Maxine Waters - "He is the most despicable human being". This is not what I want to hear from my law makers. Grow up. Exercise respect.

Article II, Section 3, in part says "He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient;"
