3. So Boehner started his response while the President was still talking.

Tell me that this wasn't orchestrated between the Republicans and Faux News. What other reason would there be for him to start his response before the President was even finished?

How can you respond to things that haven't even been said yet? Why would Boehner imagine that anyone would cut away to him in the middle of a Presidential speech, unless it was orchestrated?

This was orchestrated. It was also very rude.

4. See what happens when vital media is owned

by corporations. The recent Supreme Court ruling that corps are entitled to unlimited political spending ought to have started a revolution

7. On MSNBC, they had a split screen...

...the President speaking while Boehner made funny faces... lol

It reminded me of that bit Chevy Chase used to do on SNL.
