A very positive State of the Union Address, but not full of major revelations or great new ideas, except perhaps on energy policy.
Like many around the nation I watched the President's State of the Union Address eager to hear something interesting, but was largely disappointed. Maybe I'm too familiar with what's going on in the country or his past speeches, but it seemed like the speech was pretty much a rehash of things I'd heard before - some of them very good points, but few of them striking or original.…

I figure they no longer tap my phone because they go too bored or they were driven insane by listening to my schizo pool guy who calls me 3 times a day to ramble on endlessly in a mumbling, self-medicated voice about impellers and bearings.
