In a perfect world & State of the Union (SOTU)

in a perfect world....
--all my clothes would fit all the time regardless of how much i ate :)
--their would be no violence of any kind
--the light will always be green for me to go especially when i am running a tad bit late
--everyone would be nice to each other and follow the rule: if you have nothing nice to say, do not say anything!
--everything would be on sale ALL the time or at least Buy one Get on Free (BOGO)
--wal-mart would have all 35 lanes open at all times rather than 5 out of 35
--people would not feel the need to lie
--people would not have fatal diseases like cancer, heart disease, HIV/AIDS etc...or at least there would be cures for these diseases and there would be a cure for diabetes.
--people could love who it is they want to love without judgement from family, friends and even society.
 **i am sure the list could go on and on...what would take place in your perfect world?

now on to the State of the Union (SOTU)...this is a twitter hashtag now right??: #SOTU
i agree with a lot of the items mentioned and i disagree with some. i am glad that we are moving away from foreign oil and using our own, but if this is the case...why is gas still well over $3.40 a gallon? i agree we should allow individuals who want to come to America for a better life do so legally, but i do not think we should drain other countries of their best and brightest. how will their country ever move out of being a "developing country" to a developed country if America has all of their individuals that could make a difference? i really agreed with the President in finding a way to encourage men to be better and RESPONSIBLE fathers. if you make a woman a mother, you need to be man enough to be a father to your child/children. i found it really touching and emotional to her the President talk about gun control issues and that they deserve a "VOTE". they do deserve a vote and i was pleased to hear that the President was not forcing Congress to vote only "YES", he said, your vote can be "NO", just vote because they deserve it and it is our job to not only keep our children safe, but our citizens safe also. overall, it was good, and if we can all, regardless of party, work together we would have a safe, and prosperous nation that we can continue to be proud of. what was your take on the SOTU address?
