***THE OFFICIAL STATE OF THE UNINFORMED SILLINESS THREAD***

In a surprise last minute announcement, the White House has revealed that President Obama will live tweet his own State of the Union address before Congress Tuesday night. Spokesman Josh Earnest confirmed that the president will have a smartphone with him at the podium in the House chamber so he can make real time comments on Twitter as he delivers his nationally televised speech.

“The President feels that providing a credible, instant reaction to his words via social media will mean increased message awareness with millennial and tech-savvy consumers,” said Earnest. “And who better to provide that reaction than the President himself.”

Using the hashtag #POTUSLive, the President will use pauses during applause in the speech to tweet clarifications of policy statements, comment on the facial expressions of audience members, and share selfies of himself with House Speaker John Boehner and Vice-President Joe Biden.

I wonder if I should ask the mods to make this the Live Thread?

Love the show, last season was okay, hope they pull it off for the final season. Plus “The Americans” returns next week on FX next week IIRC....

I plan on watching re-runs of “F Troop” Larry Storch is a lot more funny than bobama!

METV, huh? Yeah, got Hogan's Heroes on the same set I've been watching since I got it new during Reagan's first term. (1982 Zenith) BTW, Larry Storch is still alive and teaches acting IIRC.

I’d duct tape that bitch down, and put a cinder block on top of it.

Is it worth going back to the beginning to watch The Americans? I have seen 2 episodes and it was okay. I hated losing Dewey Crowe last night. Great character. Thank goodness Dickie Bennett and his weedwhacker hairdo is coming back.

For me “The Americans” was worth going back(waited until it got renewed and good reviews)...hope it is okay enough for you...and yes Dewey being offed was sad....Dickie will be nice to see again.
