The Significance of Groundhog Day

( I wish I could say I first made this observation but alas, I did not... can't seem to be able to track down the original source either. Whoever you are, hearty handshake to you. )

In 2012, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address will occur on the same day.

This is an ironic juxtaposition of events.

One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to an insignificantcreature of little intelligence for prognostication.

The other involves a groundhog.
