Obama Takes On Trump And Birthers At The White House Correspondents Dinner

Video
» 330 comments

President Obama was introduced with an intentionally cheesy video package (picture Barney Stinson‘s video resume from “How I Met Your Mother”) set to Rick Derringer‘s “I Am A Real American” and featuring a repeating shot of his birth certificate set against an American flag background. Obama addressed the birther issue in his speech as well, announcing “I am prepared to go a step further…I am releasing my official birth video,” which turned out to be the opening number from The Lion King. Well played, Mr. President.

Obama’s delivery, so effective for most public addresses, didn’t lend itself so well to delivering zingers. Nonetheless, he made the handicap work for him, poking fun at criticism he’s received for being “professorial” and “arrogant.” He made a point to address the haters individually: of Matt Damon‘s criticism of his performance so far, he said “I just saw The Adjustment Bureau, so right back ‘atcha buddy!” He also took the opportunity to start a rumor that Rep. Michele Bachmann was actually born in Canada, concluding gravely “Yes, Michele, this is how it starts.”

The President even had a few choice words for Donald Trump, who was in the audience tonight as a guest of The Washington Post (we’re…still sort of confused about this). Obama suggested that Trump must be relieved to put the birther issue to rest, so he can focus on important questions, like “Where are Biggie and Tupac?” and “Was the moon landing faked?” Things got real when Obama held up an episode of “Celebrity Apprentice” as an example of Trump’s very presidential leadership ability, citing his firing of Gary Busey two weeks ago as “the kind of decision that would keep me up at night. Well handled, sir!” Ouch! Trump bore this onslaught, which was actually kind of savage, with dignity, smiling tightly throughout.

Things dragged a bit with a fake movie trailer of unexpected bloopers from Obama, and… just some normal everyday gaffes from Joe Biden, called “The President’s Speech.” Obama seemed most comfortable when he took a serious moment to acknowledge the real danger that journalists face covering natural disasters like the recent storms in the South, or the recent revolutions in the Middle East. Unsurprisingly, the speech netted a standing ovation. No word on whether Trump stayed in his seat or not!

    The shaming of Donald Trump was brutal by both Obama and Meyers! Just beautiful. And Trump was fuming … and the whole room was laughing at him.

  • Jaurez

    There’s a bottle of aspirin in Obamas medicine cabinet and it says “Trump” on it.

  • Newsjunky

    Awesome. Trump is a total tool and looked the part tonight. What an idiot. Congrats to the Prez and Seth Meyers for letting that douche have it. Just sitting there stone faced … Hahahahahaha!

  • ElCapitanAmerica

    The president did great, I was surprised by Seth was expecting he’d bomb.

    Trump looked like a sore loser by not taking it well *at all*. You can tell he was not happy, and he deserved every second of it.

  • Jaurez

    Obama always acts tough when he knows the other person isn’t allowed to talk. What a coward.

  • Jaurez

    Just knowing how bad Obama want to have Trump offed makes me all tingly.

    Obama in front of his biggest cover-up artists. He is the joke. Trump is a joke but he has Obuma on the run. Obama can’t beat Pee Wee Herman.

  • rubberneck

    Yeah, not sure why Trump even showed up to this. He got hammered pretty good. Then again some of his antics have been brutal as well.

    Kinda of surprised the Washington Post invited him. Obviously, they are looking for some sort of handout.

  • MrTPar_taY

    Roflmao! He’s the potus. He’s actually at a disadvantage when it comes to responding to petulant attacks from you wingers. He can not do it and neither can flotus. This was a perfect setting for Obama to mock you birthers and boy did he do it by making you wingnuts look like the morons you are.

    Some of Seth’s jokes were flat, but, those Trump jokes were harsh and on point. They really went at him. The ones especially about the fox on his head were brutal. Obama’s really sarcastic dings at Trump werewell delivered. LOL! I actually felt bad for Trump.

    The 2nd Obama video about the “President’s Speech” had me in stitches. Self deprecation is awesome. Trump got slaughtered and it was awesome seeing him sit there and take it haha. At least he was man enough to show up.

    Start to finish hilarious! Meyers truly skewered Trump – and C-SPAN. But more importanltly Obama demonstrated how he’s going to sweep the 2012 election despite Tealiban ignorance being sold to the rubes.

  • commonsensemajority

    Looks like a lot of kool-aid drinkers wanted to get their comments on here first. Both O & Myers were pretty flat in general. Could have done with a “Ricky Gervais” who wouldn’t care about roasting everyone in the room, including the President. Seth Myers was constantly kissing the butt of the President and Michelle – pretty embarrassing.

    Obama was really quite funny!! Seth is hillarious – pretty funny about Katie Couric referring to none other then Queen Moron. Saw bristol – she looked just like a white moose!! Did she think she was back on DWTS? Seth should have had a joke about Queen Moron claiming obama lies.

    Seth Meyer practically kissed Obama’s as*. He didn’t give one good shot to Obama; he is the black calf that people can’t speak ill about, because he is black. That is what Affirmative Action does for America, it has ruined it, and inept people like Obama prove the Peter Principal oh so accurately when he became the president.

    Meyer can say goodbye to his career and you just know Obama’s people helped Meyer write his material.
    That was not humor or comedy or close to even being funny, it was total humiliation and if Meyer thinks he will get away with that, he is in for a rude awaking.

    Trump was not there to be roasted, but Meyer tried to burn him at the stake, he did not succeed because to insult The Donald is like insulting the Godfather and we all know who wins in the end.

    Great Job Mr. President and Seth, you showed Trump for exactly what he is…..an egotistical bully & loud mouth!! Everyone else laughed along, but he didn’t crack a smile, even people at his table was laughing at him…I had just read that he said the President wouldn’t mention him, how did you like it Trump? He’s done, people can’t stand him, and I hope they don’t renew Celebrity, wouldn’t that hit him in the balls, if he has any real ones……

    Back when Fox’s “1/2 Hour News Hour” was on, I remember reading an article about why most most comedians are liberals. The secret is that liberals are usually the underdogs, and self-depreciation comes along with that. No one roots for the jocks in a jocks vs. nerds movie – and the Republicans are always the jocks.

    Conservatives are uber-confident, usually to the point of arrogance (see: Limbaugh, Hannity, pretty much everybody). There is nothing funny about that. When people like that try to be funny, they usually come off as mean-spirited or racist. As opposed to liberals, who are far more likely to poke fun at themselves.

    The point is, liberals are funny. And comedians are usually liberal, for obvious reasons.

  • ganymede

    I continue to wonder what it’s going to take for you rightwingers to tone down your ‘dislike’ of President Obama. Why is he so evil in your eyes? He’s really trying to help our nation out of a serious mess that he didn’t create, and while he’s making progress, things would be much better if you could be more sensible and supportive. In the liberal ‘alternative’ universe we have sufficient imagination to realize the disasters we’d be in if McCain//Palin had won. You don’t have to agree on everything, but your total resistance to him is doing much more harm than good. But that’s the yin and the yang of the world. Fortunately, most people will support him in 2012 simply because the Republicans have no coherent program and are seriously divided, and we are making progress, albeit slowly.

    It’s also nice to see Karl Spensen back in action. You rightwingers may not know this, but he is one of the funniest and most perceptive commentators on Mediaite.

    That was the danger, he didn’t keep on Trump that long, it could have been bad if he did. Maybe it seemed longer because Seth really dumped on Trump.

    The president did spend quite a bit of time on the birther issue (not Trump directly), but of course everybody expected that (starting from his intro video “Real American”).

    I find it funny how you liberals have it backwards about Palin being a quitter. Let’s look at the facts from the perspective of the People.

    - Palin resigned so someone else could come in and focus on the people’s business. It’s called selfless.
    - On the other hand, as soon as Obama won the Senate seat, he started running for President. Instead of resigning to Illinois could get some real representation, Obama USED the PUBLIC OFFICE for his own gain. It’s called selfish.

    “President Obama Takes On Trump” WHAT A BOGUS HEADLINE.

    Obama doesn’t have the balls to take on Trump one on one; he needed the protection of his corrupt media {a captive Trump} and a loser like Seth Meyer to deliver Obama’s writers “fighting words”.

    Meyer will be toasted tonight as their hero, but what about next week when he has to stand alone, he will then recognize himself as a useful idiot for Obama and another idiot will be under the bus.

    Meyer, what you did to yourself tonight is what is known in life as self-undoing, you alone are responsible for your own downfall. Have a good life kiddo!

    On the other hand, as Obama keeps working to destroy the economy, he might end up in that group too.

    We are seeing firsthand that the drive to force everything to be “equal” sucks for people and the normal drive for success has been and always will be better for people.

    - Palin resigned so someone else could come in and focus on the people’s business. It’s called selfless.
    - On the other hand, as soon as Obama won the Senate seat, he started running for President. Instead of resigning to Illinois could get some real representation, Obama USED the PUBLIC OFFICE for his own gain. It’s called selfish.

    No amount of sophistry will obfuscate the fact that your dumbass lady demagogue QUIT her day job as a representative of the people in government. She QUIT.

    Not that your obsession has anything to do with Obama’s masterful handling of a very ugly issue, I think Terry Lakin is both very cowardly and very racist.

    Question for you: why do you hate the men and women in the United States military? I mean, you must hate them. Because Lakin’s racist cowardice in refusing to deploy meant someone had to go in harm’s way in his place. That anonymous doctor is a hero and a soldier. And you don’t even acknowledge that brave soldier. To call a dishonorable, selfish weasel like Lakin a soldier is a disservice and a slap in the face to all who wear the uniform.

    Your argument is horse pucky. The president didn’t “milk” the birth certificate- he produced the legal document Hawaii provided to him back in 2008. Just because some of you are foolish enough to listen to idiots who don’t know what they are talking about doesn’t mean the president “milked” it, but some other folks sure did. People like Oily Taitz who managed to separate a bunch of people form their money and got some military people to risk their freedom and careers for her brand of bull crap. Anyone foolish enough to buy into that absolute untruth and lies deserves what they got. The president did all he needed to do in 2008 when he showed his certificate back during the campaign. The fact that he got a special dispensation from Hawaii to obtain a copy of the original certificate and released it is a disgrace on all of you who refused to accept the certificate from 2008. The actual racism that the birther crap masks is what the problem is. I know- you are going to claim it isn’t racism, because you aren’t a racist because “you have black friends” but we all know better. This who;e thing is based in racism and the fact that a bunch of people can’t stand that there is a black man in the White House.

  • Barack Must Go

    Barack Obama is his own as well as America’s worst enemy. He is so dumb……how dumb is he? He is so _____ing dumb he believes because he and Meyers brutalized Donald Trump in a room 96% filled with people that have actually given Barack a ____job and would’ve again right there in front of the whole world that Trump is finished, over, caput.Seriously Barack you narcissistic moron?

    Barack, for supposedly being so smart, and really born in America ( well he was raised in Indonesia by an America hating mom ) obviously never heard of the ‘ he who laughs last ‘ rule or chooses once more to ignore it ( Justice Alito at state of union address ) simply because he’s a cocky sob.

    Like he’s finding out from the Suprene court, the same will be true regarding Donald Trump.

    Trump will announce he is running in another week which spike his already impresive showing up another 10 points or more. Simultaniosly Barack’s numbers will plummet about the same amount.

    Whether or not Trump wins is not the real issue. The fact that Trump personally has approximately the same amout of cash Barack has stolen from the ” real ” American people and he will spend every penny of it to expose Obama for the un – American crook he really is right before the eyes and ears of the entire world.

    Anyone that doubts Trumps ability to singlehandedly utterly destroy Obama’s political present as well as future, also believes Barack isn’t just a huge jerkoff that had no intention of releasing his BC until The Donald forced him to.

    Some miserable liberal wretches actually believe in their heart of hearts it was just by chance that Barack, after 21/2 years of lying to and stonewalling the ” real ” American people, he released the document because he actually gives a _____ about what he has done to this country and just wants to move on.

    Check his poll numbers, they tell the truth of why he was forced, kicking and screaming to do so, not he did so for the good of the country. That was just one more of his bald faced lies directly to the faces of the ” real ” American people, as well as the liberals living among us.

    Your argument is horse pucky. The president didn’t “milk” the birth certificate- he produced the legal document Hawaii provided to him back in 2008. Just because some of you are foolish enough to listen to idiots who don’t know what they are talking about doesn’t mean the president “milked” it, but some other folks sure did. People like Oily Taitz who managed to separate a bunch of people form their money and got some military people to risk their freedom and careers for her brand of bull crap. Anyone foolish enough to buy into that absolute untruth and lies deserves what they got. The president did all he needed to do in 2008 when he showed his certificate back during the campaign. The fact that he got a special dispensation from Hawaii to obtain a copy of the original certificate and released it is a disgrace on all of you who refused to accept the certificate from 2008. The actual racism that the birther crap masks is what the problem is. I know- you are going to claim it isn’t racism, because you aren’t a racist because “you have black friends” but we all know better. This who;e thing is based in racism and the fact that a bunch of people can’t stand that there is a black man in the White House.

    Barack Obama is as racist as the day is long. His entire manifesto is based on him deciding he was within his rights in arbitrarilly taking from the white ( rich ) and giving to the black ( poor ).

    He has done NOTHING in his 21/2 years in office for the white middle to upper middle class but make us his scapegoat for all his radical plans.

    Why should us ” real ” Americans want anything to do with a man/child that has proven he hates everything about us but our money? He has also turned those among us that have less against us and now you hate us as much as he does.

    Well you better try to have him make good on those false promises he made to you because come election day he is history…..ancient at that.

    he got a couple of funny liners in there, but not nearly as funny as some of his other comedy bits. the film The President’s Speech was kind of a dud, but the Lion King clip was funny.

    The blinged up Trump White House was funny. (it’s kind of funny/odd he did that, after a few people got in trouble – called racist – for their joke versions of an *Obama White House*.)

    I wonder if Donald Trump was invited because Obama wanted him there to mock him.

    Michelle Obama looked very pretty.

    I was pretty offended and outraged when Obamo told the assembled media hacks, “Go out and be my racers; go out and yell the word ‘RACISM!’ every chance you get, just like an arsonist would yell the word ‘FIRE!’”

    That’s the part of his speech I disliked the most.

    Barack Obama is his own as well as America’s worst enemy. He is so dumb……how dumb is he? He is so _____ing dumb he believes because he and Meyers brutalized Donald Trump in a room 96% filled with people that have actually given Barack a ____job and would’ve again right there in front of the whole world that Trump is finished, over, caput.Seriously Barack you narcissistic moron?

    Barack, for supposedly being so smart, and really born in America ( well he was raised in Indonesia by an America hating mom ) obviously never heard of the ‘ he who laughs last ‘ rule or chooses once more to ignore it ( Justice Alito at state of union address ) simply because he’s a cocky sob.

    Like he’s finding out from the Suprene court, the same will be true regarding Donald Trump.

    Trump will announce he is running in another week which spike his already impresive showing up another 10 points or more. Simultaniosly Barack’s numbers will plummet about the same amount.

    Whether or not Trump wins is not the real issue. The fact that Trump personally has approximately the same amout of cash Barack has stolen from the ” real ” American people and he will spend every penny of it to expose Obama for the un – American crook he really is right before the eyes and ears of the entire world.

    Anyone that doubts Trumps ability to singlehandedly utterly destroy Obama’s political present as well as future, also believes Barack isn’t just a huge jerkoff that had no intention of releasing his BC until The Donald forced him to.

    Some miserable liberal wretches actually believe in their heart of hearts it was just by chance that Barack, after 21/2 years of lying to and stonewalling the ” real ” American people, he released the document because he actually gives a _____ about what he has done to this country and just wants to move on.

    Check his poll numbers, they tell the truth of why he was forced, kicking and screaming to do so, not he did so for the good of the country. That was just one more of his bald faced lies directly to the faces of the ” real ” American people, as well as the liberals living among us.

    The problem with your theory is that from the beginning it was liberals who initiated the American revolution with the conservative Torries siding with the British. The conservatives did not want a free country, they wanted to continue serving the British crown, and the Church of England. Later, the conservatives fought against labor laws, pollution regulation, laws limiting guns, and a woman’s right to choose, and even a woman’s right to vote.

    Conservatives resist change, liberals encourage change. Conservative Torries fought against the founding of our country, and the liberals of the day, eg. Jefferson and company, risked everything to create it. Likewise, when children were being packed into sweat shops the liberals fought for reform, while the conservatives insisted that any regulation of labor would hurt our economy, just like they say now.

    Another problem you have in addition to ignorance of history, Val, is that you get your definition of “Conservative” from Liberals. Ya see, Conservatives are all about “change” from the Marxist agenda that Democrats have enabled the likes of Hussein and his Communist-infested cabinet to inflict against America in direct contradiction to our Conservative Constitution that makes that agenda highly illegal.

    Conservative philosophy is mirrored in the Constitution. as both seek to protect the rights, property, and liberties of the INDIVIDUAL as opposed to the un-American Liberal preference for the dominance of the government over the individual…………………the exact “Liberal” (that’s with a capital “L”) scenario the King of England sought to enforce over American revolutionary individualists.

    Bush presided over less than half of the bailouts. Then came Obama:

    Geithner prevailed on Obama bailout plan

    WASHINGTON — “The Obama administration’s new plan to bail out the nation’s banks ….”

    On Monday evening, new details emerged after lawmakers were briefed on the plan. It will call for the creation of a joint Treasury and Federal Reserve program, at an initial cost of $250 billion to $500 billion, to encourage investors to acquire soured mortgage-related assets from banks. The Fed will use its balance sheet to provide the financing, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. may provide guarantees to investors who participate.

    A second component of the plan will broadly expand, to between $500 billion and $1 trillion, an existing $200 billion program run by the Federal Reserve to try to unfreeze the market for commercial, student, auto and credit-card loans.

    A third component will involve a review of the capital levels of all banks, including projections of future losses, to determine how much additional capital each bank should receive. The capital injections would come out of the remaining $350 billion in the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP.

    So, let’s add-up the score. Anti-American Democrats: 50 years of demanding bigger deficits to buy votes with and bigger government to snuff-out more and more liberty…………….versus one Liberal Republican administration. Hmmmm…………….

    Another problem you have in addition to ignorance of history, Val, is that you get your definition of “Conservative” from Liberals. Ya see, Conservatives are all about “change” from the Marxist agenda that Democrats have enabled the likes of Hussein and his Communist-infested cabinet to inflict against America in direct contradiction to our Conservative Constitution that makes that agenda highly illegal.

    The expressions “conservative” and “liberal” long pre-date Marx. In general, conservatives oppose change and liberals encourage change, that is the dynamic. In the interaction between doing nothing and doing something, something gets done and we call that progress.

    Conservative philosophy is mirrored in the Constitution. as both seek to protect the rights, property, and liberties of the INDIVIDUAL as opposed to the un-American Liberal preference for the dominance of the government over the individual…………………the exact “Liberal” (that’s with a capital “L”) scenario the King of England sought to enforce over American revolutionary individualists.

    I wish that was a definition of conservative, but it is not. A conservative seeks to preserve the status quo, and the status quo back in the 1700s provided very little liberty. Liberals like Jefferson sought to change the status quo at the risk of their lives. So what was the status quo? Royal power, Church power, and rich people power. our Constitution limits all of three, in favor of individual liberty.

    The biggest problem facing us ” real ” Americans today is the way the black community organizer in our White House highjack the narrative and twist what is and is not a right of citizens of this country.

    He intetwines social security ( a right ) with social justice ( a cancer ).

    He is singlehandedly attempting to covert that which was meant as a social safety net ( welfare, medicaide ) into a social wasteland whereby any poor person in this country is ( by some Obama regime given right ) entitle to everything ( Medical care, housing, food, higher education etc ) just by virtue of existing.

    Those are not the founding principles of America, nor are they what has seperated ( Exceptionalism ) us from them ( the rest of the world ) for over two hundred years.

    If We the People give in to this radical and the cancer he spreads through our sovereign nation we lose what it truly means to be an AMERICAN and become just like everyone else in the world.

    of course there’s going to be someone yelling about how, “that’s why there’s a tea party!” well let me ask you, how many of those candidates were voted out of office because of their decision? The tea party was spurred on by the republican establishment in an effort to make the republican party look like a populist opposition party. It did work in 2010, but with the absurd candidates they have now, it’s doubtful they have a chance of winning the presidency.

    That’s because we Americans have applied liberal and conservative to parties that are both liberal and conservative in their own ways. That’s why you hear of “little c” conservatives and “big C” Conservatives. Conservative in the little c sense is exactly what Ben Pratt described, protecting the status quo and keeping power to the political/religious establishments. “Little l” liberal is a derivation of liberty which means more personal freedom and responsibility. Libertarians are the closest to this definition of liberal, except when they go all crazy Rand on us. In the US “Liberal” (note the big L) has come to describe the progressive ideas and “Conservative” have come to describe Republican ideas, which are often quite different than little c conservative.

    Ben Pratt said:

    Sure they can. Right is right…………Left is WRONG. Simple.

    Liberals can be identified in 3 catagories……………..one large one, and two smaller ones. The large group are those who are missing the part of the brain that considers results to be relevant. Otherwise, they can function just fine…………up to and including genius capacity. But as soon as the subject requires consideration of results………….Liberals go blank. It’s the deer-in-the-headlights stare that’s the same as if someone just spoke Chinese to them. They go about their daily lives, satisfied with the short, sound-bites fired at them at 6:00 PM on TV, and no time for further analysis of world events.

    A smaller group of Liberals are the politicians. They don’t care whether the hungry get fed or the nation survives an attack by foreign enemies or economic disasters. They shift their views as fast as UpChuck Schumer, and ONLY care about remaining in power…………..NO MATTER WHAT.

    Then, there is the third group. These are the dangerous ones who utilize the other 2 groups as “useful idiots” to their evil agenda against individual liberty, prosperity, and self determination. They are the ideologues of government oppression. They consider the only “fair” form of equality to be UNIFORMITY. They work to destroy man’s sense of dignity by turning him into a dependent weakling, thereby feeding their own lust for power over the masses they consider too incompetent to be allowed self-determination.

    I choose to give credit to most of the Liberal posters here for being in the first, large group of suckers, emotionally duped into service to the other 2 smaller groups. Without benefit of ability to consider results, they are hopeless in existing apart from their “thinkers”………………..those they bestow with the power to do their thinking for them. They repeat what they’re told to repeat, and accept their instructions without question.

    Conservatives, on the other hand, are the very opposite of the Liberals above, and are the congregation following the ideals of America’s founding in individual liberty, property, and pursuit of prosperity. We realize that REAL equality is a level playing field void of discriminate application of rules and regulations. We recognize that justice is blind……………by necessity. We understand that a government that endeavors to control is a government that cannot avoid corruption regardless of the nobility of the original intent. We believe in the government described in the US Constitution……………….a government limited to protection of individual freedom, private property, and individual life. Perhaps the main trait we possess is the un-detractable determination to view results as relevant.

    Perhaps the best description of the difference between Conservatives and Liberals was written by C. S. Lewis when he stated, “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive……………………the robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated. But those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”

    Well, sure, what I said is a generalization. But check it out, in the 19th century, conservatives fought for slavery and sought to protect and perserve the status quo on that, Constiutionally, by invoking the 10th Amendment. By me saying that the conservatives of the civil war era fought for slavery, I do not imply that currently conservatiives support slavery, or that slavery is a plank in the conservative platform, but it used to be. The radicals of the day were “social liberals” who fought against the business interests of the status quo, and who sought a federal solution to slavery. The conservative argument then, and now (with regard to several issues) is the same, don’t tread on me, as if conscientious men could ever permit by law, or right, men to abuse their brothers.

    Everyone has an opinion about Trump’s motives, therefore, I’ll express my own. First of all, I don’t think Donald’s fragile ego would survive a presidential campaign. Secondly, I do believe when all the wealthy dudes have their annual economic summit, in NY, the main topic is which political party in DC, will best serve their interests. My honest nonpartisan opinion is that Trump, due to his influence and many friends in high places, was chosen by America’s wealthiest to go after Obama, in hopes of replacing him with a more ‘republican’ type of president. Imo, I honestly believe Trump and his wealthy friends, will fight till the end, to keep capitalism alive and well in the US. Obama and the liberal Dems may have a huge fight on their hands, when it comes to raising money for 2012. This could get really down and dirty.

    Conservatives by definition uphold INDIVIDUAL liberty. The Constitution is a Conservative creation as is our nation’s original founding. Slavery was never condoned by Conservatives or our founders, and is why the Constitution never authorizes ownership of another human being. Can you say, “ALL men are created equal?” The federal government, however, went right on protecting an unconstitutional right to own slaves, just as it goes right on today protecting unconstitutional confiscation of property and businesses…………………….LIBERAL style.

    The common man is not at fault that there are literally not enough jobs that pay a fair wage. Those jobs were supposed to appear after the Bush tax cuts had a chance to trickle down through the system but instead of those tax savings being reinvested in our economy, and creating new jobs, they were reinvested in the Chinese economy and parked in offshore bank accounts. Since there are literally not enough jobs, I ask, what are the unemployed supposed to do without some help from the government?

    The only solution, the only way for our nation to recoup all the money that is being siphoned off, is through taxation

    Obimbo has stated that this issue wasn’t worth his time but, here he is again attacking the messenger who made this little punk produce. The embarrassment of being forced to do what he should have done prior to his candidacy has so severely hurt his ego, he can’t stop attacking. Obimbo has called out the dogs to attack Trump. In doing so, he shows America just what his simple-ass is all about. Being forced to adhere to Constitutional requirements for holding the office of president are beneath this clown, and every time he appears in public attacking Trump, he reenforces that fact! Keep it up Obimbo, the hole is getting deeper!

    None of the above. What gave it away was the choice of the video clip to represent Obie’s birth…..think a little more on that……

    wow…from now on it think i should add the tag line “i am making fun of the lack of intelligence.” it would make it easier for you clowns to understand and would save me the trouble of having to explain it.

    your obvious reference to saying the ‘supposed video’ of his live birth was that he was born in africa. i got that, but to add a little fun (for me and other people smart enough to get it) i added…

    “what gave it away that it was only a supposed video of his birth. the fact the it was cartoon or because there was no angles with trumpets on top of unicorns with rainbows and glitter in the background?”

    implying that you were stupid enough to believe what you saw in cartoons and adding the aspect that people on your side (the wrong side) think that people who support obama actually believe him to be the messiah.
    see how that works?

    Nope. Never was. How many times can one man be wrong in a single morning? You’re moving the bar at warp speed, Val. Conservatives by definition uphold INDIVIDUAL liberty. The Constitution is a Conservative creation as is our nation’s original founding. Slavery was never condoned by Conservatives or our founders, and is why the Constitution never authorizes ownership of another human being. Can you say, “ALL men are created equal?” The federal government, however, went right on protecting an unconstitutional right to own slaves, just as it goes right on today protecting unconstitutional confiscation of property and businesses…………………….LIBERAL style. Sorry, Val…………I don’t mean to offend. P>

    are you mental? The south used the excuse of states rights as a reason for having slavery, who does that sound like? liberals who believe in the use of a federal government to enforce god given rights or conservatives who believe we should allow states to do as they will. Southern racists left the democratic party as soon as nixon started talking about how the issue of civil rights should be left up to the states like a classic conservative conartist. Now your party got a ton of racists, congratulations.

    The common man is not at fault that there are literally not enough jobs that pay a fair wage. Those jobs were supposed to appear after the Bush tax cuts had a chance to trickle down through the system but instead of those tax savings being reinvested in our economy, and creating new jobs, they were reinvested in the Chinese economy and parked in offshore bank accounts. Since there are literally not enough jobs, I ask, what are the unemployed supposed to do without some help from the government?

    The only solution, the only way for our nation to recoup all the money that is being siphoned off, is through taxation

    Who has the authority to decide what someone else should earn…………..what’s a “fair” wage? Never in human history has any collection of people ever been taxed into prosperity. But there is a 100% history of people being taxed into poverty and depression.

    As in your aversion to reading the Constitution, don’t read any history of US economics throughout the Bush administration because it’ll show just the opposite of your false assertions. It’ll show that the tax CUTS reduced unemployment and raised our GDP while reducing the deficit despite our economic damage by Muslims on 9/11 and funding wars in the Middle East. The fact is that every time the US has had tax CUTS, more money in the private sector created need for more jobs and caused more money to flow into the treasury from the increase in economic activity…………………..just as it did almost instantly when the tax cuts were passed.

    Your “thinkers” in the Demon Party know this full well, Val. They don’t WANT low unemployment or more funding for government. They simply don’t want the public to have our own money……………..it makes us far too free and independent for Liberals to tolerate.

    How presidential- to mock a private citizen. He should have left the comedy to paid comedians but the shallow person in him just couldn’t resist getting his own personal digs.

    Trying to impress a room full of journalist, by belittling someone, he lowered the already low bar of journalism and certainly has taken the presidency to another low- something that he at least has been very successful in doing.

    I don’t care what you say about Trump or even if you have an opinion at all, he did not mock the President he was asking for a copy of his long form birth certificate – something every media outlet and journalist in that room had requested and been denied at one time.

    it would have interesting to see if the tables were turned, how Obama would have handled that type of ‘joking’ to his face in a room full of people. I am sure Obama would have ‘faked’ laughed his way through it with a pained/sour/pissed off look as well, all the while planning his revenge. Such class this president- all Obama proved was that he has about as much class as Trump. Both are grandstanders.

    Self depracating? I guess so. But to contrast it with Bush’s self depricating humor, George was really laughing at himself. With Obama it was,” feel sorry for me because I’m a victim, and I will still succeed because I have this victim advantage thing going.”

    Obama, for the most part, relied on a (very nicely crafted) parody that you know he didn’t put together. He’s not capable of being self-deprecating, so he needs to have that done for him.

    The Southern Democrats left the party because the party was starting to be taken over by the Modern Liberals.

    And let’s look at what happened over time, shall we? Gee, at this time these Modern Liberals/Progressives needed more votes. So they got rid of their Progressive Eugenics thinking and decided to co-opt the Blacks in the North through a series of policies and programs designed to make them dependent.

    Under the guise of helping them, the Left worked to make the northern Blacks slaves to them. During the 50+ YEARS of this concentrated, liberal control, big parts of Black culture was destroyed.

    About all we can say about the RESULTS of the liberalism is that there is a lot of hopelessness, despair and death.

    Think about it! You can’t blame Bush, you can’t blame Republicans, but we ALL can blame the Democrats/Liberals/Progressives who have had utter control for 50 years.

The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That’s where the votes are.

    Neither of which are relevant. The analysis by a single member of an administration is as inconsequential as it gets, and in no way matches the devastation to blacks at the hands of their new slave-owners, the Democrat Party. Ghettos are still ghettos and the uneducated are still uneducated.

    The civil rights legislation was unnecessary as it is redundant to the Constitution that guarantees equal rights to all. It has been GOVERNMENT elitists that ignored the law and allowed slavery to continue, the same as it’s GOVERNMENT elitists today that strip us of our freedoms in wholesale fashion.

    It IS close to enslavement. I don’t want to water down the word “slave”, but the effects are similar.

    Also, see the article by Dr. Walter Williams called “Black Progress” at
    http://www.capitalismmagazine.com/culture/racism/4840-black-progress-through-politics.html

    An excerpt:

    “In 1940, poverty among black families was 87 percent and fell to 47 percent by 1960. Would someone tell me what anti-poverty program or civil-rights legislation accounted for this economic advance that exceeded any other 20-year interval? A significant chunk of that progress occurred through migration from rural areas in the South to big Northern cities. Between 1960 and 1980, black poverty fell roughly 17 percent and fell one percent during the ’70s. Might this have been a continuation of a trend starting much earlier, or was it a miracle of the civil-rights movement or President Johnson’s War on Poverty?”

    “Dr. Thomas Sowell’s research points out that in various skilled trades, the incomes of blacks relative to whites more than doubled between 1936 and 1959. What’s more, the rise of blacks in professional and other high-level occupations was greater during the five years preceding the Civil Rights Act of 1964 than the five years afterward.”

    “In 1940, 86 percent of black children were born inside marriage, and the illegitimacy rate among blacks was about 15 percent. Today, 31 percent of black children are born inside marriage, and the illegitimacy rate hovers around 70 percent.”

    “In the mid-1960s, Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan sounded the alarm for the breakdown in the black family in his book ‘The Negro Family: The Case for National Action.’ At that time, black illegitimacy was 26 percent. Moynihan said,’[A]t the heart of the deterioration of the fabric of the Negro society is the deterioration of the Negro family.’ He added,’The steady expansion of welfare programs can be taken as a measure of the steady disintegration of the Negro family structure over the past generation in the United States.’”

    “Moynihan’s observations were greeted with charges of racism and blaming the victim.”

    Basically, the liberals have destroyed the inner cities. You can’t blame Bush. You can’t blame “the last 8 years”, you can’t blame Republicans and you can’t blame Conservatism. BUT, we can blame Modern Liberalism as they have been in utter control of these areas using the full force of government.

    The correct terms for these areas are “liberal-torn” or “liberal-ravaged.”

    I don’t think they do end up hurting people, I think they need to be fixed sure they have a hell of a lot of problems. But in the end I think we as a country with the population that we have need a social safety net. Granted one that doesn’t keep people completely dependent, but we need one nonetheless. The point is, Look at the past poverty of these people and compare it to now, just a guess but I’d say it is far better than it was.

Today, 31 percent of black children are born inside marriage, and the illegitimacy rate hovers around 70 percent.” “In the mid-1960s, Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan sounded the alarm for the breakdown in the black family in his book ‘The Negro Family: The Case for National Action.’ At that time, black illegitimacy was 26 percent. Moynihan said,’[A]t the heart of the deterioration of the fabric of the Negro society is the deterioration of the Negro family.’ He added,’The steady expansion of welfare programs can be taken as a measure of the steady disintegration of the Negro family structure over the past generation in the United States.’” “Moynihan’s observations were greeted with charges of racism and blaming the victim.” Basically, the liberals have destroyed the inner cities. You can’t blame Bush. You can’t blame “the last 8 years”, you can’t blame Republicans and you can’t blame Conservatism. BUT, we can blame Modern Liberalism as they have been in utter control of these areas using the full force of government. The correct terms for these areas are “liberal-torn” or “liberal-ravaged.”

    so you would see these effects exclusively in northern “liberal” cities right?

    Are you dense? The US Constitution guarantees civil rights for every American, NOT just on a state by state basis. Are you dense? The US Constitution, therefore makes civil rights legislation redundant and your argument demented. Are you dense? That concept has been repeated several times in other posts. Are you dense?

    Of course, one MUST be dense to be a Democrat…………that’s why you’re known as “Dims” and must campaign that 10% unemployment and high gas prices are a “good” thing that we need more of. Dense positive.

    that is the absolute most idiotic thing I have ever seen written. civil rights were guarenteed on a FEDERAL level numbskull. you are asserting that mlk did all that work for nothing. There goes the idea that there were conservatives involved in the civil rights campaign.

    Who has the authority to decide what someone else should earn…………..what’s a “fair” wage? Never in human history has any collection of people ever been taxed into prosperity. But there is a 100% history of people being taxed into poverty and depression.

    Yes, the usual talking point, but is that true? Several countries are ranked ahead of the U.S. in terms of health care, and they all use some kind of, dare I say, socialist system to manage that, but retaining, in general, capitalist systems. Socialism is not the boogey-man, or Joseph Stalin in drag wearing a Hitler mustache, but an economic model that was adopted by our own forefathers to manage the task of, for example, maintaining our federally owned and run military, which, moreover, follows the socialist model advocated by our Pilgrim fathers in the Mayflower Compact.

    Ranked by whom? I’ll save you the Google time…………..the “ranking” is by none other than the “World Health Organization.”

    You DO remember them, eh Val? They’re the geniuses who banned the use of DDT without so much as a single attempt to corroborate the erroneous claims by Democrat Rachael Carson. That despicable partisan act resulted in the deaths of millions worldwide from malaria when not a single death has ever been attributed to the use of DDT. Nor has there ever been any evidence of DDT harming wildlife, vegitation, water, or soil.

    Sorry, but your Progressive “rankers” fail the test of logic, reason, and objective humanity.

    valkyrie101 said:

    Yes, Val, it is. The results of Socialism throughout world history prove it. But then, there I go with that ol’ inconvenient “results” thing. Raising taxes has NEVER solved anyone’s economic problem other than the Democrat politicians who prey on the gullible and emotional for their own self-enrichment. Freedom works……………America is proof.

    To me its kind of reminescent of how Stephen Colbert so humorously zinged it to Bush at a White House Corresondent’s Dinner some years ago. Now its the president doing the digging. Go for it Obama. Trump with his holier than thou, doing it for the publicity, politics certainly deserves it.

    Did Obama “take aim” at people who wonder why he refuses to release his academic records?

    “I’m no fan of Trump, but the conduct of Obama was abysmal. He has proven, once again, that he is temperamentally unfit to be President, he is unable to rise above his ego and his politics.”

    When referring to Ben Smith’s column at Politico, the beginning of which is, “Perhaps the most striking element, culturally speaking, of last night’s White House Correspondents Dinner was President Obama’s introductory video, crafted in the spirit of South Park and Team America World Police and theColbert Report in what you could interpret either as a ironic, subversive send-up of American patriotism or as a kind of post-ironic homage”. http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0511/Team_Obama_World_Police.html?showall#

    From William Jacobson:
    “No, this presidency does not seem an odd vehicle, even at a roast, for mocking patriotism. At least no more so than in a private fundraiser in San Francisco, or at the U.N., or in Cairo, or in Europe.”

    “Mocking patriotism is Team Obama’s vehicle of choice, and reflects an attitude which is too smug by half.”

    The Founding Fathers were “Classical Liberals”, what we would call Conservative today. They believed in individual liberty and limited, representative government. Today’s liberals are Leftists – who believe in central control and big government.

    Thanks ALZ and all you other thoughtful commenters for hanging around and injecting useful knowledge into these threads that usually deteriorate into nasty insult fests.

    I’ve seen that video in your next comment before and it is a favorite of mine.

    Republicans (or Constitutional Moderates) are the Liberals now in reality, because after 50 years of Democrat control, what Republican wants to “conserve” what’s been happening? That’s my tongue in cheek evaluaton.

    The birth certificate issue does rise from a desperation conservatives feel (using the current meaning) that a marxist has won a democratic election and so every means of defeating him should be employed. This was not a dishonest slander of this president, it was a striving for the rule of law that could rescue a republic. a striving that simply pleaded for transperancy, a desire to know for sure.

    Since a marxist has little use of the sanctity of our Constitution, it was nothing to him to withold the source information from his enemies for political gain, because the opportunity to SLANDER those who value the Constitution was too sweet an opportunity. So who requires slander more to achieve their agenda?

    As I have said before, trust but verify is how one deals with marxist regimes, and it certainly applied here. It is so boring to call it racist because those like myself had no better attitude about Bill Clinton than Obama now. If it was concievable that fraud was in play with Clinton’s eligability, it would have been the same contoversy until the people are given the hidden proof.

    Witholding the BC for political advantage has run it’s course, but a man is still in prison for the sake this democrat slander and deception. The charge of racism is just a smokescreen.

    Well then, why did Washington set up the First Bank, a federally owned bank? Federal ownership, isn’t that socialism? The feds own and run the military in a socialist manner as well. Socialism is merely a tool, not a magic beast.

    Obama was masterful in his execution of the parody. Those who find it distasteful should remember at one of his correspondence dinners Bush was “looking for W.M.D. under the rug in the Oval Office” while men were still fighting and dying in his war of choice, Iraq. Bush’s version of comedy….not funny. And Bush’s pokes at the MSM took the form of his carrying around a copy of the Bernie Goldburg book “Bias.”
