Anyone plan on attending or hosting a SOTU house party?

The DNC blog has a section for that, if anyone is interested. Even if you don't want to watch the State of the Union Speech, you could have friends over to watchmovies like Enemy of the State, Fahrenheit 911, Unprescedented, etc. and chat about plans for the midterm elections, local protests of the NSA thing or a host of other topics.

1. I Plan to go to Washington and blow and airhorn

I intend to keep blowing it until he quits talking. If I'm there with others that will be good. If I'm there alone that won't be quite as good.

2. Sounds like a mobile SOTU party!

You oughta post here about it and see if others near DC will join you.
Get some people with Tshirts and buttons and bumperstickers to come be vendors, and have a party.

Washington DC: In DC, we will gather as close as we can to the scene of the impending lies:

We will be on the west side of the Capitol, around and in front of the reflecting pool. The Press will be parked along 3rd Street and along the South Side of the Capitol (Independence). Cindy Sheehan and Ann Wright will speak to us (and them) at 8 pm; they will be followed by other speakers (the Rev. Yearwood and Doug Nelson, an Vietnam War vet) and then at 9, the main event will begin:

Picture a marching band/brass ensemble, a drum circle, a choir, tap dancers, a rock ensemble, hip-hop poetry, other spoken word, hootenany, African, Asian, Irish glorious soaring rhythmic, each beginning and doing a few minutes in sequence, followed by overlapping moments, followed by at least 30 minutes of jazz-like improv, call and response, followed by one fully stunning long-held harmonious wall of sound that rises to the heavens.

The whole main event lasts 50 minutes, from 9-9:50. It’s possible the media might be roused from their hypnotic stance to report on it.

If you are interested in either helping with logistics or performing, or can help us get great performers, please email Karen Bradley at [e-mail] or call 202-669-3927.

4. I'm going to hold an open casket wake.

And then when the speech is over and all the dumb, pig-headed bobble heads start applauding and grinning through their shark teeth, I'm going to throw myself into the coffin.
