I missed it. He must have mentioned it when I ran to the bathroom for a minute.
You know, the State of the Union… the part where he talked about cutting all those wasteful drug war programs to reduce the deficit?
Damn, I really wanted to hear that part. Did he mention my name? After I made the suggestion, I halfway thought that I might be invited to sit in the balcony next to Jenna or something, so I could be pointed out for making such a sensible suggestion to eliminate expensive, counterproductive, and wasteful government programs. But I understand that the seating there is limited.
Hope they replay it. Did he get a standing ovation for that part?
