2009 SONA Word Cloud

To be fair, the president used “inclusive” pronouns such as “we,” “our” and “atin” quite a lot. But she used an alarming number of instances of “I” as well.

So is it really about the State of the Nation or the State of Gloria’s Presidency?

  1. How alarming should I be since this is her presidency, It should be alarming if she was not able to present to the country any or substantial progress – of which she was able to do despite the noisy relentless, unforgiving critics.

  2. The SONA should not be about her.

  3. she did bring up some valid points.
