President Barack Obama's State of the Union address drew the second-lowest television viewership in 15 years.

According to Nielsen data, 31.7 million viewers watched Tuesday night's prime-time address on broadcast and cable networks. That's the lowest television viewership for a State of the Union address since President Bill Clinton's final speech.

I rarely have a chance to listen to Rush Limbaugh - so I turn him on and he says “I didn’t watch the SOTU speech last night.”

Loved it!! I refused to watch too - retards applauding retards was just too much for me.

I did something FAR more interesting - washed and folded laundry.

I get very offended when somebody stands there looking me in the eyes and lies to me.

I wish he would look us in the eye. Instead he's always watching that tennis match on his teleprompter.

Even Justice Ginsberg missed it.

I watched less than a minute, before shutting off the TV. Soon as Obama appeared, he reminded me of a turd and the need to take a crap. Which I got rid of. Two more years for us to be rid of the turd in the White House.
