So, of the 3 "rebuttals" I've now watched, they pretty much all started "Hey, so the President just talked, but I'm not going to discuss what he said, I'm going to read these prepared remarks that may or may not agree or disagree with the things the President said... Basically, it's my turn to talk about what I want to talk about!"

Christ, Homer Simpson presented a more coherent rebuttal.

That's hilarious, it wasn't private when I watched it... I guess the super terrible minute or so where he had a lady adjust his tie and fix his makeup, and then he fistpumped and mouthed the first bit of his speech was too embarrassing to leave up...

This is like watching a street busker take the stage after Bruce Springsteen.

As Original Oratory's go, I'm gonna have to give her a Rank 7 and 10 Speaker Points. Well below the break line, Joni. No trophy for you.

1) if that isn't a god damn wig then I don't know what is!

2) "Keystone"? Are you fukking kidding me? You should've talked about pig Caesarians, that would've been more entertaining/revelant

3) WTF, I ran out of Smirnoff!!!1!!!

4) I feel robbed without the maniacal Joker laugh

5) No mention of "Castration"

6) since "bread bags" are so tough can I use them as condoms? Not for me, but for a friend that is asking...and extremely cheap

7) Is orange <strong>REALLY</strong> the new black?!?!

8) Considering the amount of "pork" Mitch McConell likes to take home to Kentucky, he may want to cross his legs anytime Joni Ernst walks by. Just saiyin!
