As Lawrence O'Donnell predicted, on the exact day mind you, Trump pulled out as soon as NBC renewed his stupid show Celebrity Apprentice. O'Donnell has been saying this for months and months..giving the exact day and under the exact conditions that it would happen. The man was spot on..watch:
As an added bonus, Huckabee, the 'religious' extremist's favorite biblethumping liar, bowed out as well...although the asshole never really announced. This means the rightwing nutters that make up the majority of Iowa voters won't have Ole Huck to vote for this season..oh the agony! What the hell will they do? Santorum boys and girls..Ricky Santorum if he ever collects enough cash to actually announce his candidacy. If if Ricky doesn't announce..those rightwing nutters in Iowa are screwed..YAY!
What will the GOP do without two of their biggest male clowns running for President? I say male because Batshit Bachmann (still testing the waters) and the Palinator are the two big time female clowns and they haven't announced yet. Oh please....please..let them announce soon! Both are pure comedy gold. But i digress...
Mitch Daniels is still waiting for his first and now second wife's permission to run.She will really help him out as she walked out on his ass and left him holding the bag along with all the kids. She eventually returned after the guy she left Mitch for divorced her. Mitch remarried her. Mitch might let her wear the pants in the family but he hates unions and he really hates Planned Parenthood and will do anything to kill them both so long as the moves don't fuck up his run for President..that is if the wife lets him.
Both Obama and Seth Meyers ripped on Trump who was at the Washington Post table. Trump didn't seem to enjoy the show, but most of those in attendance did.
Obama also cracked some goodies about Batshit Bachmann and every other jackass thinking of running as the GOP candidate.
I loved it. Nothing makes me happier than someone bitchslapping The Donald around and he can't do a damn thing about it.
It also goes out to all those other white men (GOP Congressmen, leaders of the teabaggers) that still find something tobe ignorant about when it comes to our duly elected Half-African/Black President, Barack Obama and his residency or now, gawd help us...as the asshole named Trump has brought up...his college transcripts. When will upstanding GOP members tell these fuckers to sit down and shut the hell up?
Yes, Cracker is a derisive, racist term for white folks. SO? You have a problem with me using a racist term for these racists? WHY? I am using a term that they would understand, at least one would think that speaking in racist terms to people so racist themselves, would make their point very very clear to these imbeciles...but I digress.
The Grio.com has a wonderful OpEd today on this subject and how in over 200 years we have NEVER asked this type of information from one of our duly elected sitting Presidents. Goldie Taylor, I love and respect you woman.She talks about how Black Men had to show 'their papers' in 1899..what has changed? She put those stupid, intellectually-retarded white men in their place. No one did it as well as she did today on Rachel Maddow's show this evening or even better, read her entire written piece at TheGrio. Is is SO WORTH IT.
How dare they. How dare they even have the balls to bring up such fuckery, in public no less.
Our entire nation should be ashamed, and embarrassed that the men represent us in some form or fashion, or in Donald's case..want to. Below is a section of Goldies OpEd. When MSNBC makes it available, I will post her visual readiing of part of her piece:
This morning, as White House staffers released copies of the president's long form birth certificate, I couldn't shake the feeling that something very ugly was going on. For the first time in recorded history, a sitting president of the United States found it necessary to produce his original birth certificate for public inspection. Not once, in 235 years, have we ever demanded proof that our president was born on American soil.
In a stunning display of unchecked ego, Donald Trump quickly hosted a news conference, during which he took credit for forcing President Obama's hand. The sometime real estate developer, socialite, author and television personality went on to caution onlookers to let "experts" examine the document. Lest the president continue perpetrating was Trump has called potentially the "biggest fraud in American history."
It's a fantastic read, she makes them all look and sound as stupid, fucked-up and ridiculous as they are. She says it the way it needs to be said....to these assholes that have nothing better to do than defame our sitting President who was elected by a decent majority of the voting public.
The racist bastards will still command their time in the media. And our corporate media will give it to them.
How fucked up is that? The media will do it without putting them in THEIR place...that place is stunning ignorance and blatant racism that is dressed up as something valid...which couldn't be farther from the truth.. Validity is something their bulllshittery has none of. It's all dressed up but when you remove those trappings all you see is racism at it's best...or really...its worst. For all the world to witness in living-fucking-color.
Goldie on Maddow when it's available. .Update: Its available!
Will Trump take a long walk on a very short pier with leg weights attached to his ankles? Will the 76% of ignorant republicans who believed this whole stupid-ass conspiracy theory get a fucking clue and come back to this planet?
Of course not. They will find something else to bitch and moan about.They will develop a new conspiracy. The Muslim one will find a way to stay alive...wanna bet? Palin and Beck are already lining up a new conspiracy about why Obama picked today to release his birth certificate, bless their fuckwitted asses.
Obama should of let them keep believing the bullshit but no, he went and had his long form birth certificate released. Fucking party pooper. He needed to wait until at least right before the General Election..seriously...so we all could get a good laugh over this.
Now, both of those bankruptcies were business ones, and he personally came out of them clean as the proverbial whistle..but still.....the jackass isn't "all that" in running a business. He is as big a publicity whore as anyone else out there vying for voters on the right.
Second, if you count all of his marriages and those of Eye-of-Newt, you come up with six marriages total. And these morons are trying to appeal to the far right, socially ignorant wingtards? I almost busted my newly fixed spine by laughing so damn hard at this bit o' news.
Wait! update on the number of bankruptcies!
The Donald is still in bankruptcy court on his third drink at that fountain. From the Murdoch-owned WallStJournal:
“I don’t like the ‘b’ word,” Donald Trump declared Thursday from the witness stand in a Camden, N.J., bankruptcy courtroom, explaining why the gambling company that bears his name is now on its third pass through Chapter 11.
Rushed, pre-arranged financial restructurings, “very quick in and out,” left Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc. with more debt than it could bear, the company’s former chairman said.
“The mistake of the first two cases, the debt should have been cut more,” Trump said, adding, “This time, the debt is being cut by a lot.”
Oh hell yeah, give that sumbitch a bigger break on not paying his bills! That is the answer for all bad business decisions...blow off the bills and screw those that trusted you to actually pay your bills.. multiple times!
But we, as individuals, can not blow off our obligations. Even if a Chapter 7 is filed, individual bankruptcies are expected to pay something back to the creditors,even if it means selling your car or other items the court deems 'valuable'. You can thank that wonderful law passed in 2005, which btw was written by the credit card companies, for the changes in filing a Ch 7. In fact, there are reports out there that show the changes made in 2005 have most likely contributed to the foreclosure crisis we are in the middle of.
The Donald is a lousy business man and a serial divorcer..as such, he will never sit in the chair occupied currently by Barack Obama. But he will continue getting a free pass on paying his bills and making lousy business decisions that he can blow off by filing bankrupty. .
Lawd have mercy, what a selection of Republicans, most right, many way right, to choose from! Politico of course has the 411, see the bottom of the post for how the email alert words the same information:
Romney won with 35 percent, beating second-place finisher Ron Paul by 24 points in the WMUR-ABC News straw poll of members of the state Republican Party. In third place was former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who won 8 percent—just one point ahead of Sarah Palin, who drew 7 percent.
*jump to*
Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann won 5 percent, pizza mogul Herman Cain took 4 percent, and Santorum won 3 percent—tied with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, Indiana Rep. Mike Pence and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
The Half-Term Governor from AK did better than I expected and Pence the fuckwit did worse.Santorum and Batshit Bachmann should of gotten nothing, but there is no accounting for some folks tastes is there? Now, the news alert I got in my email put it this way:
The full results from the WMUR/ABC/N.H. Republican Party presidential straw poll are: Mitt Romney with 35% of the 273 ballots cast, Ron Paul with 11%, Tim Pawlenty with 8% and Sarah Palin with 7%. The remaining results: Michele Bachmann and Jim DeMint with 5% each; Herman Cain with 4%; Chris Christie, Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich, Mitch Daniels and Mike Huckabee with 3% each; Rudy Giuliani, Judd Gregg, Gary Johnson and "other" with 2% each; and Donald Trump and Haley Barbour with 1% each. Jon Huntsman Jr. and John Thune were on the ballot but received no votes.(emphasis mine)
I did laugh my brown ass off over Thune's returns or lack thereof. I howled over Haley Barbour's one percent. ;) All, in all, the actual Politico writeup seemed much kinder and gentler to the assholes in the bunch, wouldn't you say?
