I did a quick search on Google, and as far as I can see, the justices failed to show up for the speech (an unusual breach of etiquette) but it doesn't seem that it was what could be reasonably described as a "boycott". --LeeHunter 21:26, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Non encyclopedic, at best merge into an article on Clinton. — Sortior 22:11, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)
- Title inherently assumes a POV interpretation. Even if what appears to be merely an editor's speculation was substantiated, this would be a footnote, not its own article. As it is, without substantiation, this isn't even worth a footnote. -- Antaeus Feldspar 22:53, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- I wouldn't call this POV. But it's still not substantial enough to have a full article on it. Merge into a Clinton-related article. --Idont Havaname 00:08, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: I think it is POV, and it's silly. (First time ever, eh? So...during the Civil War it didn't happen?) Then there is "boycott" and an attribution of motive, and I've just written more words than are in the article. Geogre 03:40, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: but each State of the Union address would merit an article. Samaritan 06:44, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- Delete, merge somewhere if you can. --fvw* 11:49, 2004 Nov 27 (UTC)
- Keep, expand the article over time. -- Crevaner 10:59, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Keep - Yes, the article simply needs time to be expanded. -- Old Right 11:25, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
