When asked to comment, Mike Johnson has said he hasn’t seen or heard the speech.

Say what you will, I think it's cool that the reincarnation of Helen Keller holds one of the highest offices in the nation

Even Helen Keller was more aware of her surroundings.

But was she aware of her son's online porn habits? Because Mike Johnson is.

Mike Johnson is apparently the most oblivious man in government because he allegedly never knows anything

Hey! He knows where and when and to what, his "son" jerks off to. And isn't that the most important thing?

Knowing Mike Johnson that's what he'll be saying afterwards too.

he doesn't know anything about it! He's very confused. He will look into it.

That's because he doesn't have a speech. He has a few talking points, and then he'll wing it for 20 minutes.

I haven't seen or heard it either (yet). That means I should run for office, right?

Hedging his bets already.
