anthem to start playing in the background. When he used the word pillar - just too good...pass the popcorn

You are very shortsighted and from my perspective, a complete moron. Congress is an institution. It's bigger than any one person. Why is that hard for you to understand. I'm not here to say whether Obama lied, but we know that Bush did! Did anyone yell out KILLER? People died for these institutions. The foundation of our government is dependent upon our understanding that these places are sacred. It is a shame that you are so low class and uneducated, you don't understand this. Must be a trailer park Republican.

Wow, this is so weird - you attack me because Joe was right about what he said? I'm sorry that Obama lied to y'all about Obamacare, that they out-and-out stated that y'all needed to be lied to because you were too stupid to see that you needed this law to pass.

I would say that any 'intellectual' who calls their own voter base stupid, is not terribly intellectual after all. And certainly not a nice person to boot.

Malice, schmalice. That shit was FUNNY. You wouldn't know comedy if it was a banana cream pie hitting you square in the face.

Please cite why Wilson was correct. IIRC, he was insisting that illegal immigrants would be eligible for health insurance under the ACA.

In fact, Wilson was seeing the writing on the wall, that Obama planned a messive amnesty which would make current illegals eligible for health care.

Joe Wilson was *not* correct. Illegal aliens are *not* eligible for government-funded medical benefits under the ACA.
