This year's #SOTU seating arrangement was created because no one wanted to sit with Lieberman.

That's the lightest I've ever seen Boehner. He must be using bleaching cream. #sotu

— Mat Johnson (@mat_johnson) January 26, 2011

Justice Alito is a no-show for #SOTU. He thought he was going to have to sit next to a Democrat too.

— Mat Johnson (@mat_johnson) January 26, 2011

I really think Obama should've broken through the paper #POTUS logo first. #SOTU

— Mat Johnson (@mat_johnson) January 26, 2011

To be fair to the look on Boehner's face, Biden farted. #SOTU

— Mat Johnson (@mat_johnson) January 26, 2011

#POTUS is right. Scranton and Ohio do suck. #SOTU

What's up with Paul Ryan's eyes? Is he stoned? #SOTU

— Mat Johnson (@mat_johnson) January 26, 2011

If Bachmann looked at the camera, we would turn to stone. #TrainWreck #SOTU

— Mat Johnson (@mat_johnson) January 26, 2011

I just realized what Bachmann's role was: to make mainstream Republicans look sane in comparison. She's the GOPs Flava Flav.

Holy Recon, DC Nation! If new GOP House legislation goes through, Dr. Light innocent of rape of Sue Dibney!!

Gas your own people 20 years ago, we invade. Starve your own people this year, we're not sure if we want to call for your resignation.

— Nick Spencer (@nickspencer) January 30, 2011

Oh, US foreign policy, you never saw a blatant hypocrisy you didn't want to make out with.

— Nick Spencer (@nickspencer) January 30, 2011

I'm seeing chatter that some Egyptians feel the total lack of security/policing in Cairo is intentional by the gov't…

— Rahsan Ekedal (@RahsanEkedal) January 30, 2011

…a strategy of purposeful chaos, make the people cry for the return of order, and thus welcome back the status quo?
