The Real State of the Union

The longtime tradition of the annual REAL State of the Union event was to hoot and holler in counter to the Bush State of the Union message. A chance to reverse the adminstration’s spin. What would it be like when the Bush empire ended? Well, this year's event - held on Tuesday, Feb. 10 - was still a stem-winding good time delivered by AJC columnist Jay Bookman and Rev. Joe Lowery.

Lowery about our role in relation to Obama: "We have to continue to speak truth to power, no matter who holds the reins of power." 

Lowery on the first black chairman of the Republican Party: "Michael Steele shows that no one race holds a monopoly on foolishness.” The church was full of Amens.
