Kwity Paye receives honorary invite to the SOTU

POTUS address to a JSOC as mandated by A2 S3 C1 of the USC

I know what SOTU is and my maize and blue glasses still thought it was a reference to OSU.

Me too, and it was well worth the time to read the link.  

FUBAR… truly a timeless acronym, and one that isn’t used often enough.  An all time favorite.

Helmet, shoulder pads, and shorts. He doesn't drink skim milk. 

How about his old jersey?

Please just not the horrible tennis shoe/ Nikes with a suit fad, though. 

Re: Winged Helmets at Delaware

Thanks to former Michigan football player David M. Nelson who'd played for Fritz Crisler after Crisler moved from being Princeton's head coach to become Michigan's head coach, Delaware uses the winged-helmet design that Nelson brought from Michigan to Delaware when he became the head coach there. 

Many years ago as a student at a VA a physician told me he was referring someone who was “a real FUBAR”.

Had no idea WTF he was talking about but my clinical supervisor educated me.

Did you also get an advance copy of the always-awkward opposition rebuttal? 

Instead of a SOTU, I wish we'd just switch to a two hour version of Prime Minister's Questions. Now that would be awesome.

Because Article II, Section 3 of the United States Constitution says that the President shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient, just once, I'd love to hear a State of the Union speech be as short and as sweet as the first one that President Washington gave in 1790 (only 1,089 words) or this one from President Lincoln that wasn't technically a State of the Union address, but said a lot about the state of the nation at that time:

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate – we can not consecrate – we can not hallow – this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Then, I'd like to hear the President say: I'm sending a statement to Congress about the measures I consider to be necessary and expedient. It's being posted online now at the White House website. Good night. May everyone in the nation and those in our military and diplomatic services who may be deployed around the world enjoy good health, peace, safety and prosperity.

Is that a beardless Ryan Day?

I think yours is the only political comment? Haha 

Be careful of demonizing the people you don’t know and someone else told you to despise
