Today, President Obama will deliver his State of the Union address on the thousandth day since Senate Democrats have passed a budget.  This marks almost three years that Democrats have spent ignoring their most basic responsibility as lawmakers. That’s over thirty-three months. It’s one hundred and forty-three weeks. But just how long have Democrats been violating the law and ignoring their most basic responsibility as lawmakers? Some ideas for context:

In 1,000 days, the average American will:

• Sleep 7,600 hours days
• Spend  108 days doing sports or leisure activities
• Spend about $500 on coffee (taxes not included)
• Devote 66,000 minutes to eating
• Laugh 15,000 times (does not take into account currently high Misery Index)
• Grow a foot and a half of hair.
• Pay $11,634 for gasoline, ($5,957 of which are from taxes)
• Watch 4,500 hours of TV
• Go on 12 dates (hey, it’s hard to afford a movie in the Obama economy)

Since Democrats were not budgeting for the past 1,000 days, this is what they could have done:

• Watch all 13,858 episodes of ‘As The World Turns’ forwards…then backwards
• Save $5 day to start a Roth IRA
• Travel the width of the Milky Way Galaxy moving at the speed of one light-year each day
• Lose twenty pounds by simply cutting out 100 calories per day
• Complete an Education Leadership Doctoral Program from Harvard
• Name a baby African Elephant after monitoring its mother’s entire pregnancy
• Land a Humanoid Robot on the moon (as NASA planned to do with Project M)
• Beat the world record for the fastest time to visit all 124 United Nations countries (current record: three years, three months and six days)
• Complete Obama’s entire health care bill by reading two pages a day (since no one bothered to do this ahead of voting for the new law)
