More SOTU

Great catch by Jessica:

From last night's State of the Union address:

"In all we do, we must remember that the best health care decisions are made not by government and insurance companies, but by patients and their doctors."

Unless, of course, you have a vagina.
And a keen observation from Mustang Bobby:

[I]t was interesting to note what wasn't in the president's State of the Union address last night.

- Where was the call for the ban on gay marriage?

- Where was the call for the flag-burning amendment?

- Where was the ususal right-wing dog-whistle about the "culture of life" and the call to ban abortion?

I'm sure James Dobson and the Talibangelistas were wondering that, too.
My, how quickly things change.

Freshman Congresswoman Michele Bachmann makes a move on the president. (Via Atrios.)

And John McCain offers the smartest commentary I've seen him deliver in years.



Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Here's Webb's response, in case you haven't seen it yet.
