State of the Union Live Discussion

[Qwerty]

You can watch the State of the Union Address here:

www.whitehouse.gov/state-of-the-union-2012

I will temporarily be replacing this chat with a place where we can discuss the State of the Union address, live, as it happens.

After the speech, this thread can be used for free debate of anything specifically discussed in the speech.

The speech begins at 9 EST, and 6 PST.

A good speech, but I'm unsure of what to think, and in any case, I can only hope that the speech becomes more than just words...
