Since You Like To Prepare To Watch TV
If you'll be watching the State of the Union tonight, Faithful America offers a reflection on our national score on the Biblical virtues of justice, mercy and humility. They call for openness in government and humility overseas, and keep morality in the public domain (free from paleocon copyright) with the reminder that "budgets are moral documents." Sojourners, an ecumenical group which characterizes itself as progressive where Faithful America's nonpartisan, also offers a resource kit for encountering the State.
On the other hand, to engage with the ideas presented at the same level as the one who'll be reading them, you could take the apostolic approach and go with the perennial drinking game.

Among other important topics, the president mentioned increased efforts to combat international human trafficking and HIV/AIDS -- areas where he has provided record amounts of funding and increased (if still inadequate) pressure on other governments to do the right thing. Even people with whom we disagree sometimes deserve respectful attention.
