State of the Union

You don't have to listen to Obama tonight to find out the state of the union. Gagdad Bob at One Cosmos has already told us:

Weak. Divisive. Fractured. Politically controlled but morally deregulated.

The left likes to say that Obama is a "constitutional scholar," by which they really mean that he thoroughly cased the joint before taking office. He studied the Constitution the way a counterfeiter studies money.

Limited government offers few ways for resentment and envy to be fungible to political power, since there is little surplus power to redistribute, only the powers specifically enumerated in the Constitution. And those are no fun for a political opportunist on a satanic mission.
