The Union’s Troubled State
A strikingly unaudacious speech from Barack Obama failed to address America’s problems
IN A show of civility prompted by the dreadful shootings in Tucson, Republicans and Democrats sat side by side to hear Barack Obama’s state-of-the-union message. But that truce could not hide the fact that the two sides have starkly different analyses of what has gone wrong in America. And in so far as either side has solutions to offer (which is sadly not very far), these are starkly different, too. Everyone pretends to be in favour of bipartisan dialogue, but it is a dialogue of the deaf.

Feel free to send me links to other interesting MOCUSes.
Urban dictionary:

You need to forgive his blithering; he just got out of detox so he's really mocus.
