State of the Curmudgeon Union

Last night, I had the choice of watching the State of the Union Address or a Lewis Black comedy special.

Curmudgeons being what we are, Lewis Black won out hands down. Political theater has many amusing moments and the State of the Union Address can be wonderfully entertaining, watching grown men jump up at odd moments to cheer and applaud, Supreme Court members doze off or Bobby Jindal speak.

Lewis Black has the advantage of being more pointed, more consistently informative, and funny to boot.

Much better way to spend one's time.
