Did anyone else happen to catch Lawrence O'Donnell's performance on
"Morning Joe" yesterday?

O'Donnell reminds me a lot of Harry in terms of his politics and
ideologically. Very liberal with no tolerance for other points of
view
and of the GOP in particular. He even uses some of the same words
and
phrases that Harry likes to use when describing (attacking) anyone
with
a conservative streak.

Anyway, the subject was Trump and his financial statement release.
O'Donnell accused Trump of lying, particularly about how much money
NBC has paid him for his 14 season run of "The Apprentice".

O'Donnell had no proof of his assertion that Trump was lying. He
just
went on a half hour emotional rant about it, using air time that was
reserved for other guests and topics. It got to be a free for all at
one point with Joe Scarborough ripping O'Donnell a new asshole ...
for
being an asshole. Even the liberal Mika Brzezinski appeared to be
shell
shocked with O'Donnell's rantings as were the other panel members.

Later that evening on his own show "The Last Word" O'Donnell
apologized
profusely for his performance. He even admitted that he liked Donald
Trump and Trump had sent him a message of congratulations back when
O'Donnell returned to the show following a lengthy recovery from an
accident he was involved in.

He said that rather than sue O'Donnell for his slander on the show,
Trump had offered a bet. He said he'd bet O'Donnell's yearly pay
from
MSNBC that his claims were accurate.

O'Donnell refused, saying he's not a betting man plus ... he admitted
that he could be wrong. He had no proof. Instead he just apologized
again and apologized to the other Morning Joe guest who's time he
used
in his ranting and raving.

Making up **** and lying seems to be the liberal way to win an
argument
but I think O'Donnell realized he attacked the wrong person this
time.



I'm finding it hilarious that so many conservatives, including utter
trash like Ted Cruz, are "standing up for" and "defending" an
outrageous
demagogue like Trump.

Carry on.


Trump's appeal is that he is not a politician.



Trump's appeal is that he is a bigot and demagogue. He's one of the
birther assholes, and the birther assholes are racists.


Anyone questioning the birthplace of another is a racist.

Typical.



I guess the new rules are, "Don't question and don't ask questions. Do
as you are told and be grateful for what your government does for you."


You been reading the union handbook?
