Short and sweet, and covers the subject in a nutshell <g>
BTW, for non-US; the Groundhog Day is Feb 2nd. Supposedly, on that day, he comes out from his underground cave to test the waters. If he sees his shadow (ie the day's sunny), he pops right back in - the rest of the winter is likely to be severe. If the day is gray, he stays out, as the winter will be mild.

Wednesday was Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address. It is an ironic juxtaposition: one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, and the other involves a groundhog.
