STOP CLAPPING DURING THE STATE OF THE UNION!
STOP interrupting it because it only makes it longer. How can we stop the applause?

3. it wouldn't be so bad
if it wasn't for the things they clapped about

"It's time to end partisan politics!" APPLAUSE (translation, Democrats need to roll over even more for our extreme agenda)
"We need to reform taxes!" APPLAUSE (translation, rich people need more tax cuts)
"We need to solve the social security crisis" APPLAUSE (translation, I need to scare people enough to funnel alot more money to stock brokers and ruthlessly slash SS payments for Generation X)

etx., etc., etc.

4. Yes, but even if it was actually applaudable (?) substance
they should just wait. It's so rude to cut it up and then it just goes on forever.
