The State Of Our Union Is . . . Weird

After President Obama's State of the Union address, and Fox News' contributors descriptions of a "flat" and "defiant" speech that indicated the President has learned little in recent months, Republican rebutter Bob McDonnell is walking to a podium in a weird setting -- an assemblage of supporters who have transformed Virginia's state legislative chamber into a minor-league version of the United States Capitol -- so that Gov. McDonnell, a graduate of Pat Robertson's Regent University and confirmed representative of Lesser Jesusland, can spout Scripture by his very position at that podium demonstrate that the Republicans have learned even less.

UPDATE: Forgot to predict that Gov. McDonnell would assure Americans that Pres. Obama sides with the terrorists. Nailed the "spouting Scripture" part, though.

UPPERDATE: Not too shabby, particularly for a flat, defiant performance.
