I may approve of the idea if the USA National Debt was only $4 Trillion.

Remember Ross Perot ?
In 1992 it was only $4 Trillion.

Now it is around $16.5 Trillion.
Our GDP is $16 Trillion.

Don't blame Obama. The coal power plants are being replaced with Gas Turbine Power
Plants because they operate at a higher profit margin.
Let the shareholders decide.
Natural gas is being found everywhere and it is very cheap!

You're correct in a sense...Natural gas is cheap...right now. Fracking is about to become heavily regulated and drive the cost up. I have a few family members that work on setting up the pumping stations and they have been told it is coming.

Obama has a boner for coal. It is one of our cheapest and most abundant resources and he (an others) are regulating it to extinction. I'm sorry, I am not ready to go all gas or all nuke power and until the so called "green and clean" energies (which create their own industrial waste problems) are cheap and efficient...I want to see coal left on the table and not killed. "ya gotta dance with who brung ya" and coal is a huge reason we were successful to this point. I am not saying it should never go the way of the dodo...but...I don't think it's right to create higher energy costs just because it's politically correct to do so...now IS NOT the time to jack up people's home operation costs.

Just my opinion and kinda off topic...sorry.

The "State of the Union Address" is going to be another dog an pony show (elephant and donkey show?). They will tell the herds what they want to hear..."All is going well, it's still hard out there but it's getting better"...and 65% of the idjets watching will be like this..

Expect Anonymous....or so RT is claiming...Source
Eyes and ears will be on US President Barack Obama Tuesday evening as he presents the State of the Union address from Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. Hacktivists aligned with the Anonymous movement have other plans, however.
A call to arms has been issued by Anonymous, the shadowy underground collective of hackers and activists, and the group says they hope to disrupt select online broadcasts of the annual address in protest of President Obama and his administration’s assaults on the civil liberties and constitutional rights of Americans, as well as the world’s Internet.
“Operation SOTU,” or “OpSOTU,” is latest mission from Anonymous, and members involved in the initiative say it will serve as a decisive factor in the “battle royale for the future of the Internet.”
In a statement drafted by members of Anonymous and circulated on the Web early Tuesday, the group recalls a series of recent victories for Internet activists who waged battles and won against proposed legislation that would have drastically changed the modern landscape of computer and technology law.
“Last year we faced our greatest threat from lawmakers. We faced down SOPA, PIPA, CISPA and ACTA,” the message begins. “But that victory did not come easily. Nor did it come without a price.”

Marco Rubio gets an A+ for his speech.

The delivery of the speech gets a B+.
He was a little nervous. Where is that water bottle?
