After Obama's long and successful doom and gloom Presidential campaign, where he was nice enough to describe to everyone, the litany of what's wrong with America, how will he tackle his upcoming SOTU speech to congress?

How will he profess that the state of the union is strong?

Will he be able to keep a straight face?

And will those watching and listening believe him?

After watching the 30 minute Obama infomercial, which can only be described as 'soup-line America', I'm very interested as to how he's going to pivot so quickly, while still holding on to his credibility.

That's a good question, but he was in presidential campaign mode at the time. As POTUS, he may still need to lowball expectations, something he has already hinted at, if only to make for more favorable metrics. The honeymoon period and Bush blaming will only last so long.

Economics trumps Virtue.

Really? Wait till it's at least remotely close to the speech? Let him give his speech, then criticize what you will, because I'm sure you'll find something, taking something out of context to make it look bad probably.

It seems that many conservatives are unable to seperate criticism from hate. You can be critical of many areas in the US, and still love the country and believe it is strong.

Apply liberally to affected area.

Of course you can. They're certainly as critical of the country as anyone. But they were successful playing the "we're-patriotic-and-they're-not" card for many years and it is only now starting to go stale and fail. It will take them a while to find a new, perhaps more honourable strategy.

Actually, it's quite simple. If one doesn't want to be criticized as unpatriotic, don't act like it. They've earned their 'blame America first' status themselves, through hard, tough, wreckless anti-Americanism. You reap what you sow.

So the founders of the country were unpatriotic for wanting to form a more perfect union? I mean, they were actually saying the union wasn't inherently perfect and clearly blaming it for that.

So stop being anti-american and be patriotic and support your new President. I mean, that is what the anti-bushites were told to do.

Wow. Is it any wonder the GOP lost the election? Seriously, you need to get in touch with reality. Of the two major party campaigns, Obama ran the positive campaign, McCain the negative one. The voters put their trust in the more positive guy.

He's a black with a Muslim name. Any move to disagree with him or discredit him will be met with chants of "racists"!

Hussein Obama is your President for life,enjoy.

He maybe a tanned George Bush. Forget about the "black Muslim name" stuff..He's a front for white guys...as if the old white elite would hand over their power to a black Muslim - the guy for all intent and purpose is white. What made him a great orator was his abilty to take one good line out of a thousand speeches and spew off a bunch of emotional rhetoricals that made no sense at all but were elequent (moved by emotion) - Americans and Canadians are so easily seduced....Frankly there may be more blood in his ears than his head - what happens when the pressure is on an his little brain goes into over drive....will it expode at the same moment that Cheney's pace maker quits..? :P It does not look good - plus black or white - his wife is cross eyed - did no one notice..? Or where they to busy fawning over her skin tone?

The card to be played now is not Patriotism its racism. Get on board with Barak or your a racist. I Guess neither party is guilt free from panhandling.

Panhandling? Not only does your premise not have any relevance to reality (and the lack of any concrete examples is just the first clue to that), it's poorly spelled and it makes no sense.

Way to go. I'm glad to see the right is continuing their strategy of irrational debate well past the election. :lol:
