This year in the U.S., both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address occur on the same day. And as it has been pointed out:
“It is an ironic juxtaposition of events: one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a Groundhog.“
