Donald Trump's Secret Wish.

Donald Trump has been in the public's view his whole life. We have all seen the ups and downs of his life play out in the public eye from day one. The public has seen the start of his career, the building of his empire and his rise to fame and fortune over the years.

As with all billionaires, you develop an attitude over the years that always includes narcissism, and if your inclination is to feed that beast, it is sure to best you in the end. Billionaire narcissists tend to keep a low profile generally but as their close friends and relatives will tell you, many if not most, are not so warm and fuzzy behind closed doors... being quite eccentric at heart.

Donald has fed his narcissism for decades and this brings up a particular problem for him, the same old has now become old. The thrill of being the 'it' guy, the center of attraction has faded. Donald now has to elbow his way through the other billionaires just to be noticed. At the country club he is not special anymore, he is just one of the many. His beast hungers... his ego needs sustenance.

He caught a break with his TV show, and that calmed his ego beast for some years, but alas, this too has passed. 

Donald has the foresight needed as a businessman to understand the new opportunity when it presents itself, hence his presidential bid. Donald has to acquire something the other billionaires don't have, and the distinction of being addressed as 'Mr. President' by everyone, including the other billionaires is the crowning achievement. This will feed his narcissistic beast for a long time... maybe even forever, he hopes.

Does Donald care that he will have to actually do the job now and again? Well, he has a solution for that, he will simply delegate the groundwork to his staff and simply make an appearance when the work is done,  like all good bosses do. It's that simple.

This approach of delegating most if not all the jobs to surrogates is different from other Presidents in that the others actually went in themselves and was part of the whole process. Donald does not have the time and patience for that.  Donald can't be sympathetic, empathic and dedicated to solutions that serve others, because Donald's upbringing did not allow him the space to develop this mindset. 

He simply can't feel what he needs to feel, as poor people and poor nations do.  He has always been on the other side of the fence... being the vulture, taking advantage, cannibalizing and profiteering from these poor people, companies and nations. His confession of using the system to file bankruptcies in the past, thereby wreaking havoc on smaller companies and thousands of their workers bears this out.

For him as the leader of a nation to start developing feelings of sympathy and empathy so late in his life and in just a few months after being elected to the office, is something not even he can do. It takes years to understand and develop sympathy and empathy, quick and empty words are not enough. Donald is not interested in being a community organizer, he never was and never will be, it is beneath his status, as a billionaire.

Donald's only wish, is not to hold office, but really to acquire the title, so he can prove himself above the growing mountain of other billionaires, as the thrill of everything has already worn off and is now boring to a long in the tooth billionaire. The other billionaires being made to unwillingly address him as 'Mr. President' is the only thing that will stroke his narcissism one more time... for the Don...

Every Body Needs An Asshole, Trump Is Doing The Honors For The GOP.

The Joke... The parts of the body were fighting among themselves over who should be the boss. The brain said it should be the boss because it does all the thinking, the mouth said it should be the boss because it nourishes the body by eating, the hands said they should be, because they do all the work, and so it went on all day with each body part saying why they should be the boss.

The asshole said nothing... it just shut up and shut down, doing none of its work. Two days passed and things got a little uncomfortable. Four days passed and everyone felt quite bloated and were finding it much harder to function; stuff was piling up. By the seventh day the body parts were all screaming to get some relief, all the 'garbage' had piled up and it stunk so bad the body was ready to pass out. Then the asshole spoke up... he was unanimously elected to be the boss.

The Reality... Donald Trump is right now fulfilling that job of being the asshole in the 2016 Presidential elections. He is spewing all the crap that the Republican party and the GOP base wants to hear but all their candidates are too scared to say. The candidates are all willing to say crazy things but only one crazy can drive the Clown Bus at a time... so they won't all look crazy. By letting out all their little 'nuances' and secret dog whistling calls, Trump is forcing everyone to put up or shut up.

The problem the Republican candidates face is that they have nothing to put up as Trump has cornered the market in the insanity area. The inmates are indeed running the ward. He has taken all the nice soundbites that the Republican base has swooned over in past elections, and he is spewing all that garbage, which we have heard over and over for all these years and he has left none for the others to spew.

We have heard other assholes present themselves in the past, Christine O'donnell had to say that she was not a witch... the jury is still out on that, Ron Paul said women can stick some aspirin between their legs if they needed, Romney's Veep Candidate Paul Ryan had to distance himself from his buddy Todd Akin, when they revealed that they considered some types of rapes to be ligitimate... 'Paul Ryan says that he personally believes that rape is just another “method of conception” and not an excuse to allow abortions'... and don't get me started about Sarah Palin!!

Donald Trump has now spewed all the good stuff and we see the Republican hopefuls being left in the dust, quite rapidly I might add. This has awoken the GOP base and the other candidates are scrambling for anything they could now say to make themselves appear valid, sane, smart and compassionate... somethings they have never been known for.

The Donald has republican candidates trying to separate themselves from him and the statements which they have all used in the past, by attempting to tell the truth... enter Ted Cruz. 

Senator (Canadian) Ted Cruz is now proudly representing himself to be a Cuban, (ok he is now a Canadian Cuban...American) and says that he will bring Cuban festivities like pig roasts to the White House if elected. His latest brush with truth telling is to stab his Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in the back by admitting that McConnell is a liar, something the rest of the world knew all along.

Rick Santorum, famous for his 'man on dog' and other gay bashing comments over the years,  now admits to the world via a Rachel Maddow interview, that he does not know anything about LGBT people and if they are born that way. This is something he should at least spend some time thinking about since his decisions on the subject as President, would affect millions of Americans.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry, while under indictment and facing a felony charge, has tried to wear glasses in a blatant attempt to secede from his deserved reputation of being a blockhead...ooops. This act of distraction has not escaped the watchful and trained eye of the Donald as he has had plenty practice weeding out the goats from the sheep on 'The Apprentice.' The Donald recently sold him down the river for the scam he is trying to pull...of trying to look smart. 

I could run down the list of the other 200 or so republican candidates running for the 2016 Presidential elections, but I'll leave that for another time.

Trump is waving the same boring clueless 'build the bridge' flag as those before him and none of them or their base even realize that Mexicans know how to do many things... like picking, gardening, washing dishes, babysitting... and digging tunnels under walls!!... remember El Chapo? It is stupid to think there are no shovels in Mexico!

Regarding that assinine wall idea... there have been as many or more people coming into America through the airports for decades and simply overstaying their visas. President Reagan gave an amnesty and republicans hate him for this. There are also many who drive across from Canada, so to think that the Mexicans are the biggest immigration concern, simply shows the more racist aspect of republican logic... or lack thereof.

So hopefully, the asshole wins the Republican nomination!

I can't wait to see the debates!!

Republicans, Guns, Fear Mongering, Gun Target Rhetoric, The Gullible. Now Put Them All Together.

One Crazed Gunman...many shot, many wounded...many Dead...
Sarah Palin's Camp is Frantically Back-peddling...The Huff reports... Shortly after news broke that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) had been shot at a congressional event in her district, observers began noting that she had, during the campaign,literally been Sarah Palin's target...to which they reply for those who are really gullible...
"We never ever, ever intended it to be gun sights," she said in an interview with talk radio host Tammy Bruce Saturday. "It was simply crosshairs like you'd see on maps." Bruce suggested that they could, in fact, be seen as "surveyor's symbols." Mansour added that "it never occurred to us that anybody would consider it violent" and called any attempts to politicize the Arizona tragedy "repulsive."


Yeah right..."Surveyor's Symbols"....What the Fuck, they are no "Surveyors"....
They say..." It never occurred to us"...who is stupid enough to believe that? That is the only intelligent reason for using that Tactic...
Who can forget Sarah's famous "Commonsense Conservatives & lovers of America: 'Don't Retreat, Instead - RELOAD!' ??


Others who are more cautious in their opinions than I, Howard Fineman in this instance writes...Now comes Tucson. The deaths there are not about politics, ideology or party. From what we know, Jared Loughman's acts were those of a madman divorced from reality, let alone from public debate.


Many who have since commented have come under attacks including Sheriff Clarence Dupnik who said this..."When you look at unbalanced people, how they respond to the vitriol that comes out of certain mouths about tearing down the government," said Dupnik at a press conference Saturday. "The anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on in this country is getting to be outrageous. And unfortunately, Arizona I think has become sort of the capital. We have become the mecca for prejudice and bigotry."


These "attacks" and criticisms come from the usual suspects... one even calling for his resignation. Apparently it's business as usual for this group of Haters...but then, we have not seen them do much in the past, to dispel any suspicions of fear-mongering by them...in fact quite the contrary.


I do not expect many surprises from here on out...but time will tell.
My sincerest sympathies to the victims and their families, I am truly sorry that this has happened, but please take Heart, this Universe has many Good things in store for us in this life...and the next...so be strong and you will endure. We did not come to this World with anything...neither will we leave with anything...anything Material that is...Read my Book, you will understand.

2010- Fox's Worst Year Of Shock and Awe on America

The year 2010 has been a Political Roller Coaster ride for America and indeed the Globe. We have many things to be thankful for but we can not say goodbye to the past year without keeping with the Name and Purpose of this Blog... and Book of the same name... and looking back, at the Shock and Awe we faced and leave behind...hopefully.


One cannot help but reflect on the single Entity in the Media Industry that has been the source or outlet for most of the Lies, Deceptions and Fear Mongering that was seen in 2010... Fox News.
Many of us in the Tri-State remembered when Fox and Parent Company News Corp. held us Hostage to their demands for more money to view their programs, by demanding our Cable Carriers pay them more money.


One does not have to look far to find more of their Shenanigans, and this wonderful offering by Media Matters in littered with details.
We have many shameful whoppers given to us by Fox's own,  Glenn Beck.
Another bringer of lies and Deception was none other than Fox's new Poster Child... Sarah Palin.


We cannot forget the Muslim scare Fox tried to spin on us, even though one of their Large Shareholders is a Muslim Prince!
It is no secret that Fox is not "Fair and Balanced" as they say and are squarely set on the Republican Party's scheme of Sabotaging the Country with the hope of getting the GOP back into the White House in 2012.


It was no surprise when a renowned University released their study that clearly showed that the Audience of Fox programming is clearly "Dumbed Down" and have little awareness as to what is Fact from Fiction, largely because of what Half Truths and sometimes blatant lies they are fed by Fox.


With the New Year upon us, is it too much to ask, for Fox to be the Leader of the News industry by Furnishing us with Truthful Reporting and having some Journalistic Pride and indeed... Prejudice of the Highest order in carrying out these duties, by ensuring that they report the Truth without twisting it to suit their warped sense of Reality?
We shall see... May you all have a Happy New Year.

Obama Palin Limbaugh Bush Family Picnic?

Ancestry.com does it again. They hit the political map in my opinion in 2007, when they revealed that Reverand Al Sharpton may be related to the late Segregationist Senator Strom Thurmond. I think they have truly broken the mold this time, with news that President  Barack Obama and Sarah Palin are cousins! They are 10th cousins through an ancestor by the name...John Smith.

The Huffington Post reports The President has also been pegged as being a 10th cousin once removed to the guy who has made no bones about wanting the President to fail in his attempt to put America on the path to recovery...Rush Limbaugh! They are related through a mutual ancestor, Richmond Terrell. President George W. Bush is also now revealed to be connected to Sarah Palin and President Obama, being ther 11th cousin.

It is also reported that Sarah Palin happens to be related to well known conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. They are all cousins through John Lathrop, a Church minister who came from England.

In 2009 it was revealed by Ancestry.com that President Obama was related to Warren Buffett, who is his 7th cousin three times removed, and also is related to Brad Pitt who is his 9th cousin. President Obama is also related to Former Vice President Dick Cheney through Mareen Duvall, a 17th century immigrant from France, reports The Chicago Sun Times.

AZCentral.com reports ..."The ties run through Obama's White, Kansas-born mother's side of the family. Palin's tie to Obama is through early Massachusetts settler John Smith, a Protestant pastor in the 1670s. Smith's wife was the sister of one of the first governors of the Plymouth Bay colony, Thomas Hinckley. Hinckley's father, Samuel, is the familial link between Obama and Bush. Obama's and Limbaugh's common ancestor is Richmond Terrell, who settled in Virginia around 1656 and acquired a large amount of land."
