The State of the Union Speech was a Propaganda Platform Defending Incompetence

Sub­mit­ted by George McClellan

One hard­ly knows how to gauge what we heard from Joe Biden in his State of the Union speech last night but a few notable points revealed them­selves. As expect­ed, the speech was an effort to favor­ably pro­pa­gan­dize his first two years of gov­ern­men­tal fail­ure, couched in will­ful and inten­tion­al false­hoods. He men­tioned 70,000 deaths by fen­tenyal poi­son­ing when the num­ber is actu­al­ly near­er 170,000. That’s Joe’s respon­si­bil­i­ty exclu­sive­ly but, why tell the truth when you can fool some of the peo­ple all the time? He claimed some­thing about pro­tect­ing the sov­er­eign­ty of the US but all but ignored the Chi­nese spy bal­loon incur­sion. Joe can’t help him­self. He has been a pro­fes­sion­al politi­cian for so long that what fills his purse mon­e­tar­i­ly trumps any Amer­i­can val­ues he swore an oath to pro­tect. By all appear­ances Joe and his fam­i­ly have become Tro­jan hors­es for the Chi­nese Com­mu­nist Party.

The lack of respect shown to Joe as Pres­i­dent of the Unit­ed States rose to a new lev­el with out right laugh­ter and deri­sion after shame­less­ly lying about the need for oil for anoth­er decade, not to men­tion claim­ing the Repub­li­cans want­ed to destroy Social Secu­ri­ty and Medicare, a claim that drew an imme­di­ate response from Con­gressper­son, Mar­jorie Tay­lor Green who shout­ed out “Liar.” That rubric was bro­ken years ago when Oba­ma, deliv­er­ing his speech, met the same response for one of his lies. That shocked the Wash­ing­ton polit­i­cal world then but the shock has worn off and when sec­tions of Con­gressper­sons rise up as one in laugh­ter, then the respect one should expect for a Pres­i­dent of the Unit­ed States was swept away forever.

As to the visu­als, Biden exceed­ed him­self by stay­ing on script as well as he could for an elder­ly man, while the Democ­rats cheered shame­less­ly, but the pres­ence of Kamala Har­ris on the dais behind him was a reminder that the GOP must do what­ev­er it can to keep Joe alive two more years. There is no alter­na­tive. Speak­er McCarthy, sit­ting in the seat so long occu­pied by Nan­cy Pelosi, and hav­ing the good sense of not tear­ing Biden’s speech into pieces, was a visu­al con­fir­ma­tion that Pelosi’s era has past, a sig­nif­i­cant point con­firmed by Arkansas Gov­er­nor Sarah Huck­abee Sanders who deliv­ered the offi­cial GOP response when she said that it was time for new, young lead­er­ship. She could have been talk­ing about McCarthy as well but the impact of her com­ments has, I believe, pro­pelled her to a new lev­el of polit­i­cal respect as a poten­tial pres­i­den­tial can­di­date some­where down the road. She has a few years as Arkansas’s gov­er­nor to show her met­tle but I sus­pect we’re see­ing anoth­er Ron DeSan­tis type of gov­er­nor­ship devel­op­ing. Stay tuned!  All in all, Biden’s hour and a half before the pub­lic was a waste of our time, an exer­cise in Demo­c­rat pro­pa­gan­da to allay the obvi­ous, that America’s rud­der­less ship of state was head­ed for the rocks and shoals of immi­nent dis­as­ter. When all around you is in dis­ar­ray, when Chi­nese spy bal­loons can freely over­fly our land chal­leng­ing our sov­er­eign­ty, how can it be expect­ed that our gov­ern­ment is even con­cerned about pro­tect­ing us from for­eign ene­mies and that an annu­al speech by a doter­ing Pres­i­dent can bring Amer­i­cans togeth­er, to do…what? Join hands singing Cum-by-yah to hap­pi­ly accept the poi­son of per­ver­sion, equi­ty, inclu­sion and diversion?

Biden bragged his poli­cies has put more blacks into judge­ships, lead­er­ship rolls and exec­u­tive posi­tions than any oth­er pres­i­dent. He has!  But, his poli­cies of equi­ty and inclu­sion include fill­ing pilot seats of com­mer­cial air­lines with diver­si­ty over com­pe­tence, the same with Judi­cial nom­i­na­tions of black females for fed­er­al judge­ships who can­not even expound on the mean­ings of arti­cles in the US Con­sti­tu­tion. Does that sug­gest a bright future for Amer­i­ca or por­tend a fur­ther step toward law­less­ness that appears to be in Amer­i­c­as future. Biden’s poli­cies have been divi­sive. The Repub­li­cans have been pre­sent­ed with an oppor­tu­ni­ty here to sweep Marx­ism away, restore peace and tran­quil­i­ty to our cities and streets, return Amer­i­ca to an eco­nom­i­cal­ly pros­per­ous coun­try of near full employ­ment, includ­ing for minori­ties, and strength­en our mil­i­tary to defend from our exter­nal ene­mies. But, don’t bet on it. The deep state is deep­er than we can pos­si­bly imag­ine and a weak pres­i­dent is next to useless.

Remem­ber, free­dom is the goal, the Con­sti­tu­tion is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (08Feb23)
