State of the Union Bingo


Denver poltico Sarah Moss has the best State of the Union Bingo Card, you should print it out and play during the President's annual address to a joint session of Congress Tuesday night.

This year, though, there are plenty of cards to play along with including those from special interest advocacy groups:


While the National Constitution Center is hosting a viewing party and has advertised bingo cards, those available for download appear to be 2010 editions.

So I would go with the card from Sarah Moss. If you play, and turn in your card 2 points of civic action EC. If you get a bingo, +2 more, and if you get the cabinet member that stays home Tuesday night in case Mars Attacks, +2 more.

Every State of the Union in our History

(From Ken Halla's US Government Teachers Blog)

Of course Thomas Jefferson, a notoriously poor public speaker, choose not to do the State of the Union in person and it was not until Woodrow Wilson that we had our addresses done in Congress again.  Here is every one from Washington through Obama.
