President Obama's State of the Union address was one of the most popular topics on Twitter last night. State and National Editor Ariel Zirulnick live-tweeted the speech, and folks in the Triangle had a lot to say too.
We printed some local #SOTU tweets on page 10 of today's paper. Here's a sample:
@azirulnick: #SOTU "I'm not naive. I never thought my election would lead to ... nonpartisan era."
@liz_i_iz: #SOTU lots of attendees look near-death ancient. Perhaps many aren't standing because they are simply unable.
@mkleinschmidt: It's coming: "I will work with Cngrss and our military to finally repeal the law that denies gay Americans the right to serve. . ." #SOTU
@dcm: SOTU speeches always bug me because of all the tedious clapping and the town shout-outs - "no one rocks like... Springfield!" woooo!
