Facebook poll: How many of you watched the president’s State of the Union address?

On Tuesday night, Gaydos posted to the show Facebook page, saying he wasn’t going to be watching President Obama’s State of the Union address because “[he] I had better things to do.”

But what about the rest of you?

Over 160 of you responded on Facebook and the majority of you either watched hockey (or a movie) instead or were highly critical of the president’s statement of “I’ll act on my own.”

I listened to it on the way home. He’s going to do what he wants without legislation? Sounds like a dictator. And he never said HOW he is going to take care of immigration and stated unemployment rate is down. Of course it is!!! They kicked everyone off the extended unemployment!!!
— Patti C.

I have watched all of them up until last night’s because I feel the same way. What’s the point…he says exactly the same thing…he complains more than my kids do about not getting his way, he won’t hold himself accountable for anything (blames everyone = victim mentality), basically threatens them that if they don’t do what he wants that he will do it anyway through executive order (thinks he is a dictator), and is so arrogant that I’m surprised that anyone can fit in same room as his ego. — Karin W.

Didn’t want to watch a know-it-all who got only 51% of the vote and will do what he wants, regardless of congress…guess he thinks only his minimal-win votes count and not those votes for Congress and Senate. Hope the next pres. is good at damage control. — Val N.

I have given up on Congress and the Supreme Court, but only after I realized that the Dictator wasn’t going to let them do their jobs anyway. — Matt J.

A small number of you defended the president or even liked what he had to say, but a larger portion of you said you did watch it but added that you just didn’t trust the president anymore.

I watched bits and pieces here and there. For the most part, it sounded like someone trying to tell everyone what they wanted to hear without much of the how and when…blowing smoke. — Jason G.

What he says he’s going to do always ends up being different from what he actually does…So, no point in listening anymore. — Issac L.

Brain cells are too precious to waste on more lies. — Kim R.

Did *you* watch the State of the Union? What did *you* think of the president’s address?
