State Of The Union: The Words Obama SHOULD Have Mentioned That He Doesn’t

In tonight’s State Of The Union address, President Obama speaks 7877 words, but does not mention the following ones. He should have. I’m disappointed he did not.

marriage

civil rights

equality

lesbian

climate change

global warming

sexual orientation

ENDA

DOMA

guns

gun control

DREAM Act

bullying

suicides

He does say “gay” once, “black” (in reference to people) once, “Democrat,” “Republican” and “education” ten times, each, equally. Family five times. Families twice. Tucson three times, Afghanistan once, Iraq four times. Russia twice. Health care four times (only four?!?!?) Repeal once.

What do you wish he had said? Was it a good speech? Were you surprised, or not surprised?
