I sure hope Cindy’s there tonight to help make things lively<\/a>! Ah, memories. Otherwise, here’s your annual SOTU open thread. We’ll be watching along with you…<\/p>\n

Prepared text of speech now here…<\/a><\/p>\n

UPDATE 1\/28\/10, 1:10pm PT:<\/b><\/i> “Mandation Nation”<\/b>. Just flagging, for posterity, the three most noteworthy sideshow moments, as I had noted eacj in comments last night as they happened, since we now have the video of each, courtesy of Shannyn Moore’s compilation<\/a> (and AKMuckraker’s “Mandation Nation”<\/a>). Palin on Obama’s “mandation<\/i> for health care”; Matthews’ racial forgetfullness; and Republican Justice Alito as the new Joe Wilson. All three videos now follow below…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Glenn Greenwald, a former Constitutional law and civil rights litigator, explains<\/a> why Alito’s remarkable violation of protocol, as seen in the clip below as he mouthed “that’s not true” in response to Obama’s criticism of the SCOTUS’ recent activist legislation from the bench<\/a> to allow unlimited corporate funds in American elections…<\/p>\n

Chris Matthews thought Obama did so well last night, he completely forgot he was a black guy!…<\/p>\n

Shannyn Moore describes the following post-SOTU interview with Hannity as “Palin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s word salad response to the President\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s speech,” and notes she “thinks she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s upset that [Obama] said he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not a quitter\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6”. Palin’s “mandation” comment is just after the 5 min mark, and AKMuckraker helps us out by noting<\/a>: “What\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ‘mandation’ you ask? According to Dictionary.com it means ‘No dictionary results.’<\/a> Strange.”…<\/p>\n
