1. It must be hard listening to the same old propaganda.

2. Sometimes old people take little snoozes. My mother did. n/t

[Felinity]

4. Was she running for president?

Was she attending one of the major annual events of the Nation formerly known as the the most powerful in the world?

Thanks for lumping McCain in with the "old folk" though. No need to put another Reagan in the WH.

[Felinity]

3. Amazing.

I'll Rec this just to see what others think of this.

???HuH?

Not the future President. This is a dream-killer snooze. You snooze, you LOSE.

[Hailtothechimp]

5. Well said

Tired, old McCain. Literally and figuratively.

It works for me.

[acmavm]

6. And this pathetic old coot thinks he presidential material.

What a joke.

[LynneSin]

7. Did you see that evil glare Nancy had at the end of the clip

She may be polite and clap but our gal knows better than to trust him!

[Pool Hall Ace]

8. Is the guy sitting in front of McCain snoozing, too?

Maybe they're looking down at their Sudoku puzzles instead of listening to blivet. That's what I'd be tempted to do.

[Robb]

9. He's not napping, he's texting

Yo dOOd! im at da SOTU n sht!! wOOt!

[Jane Austin]

10. Looks like he's using his Blackberry or Treo.

I saw other people doing that - maybe Ted Kennedy, too.

[Morgana LaFey]

13. You may be right

At the very least, it's not definitive enough he's not doing that and sleeping instead to end his Presidential aspirations, IMO. (More's the pity.)

I think someone napping wouldn't be moving quite so much.

[Ian David]

11. He was pining for the fjords. n/t

[petgoat]

12. When Bush left the podium and started up the aisle, a woman in

the front row turned away and wouldn't shake his hand.

Does anybody know who that was?

[LuckyLib]

16. Well, it certainly wasn't our new Repug Rep Right-Wing Fundie Michelle Bachmann.

She must have camped out early to get her aisle-side seat and fell on Bush both when he entered and left the chambers. With a grin a mile wide for all the cameras to see. Yuk!

[waiting for hope]

14. Awesome...

I was hoping someone would post this - it was swweet seeing it a second time. Let's imagine McCain in the WH, shall we?:boring: If that's not enough to keep him out of the race.....

And let's not forget -

[gemlake]

20. I love that picture!

Everytime I see it, I think--please, please let McCain be the nominee. He would be toast in a general election.

[eShirl]

15. he's not sleeping, he's making notes or playing sudoku or something

[LaBanty]

17. Isn't Ted Kennedy

Also a consummate napper? Between Kennedy and McCain, it's hard to tell which one still has a pulse sometimes.

[gemlake]

19. You might want to check out Ted's speech

on minimum wage. He's doing fine.

McSaint on the other hand, is losing it.

[suston96]

18. Could be.....

...that he and the guy in front him were following the speech looking down at their advance copies. I would like to see a longer clip and maybe catch him/them with a few head jerks.
