| Donald Trump blasted President Obama for not taking up his offer to release his college records, saying the president’s failure to do so was hard evidence he wasn’t born in the U.S. “For President Obama not to accept $5 million (or much more) for his favorite charity can only mean one thing – the records are very bad," Trump wrote on his Facebook page. “Obviously he wasn’t born in this country, or, if he was, he said he wasn’t in order to receive financial aid and in order to have a clear and very easy path into a

Donald Trump's logic is faulty. Obama rejected Trump's offer because Trump did not offer Obama anything Obama has any interest in. Why would Obama care if Donald Trump gave money to some charity?

Well, Obama could have donated the $5 million to Hurricane Relief or the Red Cross to help the stricken in NY and NJ. Oh wait, those states are already blue. Never mind.

Regardless of what you may think of Trump's offer, it does indeed show that Obama has something to hide.Other candidates regularly release these kinds of records. Why would Obama block a $5 million offer to the charity of his choice to avoid releasing harmless info that it is customary to release.

Wih apologies to Shakespeare and Henry V:
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more,
Or close the wall up with our Benghazi dead!
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility,
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger:
On, on, you noble Americans,
Dishonor not your mothers; now attest
That those whom you called fathers did beget you!
Be copy now to men of leftist filth
And teach them how to war! And you, good yeomen,
Whose limbs were made in America, show us here
The mettle of your pasture. Let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not,
For there is none of you so mean and base
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot!
Follow your spirit; and upon this charge
Cry 'God for Mitt! and America!'
Vote on Tuesday to save our nation.

He learned how to use his race to get favored treatment, foreign status to get a leg up in admissions to universities, his smile wow'ed the useful idiots all his life and his grandparents, Mom and Dad (his real dad) all Communists taught him how to manipulate everyone around him...so why is it a surprise he's still a con man?

It shows that Donald is a self promoting jerk. It proves that Obama does not feed trolls. There are enough reasons to vote for Romney without this guy getting involved and claiming credit.

The fact of the matter is he sucks as a president and he is bad for the country. I want him gone and his ugly wife gone and the first lady president, Valerie Jarrett gone.

When MSNBC host Martin Bashir disappeared from his post at the helm of his eponymous 4 p.m. program, many assumed that it had something to do with the fact that the first terror attack on U.S. soil since 9/11 had occurred just hours earlier. This was backed up by the fact that his program was guest-anchored by MSNBC’s straight news purveyors and not his frequent fill in hosts Karen Finney or Joy-Ann Reid. It was, however, soon revealed that Bashir was “on assignment,” but few could have been aware of how inappropriate that assignment would be. Bashir,

Frank not only said that tax cuts would have made recovery efforts worse, but he also opined that the reaction was “greatly hyperbolic” and stated, “this isn’t the end of the world.” O’Reilly could not hide his outrage at Frank, calling him a “left-wing bomb thrower” and said he needs to “shut up until the people are buried.” Frank’s comments were so shocking, he was called out while making his

The 844-page immigration reform draft written by the Senate Gang of Eight includes more than 20 allowances for unrestricted spending for everything from a Comprehensive Immigration Reform Trust Fund to radios for state and local cops, raising concerns among fiscal conservatives that the bill is too expensive. The wording of the spending language varies in the language, but it is sized up in the oft-used phrase: "such sums as may be necessary." Two congressional advisors said on background that open-ended funding in the bill will come under attack, especially since it already includes $2 billion for

With the failure of the Democrats’ attempt to exploit the Newtown school shooting to press forward gun control measures, President Obama took to the microphones along with the relatives of Sandy Hook victims to demonize his opposition. This, of course, was his strategy all along: knowing that he did not have 60 votes in the Democrat-controlled Senate to pass his gun control legislation, he pressed forward anyway, hoping to paint Republicans as intransigent, immoral tools of the gun lobby who don’t care about dead children. After demonizing Republicans, Obama hopes, he can press Americans into voting Democrats

The 844-page immigration reform bill the bipartisan “Gang of Eight” dropped in the dead of night contains a lucrative handout that would give taxpayer-funded free cell phones to some people who live or work near the U.S. border with Mexico.

Sen. Max Baucus (D-MT) warned he sees “a huge train wreck coming down” with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, known to its critics as Obamacare. The candid comments came during a Wednesday hearing with Obama’s Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. “I´m very concerned that not enough is being done so far--very concerned," said Baucus. "Small businesses have no idea what to do, what to expect.” Baucus appeared frustrated with Sebelius’s unresponsiveness in supplying the senator with information designed to educate and assist citizens with understanding the massively complex healthcare overhaul.

The man was identified as Kenneth Curtis, NBC News reported. Meanwhile, more tests have been ordered after a second set of ricin tests on the letters sent to the White House and the Senate came back inconclusive, NBC News reports. The tests show some level of the deadly poison, but the potency is uncertain, so authorities can’t tell whether the material is harmful or not.

The person has been taken into custody by federal marshals and will be in court Wednesday afternoon. Investigators made a “clear identification” of a suspect in the bombings, according to CNN, with surveillance video. Correspondent John King, a Boston native, said authorities have a clear video image of a “dark-skinned male” placing a bag at the second bomb site outside of the Forum restaurant on Boylston Street and then leaving the area before that explosion.

Protocol: President Obama declined to send a high-level delegation to Wednesday´s funeral of Britain´s Margaret Thatcher. It´s a measure of how little he values the special relationship — and a sign of his own smallness. Back in more gracious times, vice presidents routinely attended funerals of foreign dignitaries. As such, the presence of Vice President Joe Biden — if not Obama himself — would seem fitting for as significant a U.S. ally as the late Prime Minister Thatcher, if not out of warmth of feeling, then simply to represent the U.S.´ gratitude.

Also with him was former Rep. Gabby Giffords of Arizona, wounded in an assassination attempt.

Obama, like all Americans, is standing by, waiting for answers as to who planted two bombs improvised from pressure cookers at the finish line of the storied race, and why. Three Americans were killed in Monday´s attack and more than 170 others were injured. "Anytime bombs are used to target innocent civilians, it is an act of terror," Obama said,

As we now move into the official Political Aftermath period of the Boston bombing — the period that will determine the long-term legislative fallout of the atrocity — the dynamics of privilege will undoubtedly influence the nation’s collective reaction to the attacks. That’s because privilege tends to determine: 1) which groups are — and are not — collectively denigrated or targeted for the unlawful actions of individuals; and 2) how big and politically game-changing the overall reaction ends up being.

Washington — President Barack Obama says the Senate’s opposition to a bill that would have expanded background checks for gun buyers marks a “shameful day” in Washington. He says a minority of senators decided “it wasn’t worth it” to protect the nation’s children. Obama spoke in the Rose Garden shortly after the Senate vote rejecting a bipartisan effort to expand federal background checks to more firearms buyers. (Snip) The president pinned the blame for the measures failure, though five Democrats also opposed the plan. He also said the gun lobby and its allies “willfully lied” about background check bill.

"I think we’ve got a good chance of seeing it pass if members of Congress are listening to the American people," President Obama said in an interview on NBC´s "Today Show" that aired on Tuesday. "The notion that Congress would defy the overwhelming instinct of the American people after what we saw happen in Newtown, I think, is unimaginable." Obama was then asked by Savannah Guthrie how he could expect Democrats in red states to vote on this bill when he, as a Senator, didn´t have to himself.
