Fox & Friends Segment Replaces SOTU Audience Laughter And Applause With Cricket Sound Effects

Making jokes is unpresidential, unless they're hilarious ones about how he can't find weapons of mass destruction after insisting they were there and getting thousands of soldiers killed.

fascinating..wow.

and Macaco, we watch Fox news for these badly edited clips

[crickets]

And people watch "Faux & Friends" to SEE jokes. Three of them, sitting on a couch....

I thought it was decent as far as SOTU speeches go. They are always high on rhetoric and short on detail. I didn't care for the seating thing, found it really affected the President's speaking style and I think without the applause, it made for a bit of a flat delivery. Obama, like most speakers, feeds off his audience and his audience was pretty boring.

I did, however, watch the FOX coverage of the speech. I watched the reaction of the "random" people that they pulled in to watch and analyze the speech. Frank Luntz, Mr. "no-bias" reporting. Anyone else catch that? That was pretty funny. I swear they gave nasty pills out to 95% of those folks. Mean defined.

President Obama and the Democrats DID stake their political future to move this country forward, fix 8 years of BS, and prevent another global economic cataclysm that would have made the Great Depression seem like a birthday party... and they paid for it in Nov. because the opposing side lied, cheated, and lied some more.

Did you actually watch the speech are you simply going by the fabricated clip you just saw?

Oh my gawd. Now that's funny! You think the Fox coverage was real! You're the guy! The one that clip was edited for! Awesome lack of self-awareness. Really. Bravo.

"You put Republicans, conservative and Tea-Nuts in one room with the President and Obama would be the ONLY adult in the room."

Ha Ha Haaaa! Great joke mano. Better then Obama's bombs last night.

Oh-oh .... it looks like onementalmidget's parent's left the computer on again. And he forgot to take his meds....

Did you mean "better THAN"? Maybe you shouldn't be laughing so much at the attempts to improve education.

Fox News hates America as long as Democrats enjoy power. Most of all Fox News hates America as long as a black man sits in the Oval Office.
There is no way in Hell Fox News can be "fair and balanced" under these circumstances.
Despite the slogan, Fox News doesn't try to hide their bias.

We want folks who possess some decent thinking skills and judge people by the content of their character

Well, maybe if you're good, and you keep writing those letters to Santa, you'll eventually get some people like that. Hope springs eternal.

I'm white and I'm not a fan of "white folks" either. The whole genocide-against-this-country's-original-inhabitants thing aside, have you heard some of our music?

to onementalgiant.
Thanks for the "great post" complement.
Somehow you believe I "exhibit a bit of racism against white folks". What give you that impression? Is it because I used the term "white folks"?. Would you feel better if I said white people instead?
"Racism" would suggest I have power to control a group of people. I do not.
"Racism" also would suggest I hate a group of people due to their skin color. I do not because it is silly to hate someone for something they can't control. I'm black and some people hate me because of it. That is stupid. I have better sense than that.
So you are wrong on both counts.
Just so you know, I stick by the fact that Fox News is "childish, immature" when it comes to this President.
It is true that Obama has a sense of humor and he displayed some of it during his speech, but the overall speech was serious and informative. Can you deny that? Who doesn't throw in a joke or two during a speech?
It doesn't matter what this President does Fox News will criticize, attack, undermine and mock him, and they have been consistent. This IS childish, especially if you claim to be "News".
You are as twisted as those I point out.
You say I am a "good Obama follower". What if I told you I am a bad Obama follower. Would that make any different? The fact is I still appreciate intelligent speeches and speakers.
When I say it was a good speech, I am speaking for myself. If you said it was a bad speech, would you be speaking for every moron in America? No, you would be speaking for yourself. Just so you know, I don't have to be a Democrat to appreciate a good speech (or speaker). It makes no difference to me.
I will always be on the side of good and righterousness. This could exclude me from both Parties, but I can tell you this: Today's Republicans are the epitome and personification of evil and destruction (self). They are on the wrong side of every issue that is good for the American people (other than the rich).
If that is the side you want to be on than we need to question your intelligence, or should I say, lack of.

Hm. Lessee, how does that go? Who should he believe -- Fox noise, or his lying eyes? Cuz I saw the speech when it aired, and I'm pretty darn sure there was applause and laughter at both of those jokes, and I'm pretty darn sure that Biden and Boehner were not sitting there like cigar store mannequins through the whole thing. It sorta looks like they greenscreened it...

"Then, as all good Obama followers (lemmings) always do, sez BHO gave a great speech because mano saw it for himself." --one mentalmidget

" . . . because mano saw it for himself" -- as opposed to, what? Listening to a Rush Limpballs/FOX "edited" version?

"We want folks who possess some decent thinking skills and judge people by the content of their character"

Well, that certainly explains why the Republicans keep such mental giants as Palin and Brewer around. Well played.

have you ever thought that instead of man of mystique being an Obama lemming, you're a fox news lemming? most of us have watched the SOTU when it was live and i'm sure even republicans and tea party members won't say something as ignorant as Obama's jokes falling flat. At least be an informed republican/tea party member before spreading dumb propaganda all over the comments. Why don't you watch the speech from an unbiased source and judge for yourself before swallowing all the crap fox news feeds you?

Oops. It just occurred to me that maybe mcnairbo was being sarcastic, in which case I apologize for the verbal smite. My bad. However, I stand by my comment as a general question the true Foxbots.
