When Will The State Of The Union Address Really Take Place?

I know its generally around the 20th and that a lot of people expect that to be this year's date. I seem to recall that it may be delayed this year because the House is scheduled to come back much later (the 31st I believe).

So does anyone know the real date, if one has been set? I ask because when I go to DC to demand Impeachment I want someone other than Bush to be there.

Make your plans now to participate in drowning out Bush's lies:
Date of state of the union address just announced - January 31
Start organizing now!

1) 1/31, on the night of Bush�s State of the Union address: In large cities and small towns all across the country - join in rallies to make the demand that "Bush Step Down" the news & message of the day. At 9pm EST - just as Bush starts to speak we will bring on the noise and drown out his address - bring your voi ce, and make a commitment to the world that not another year will be lived under this criminal regime.

2) Demonstrate the following Saturday, 2/4, in Washington DC to deliver the people's verdict on Bush�s criminal regime - "Bush Step down and take your program with you!" Contact your local chapter to purchase your plane or bus ticket now.

10. State of disUnion is scheduled for January 31st -- breaking news

Breaking news: thanks to Chicago chapter, we heard that Robert Novak, a
right-wing commentator, wrote in a Sunday column in the Chicago Sun
Times (don't du'ers read Novak?) that the State of the Union will be Tuesday, January 31. We
checked through a Congressional office who confirmed the date. We are
still going to check a little further, as there is nothing on the White
House website yet.

12. I'm sure Junior had one State of The Union in a March

I can't remember what year that was, but I remember it was very late and sometime in March.

See, the rules aren't applicable when you're King afterall.
