Obama 's State of the Union address could have been a campaign speech from last year . While he did give a nod to the opposing party , some of his proposals are non-starters with GOP . For example : * He wants to raise taxes on millionaires and billionaires ( which is something that hasn't happened since Reagan ). Would this be another split-screen State of the Union similar to when networks flashed news of the verdict in O.J . President made it clear that if Congress wo n't deal with issues , he 'll do it by executive order .
