Girls at One Direction concerts are less enthralled than these Democratic members of Congress.

There's something unsettling about watching members of what should be the foremost branch of government fawning over the president. #SOTU

This guy can’t run a website, and he is going to personalize my medical care? #CatoSOTU

When & why is it federal govt's job to "help students learn to write computer code" and "personalize medical treatments for patients" ?#sotu

I love how a guy who tirelessly defends the big unions, regulations, and taxes that kill innovation talking about the future. #SOTU2016

"Cut the cost of college" before talking ISIS, hostages, sailors held by Iran?
— Hugh Hewitt (@hughhewitt) January 13, 2016
There's that "free college" nonsense again. Didn't that get debunked last time?
— Rachael Larimore (@RachaelBL) January 13, 2016
Talking #Obamacare now. Mention of premiums and deductibles skyrocketing?

Can we get to the part about how after 7 years, the only countries the US has improved relations with are Iran & Cuba? #change

Flattest SOTU he’s done. The applause is late, the laughs are forced. And he’s not changing minds. I expected something different.

I hate to break it to you, but we're not going to cure cancer by January 20, 2017.

Did POTUS just praise cheap gas in the middle of a lecture on dangers of climate change? #NotCoherent

Good lord. Choice is between isolationism or "nation-building everywhere there is a problem." Godzilla strawman, attack!

With all due respect Mr. President, the genocide against Christians in the Middle East is not simply the "Middle East in transition". #SOTU

Obama says about ISIS:"we must take them out"
— Greta Van Susteren (@greta) January 13, 2016
Am I wrong or wasn't the last time Obama said our enemies are weak about 12 hours before the Paris attack? Hmmmm #SOTU

President Obama realizes 10 American sailors are being held tonight in Iran, right? #SOTU

POTUS: “… I will keep working to shut down the prison at Guantanamo.” #SOTU
— Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly) January 13, 2016
I just heard “Guantanamo,” and what’s funny is that in 2008 he promised to close it very soon and who’s he waiting on?
— Mollie (@MZHemingway) January 13, 2016
No mention of San Bernardino. I'm just dismayed that everyone seems to have just forgotten about that terrorist attack.

Obama: "As we speak, Iran has rolled back its nuclear program."
Still radio silence on our detained sailors in Iran.#SOTU— Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) January 13, 2016
We have to change the system to reflect our better selves, which is why I feel free to violate the Constitution with impunity.

The President is very disappointed in us for not fulfilling the promises of his ‘08 speeches.

This is a short speech in the same sense that if you like your plan, you can keep it.#SOTU
— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) January 13, 2016
We will never have to listen to another one of those from this man again.
Cheers, America.#SOTU
