Last night NPR asked listeners to describe President Obama’s State of the Union address “in three words,” and then ran the 4,000 responses through a word cloud generator. And?
Missed the president’s “salmon” moment? It was the laugh line in a section about (ha!) our outmoded, wasteful, convoluted government. To wit:
