Tweets / Observations / Snark from watching Obama’s 5th small ball State of the Union

You know, it’s been while since being on Twitter – good tool for times like this.  And a good workout for the fingers (which are pooped!).  A couple I need to follow up on for fun and adventure:  #GROK #SOTU #NHPOLITICS

• Yes, I am ready to rumbleeeeeee!

• 3 million sign up for Obamacare – no mention of the 5 million who lost it because of Obamacare

• Is obama going to pull a Boenher and start crying?
• And we are done…..

RT @Warnerthuston #SOTU well, there is 1 hour and 5 minutes I’ll never get back. Could have just listened to the past speeches and gotten the same.
