Senator Thune after the speech stated a Republican president has to reverse everything this administration did. He stated the Senate would not pass a AUMF. He stated the President can do everything he should with the power he has. Everyone, even Thune knows that is a lie. But, it is the reason OCO funds are exceptionally high. He stated 67 votes are needed to change the rules of the Senate that would allow individual appropriation bills to pass. He though Governor Haley acknowledged a lot of anger out there. We need to do what she states as a party and strike a tone we want for the future of the party, up lifting people using liberty than expanding government.

There was a citizen stating she thought President Obama and Governor Haley said the same thing when it came to uniting the country. 

Charles Krauthammer stated President Obama was completely disconnected from reality. That was the only message Krauthammer had in many different phrases and words.  - he is pretending to recognize the dangers of Islam while bring violence inside the borders of the USA - territoriality Islam is the largest threat we have ever had - George W. Bush made the same appeal to accept Muslims in the USA and it was not contested because he called the terrorists what they were - Radical Islamic Terrorists and went after - Radical Islamic Terrorists - the American foreign policy is completely disconnected from reality - Obama is talking about a world that does not exist - he didn't listen to his advisers - the element of that speech showed how disconnected he was - he is being treated with contempt by Iran - illegal missile tests which we have responded with nothing - our journalist was never addressed - Iran is unrestrained and unmolested
dollars
Megan Kelly - we are about to give these people 150 million

Citizen - President Obama makes me angry when he talks about closing Gitmo when the released terrorists simply go back to doing the same thing as before.

A panel of citizens believe Congress is more responsible for dysfunction of government by a large margin. A citizen stated, President Obama only has himself to speak about everything, while the Congress has many members to cause dysfunction without looking as though it is only one person involved. A that time Mr. Lutz leading the group wanted to change the dialogue by stating, so you are all attacking the "institution," but, no one took the hook. 

A citizen state he was angry because Congress has absolutely not one fully formed plan to replace Obamacare, yet they have and keep voting for repeal of the bill. I think president Obama made a good speech  and Governor haley followed up the same way.

Senator Rubio - Obama set up a straw man in ISIS. It is not a JV team but a sophisticated group that used our immigration system to get into the USA. It is the best funded and organized terrorist group in the world  today. ISIS is not conducting WWIII, but, it is a significant conflict. It is turning our own citizens that can attack within the country. ISIS needs to be met with the seriousness it deserves. ISIS is  not a nation state but are acting as a nation state. 

Rubio - This President has been the single most divisive figure in history. Seven years of saying Republicans don't care about blah blah blah... He has bitterly divided this country and have done it for political gain. I feel very positive about Iowa and NH. Our support is growing. Iowa and NH will reveal good vote counts for us. 

Megan Kelly wanted to know from Senator Rubio how Senator Haley made the State of Union address reply without sipping water. Senator Rubio stated she did great speech tonight and we were all joking about the sip of water. I don't know what I am doing with water during the campaign. I don't focus on it. She did a great job and was the perfect person to give the response. I am proud of her. I don't know how anyone gets away with saying Republicans are not diverse, we have two Hispanics running for President and a woman and African American and we don't have the FBI chasing us.

I found a list of those invited to the State of the Union Speech so I don't understand Megan Kelly's statement that President Obama invited C.A.R.E. to the speech because they are being prosecuted for being involved with terrorism. Megan Kelly stated that didn't come from her. It came from the DOJ.

Hartfort, Conn. (AP) — A doctor whose mosque (click here) was shot up shortly after the Paris terrorist attacks and a man who spent 18 years in prison for a rape he did not commit are among the guests of Connecticut’s congressional delegation for President Barack Obama’s final State of the Union address on Tuesday.

Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy also is scheduled to attend the address, having been invited by the Obamas to sit near the first lady.
Here is a look at the State of the Union invitees of the state’s all-Democrat congressional delegation:

— Dr. Mohammed Qureshi, of Marlborough, president of the Connecticut chapter of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, a guest of Rep. Joe Courtney. The mosque his family attends, Baitul Aman in Meriden, was shot up hours after the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris that killed 130 people. The mosque was vacant at the time, and no one was hurt. A neighbor of the mosque is charged with a federal hate crime.

After the mosque shooting, Qureshi advocated for education and understanding in response to anti-Islamic sentiment.

— James Tillman, of Glastonbury, who served 18 years in prison for a rape he didn’t commit before being exonerated and freed in 2006 based on new DNA tests. Tillman was invited by Rep. John Larson. After being freed, Tillman was awarded $5 million by the state for his wrongful conviction, and last year he graduated from Goodwin College with an associate degree in human services.
Larson calls Tillman an inspiration and mentor to community members.
— Mark Barden, of Newtown, whose son Daniel was killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012. He is a guest of Sen. Chris Murphy. Murphy praised Barden for his efforts to prevent gun violence as a co-founder and managing director of the community group Sandy Hook Promise.

— Michael Zacchea, of Brookfield, a retired lieutenant colonel in the Marines, a guest of Sen. Richard Blumenthal. Zacchea was wounded in combat in Fallujah, Iraq, in 2004 and received two Bronze Stars and a Purple Heart for his service.

— New Britain Police Chief James Wardwell, invited by Rep. Elizabeth Esty. Esty cited Wardwell’s work to address opioid addiction and prevent gun violence.

— Don Carlson, an attorney who lives in Greenwich and was invited by Rep. Jim Himes. A spokesman for Himes said Carlson and the congressman are longtime friends who met while attending Harvard University.

— Marcia LaFemina, president of the Pennsylvania Globe Gaslight Co., a small manufacturing company based in North Branford. LaFemina was invited by Rep. Rosa DeLauro, who cited LaFemina for paying 100 percent of employees’ health care premiums and providing paid sick leave.

Kelly's opening sentence to her program was (shouting to camera) Obama favors Muslims and there was no mention of our sailors. Iran was mentioned in that Iran rolled back it's nuclear program but there was no mention of ten soldiers.

It seems to me there is only one President Obama, but, many soldiers at FOX that have license to say and do as they want. It would seem as though FOX has many hate mongers so no one person can be blamed for everything evil said about the President. 

Kelly was talking with Cruz. - Senator Cruz states it is not surprising Obama called it an avoided war, he is in the state of denial. Senator Cruz hopes soldiers not held as hostages tonight, his thoughts are with the families tonight. It shows how out of touch Obama is with this country. Tonight every lobbist is feeling better tonight (TPP) - Hedge Fund managers are happier tonight. Senator Cruz states he hear from blue collar workers and students. Studnets are up to their ears with debt and Obama is not hearing their cries. - I will apologize to no one for my willingness to kill terrorists (carpet bomber). Obama did not say a word about San Bernardino - Philadelphia.  Obama or Hillary does not speak the name of ISIS as Radical Islamist Terrorists. - There was a mention about Donald Trump saying Cruz is making calls all day long. I have no idea what calls are made to whom. I have been with voters all day. - Kelly wanted to know about Cruz appearance on Harvey Carr Radio saying Donald Trump is a New York Values Person. Cruz denied it and stated every Republican candidate in the field was attacking Trump in the past few weeks, but, tonight every candidate was attacking him and Cruz believes that is saying something. Trump stated I was a leftist at Harvard. Cruz stated, "I am winning over Hillary Clinton."

No matter what any Republican has to say about Donald Trump everyone of them are keeping their fingers crossed that he brings New York to them. 

Republican citizens at the Lutz group states - President Obama fell short of my hopes. He is dangerous. I am fearing my own country and my own life. His agenda was always to be divisive. His agenda does not reflect by beliefs and values. I do however agree with raising the minimum wage, but, equal pay for equal work is all artificial. I don't believe it exists.

Marc Thiessen was one of three panelists with Megan Kelly. - President stated plenty that was divisive. He said, poor people on food stamps did not cause the economic problems of 2008. Then he stated the stimulus 2009 stimulus had right wing programs like the tax cuts but we were never given credit for it.

"I am glad I am not in Washington, the sulfur is terrible. Everyone laughed and then were all mimics, "Washington is going to be sulfurous." 

He also downed the fact big government is the issue while he has a health care agenda and prescription drug abuse. There was a veiled reference to Donald Trump in the speech that we lean on the greatness of government for winning elections.

Megan Kelly met with Debbie Wasserman Schultz and our Democratic Chair was not very nice. She didn't think Governor Haley was appropriate for the speech. Debbie stated the Governor has a problem in her state, not popular and she was chosen to give the speech. I don't believe she was the best choice. What I did tonight was asked by colleagues to join me.

Rep. Schultz makes it her business to deprive Republicans of their messaging. She was successful, however, she missed an opportunity to bring the two parties closer in the way appreciative citizens did. 

The reason US Rep. Schultz is taking on the Republican messaging is because the GOP is trying in every way to mimic Democratic values as stated by the former Secretary as their own. The Republicans are trying everything. It is an all out assault on Hillary Clinton's character - each member of the FOX commentators have their own agenda - they are mimicking Dems values - the Republican candidates are mimicking FOX - FOX is stating anything they can INTERPRET from the emails to ESTIMATE what the FBI is looking into to charge Hillary Clinton. Basically, they are building a reputation better than Hillary's character could ever be. They are trying to attract her voters and if they are doing that they must have some interesting statistics for the November elections. FOX and the Republicans are scared. The Republicans are far, far to right and they might have figured it out and have no place to go with their standard message so they are taking Hillary's as their own while weaving it into their own poison.
