Bland centrist Ron Fournier, who seems to aspire to be David Broder without all the edginess, has graced us with some standards for judging Barack Obama's State of the Union address tonight. Needless to say, he thinks the Republican takeover of the Senate presents America with a beautiful opportunity for Democrats and Republicans to "begin governing together" like good boys and girls -- if only Obama doesn't poison everything by trying to enact his agenda. Fournier tut-tuts:
...what is the over/under on the number of Republicans that stand with their backs to Obama, while he give the State of the Union?!
...nah, more like: &quot;close your eyes; do you see <strong>BLACK</strong>?&quot;
The look on Boehner&#039;s face: Double scotch
Obama: SOTU Fournier: STFU
How dare the President act like he&#039;s the President?
He needs to be more Jeffersonian, George Jeffersonian.
Professor or Preacher? I&#039;ll take Warren over Huck any day.
Ron Fournier: a head as thick as his skin is thin.
Too sober.
As ever, &quot;they only call it class warfare when we fight back.&quot;
Will the contempt for this great and good journalist never end? How DARE they: <a href="http://www.balloon-juice.co..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.balloon-juice.com/2015/01/20/the-perfe...">http://www.balloon-juice.co...
