Angela, Babe, we know exactly how you feel.

Thanks to Tony for the heads up.

Apparently, Cheeto Jesus had more important business than the G20 in Hamburg, Germany.  So he sent Ivanka to represent the United States of America at the summit.  Just to review – Ivanka is unelected, unvetted, unappointed, and unapproved to represent the US in ANY matter, much less the G20.  Here she is sitting among world leaders while Daddy – tweets?

Oh, and Daddy tweeted this yesterday.  I guess “fighting” only applied to one day.

Out of the blue I asked, “Have you ever read Reinhold Niebuhr?”

Obama’s tone changed. “I love him. He’s one of my favorite philosophers.”

So I asked, What do you take away from him?

“I take away,” Obama answered in a rush of words, “the compelling idea that there’s serious evil in the world, and hardship and pain. And we should be humble and modest in our belief we can eliminate those things. But we shouldn’t use that as an excuse for cynicism and inaction. I take away … the sense we have to make these efforts knowing they are hard, and not swinging from naïve idealism to bitter realism.”

This exchange is from a piece written by David Brooks back in 2007 recalling a conversation with Barack Obama.  It’s just one example of the nature of a proper President of the United States, which Obama possesses in spades.  He can talk college basketball or philosophy, your choice.  The parasite infesting our WH today?  Not so much.  Between boasting and gorging on well-done steaks, Trump sits on the toilet tweeting childish insults and lies on a daily basis.

How far we’ve fallen in such a short time.  God help us.

Props to a Facebook friend for the reminder.

Well, our national nightmare is over.  The whole Russia / Trump thing has been disproven.

Was it a pinky promise or did he swear on a stack of Bibles?

Mother: What did the sign say, Mike?

Mike: Do Not Touch

Mother: And what did you do, Mike?

Mike: I touched it.

Honey, things ain’t gonna improve if he become president. I can promise you that.

Please meet Richard Tatum, owner of Associated Marine & Industrial Staffing Inc. (AMI), which a temporary staffing company.  Richard lives in Humble, which is dangerously close to Houston.

Everybody thought AMI was very successful because Ole Richard was living pretty high on the hog.

Then the cover came off —

Tatum withheld from his employees approximately $12 million in payroll taxes from March 2008 through December 2012, but did not pay over any of this money to the IRS. Tatum also failed to pay $6 million of AMI’s required share of social security and Medicare taxes during the same quarters. Instead, he used the money for his personal benefit, including making payments on his ranch and traveling to Las Vegas, Hawaii and France. Tatum admitted that he caused a tax loss of more than $18 million.

So, Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen just had a hunch and check campaign finance records.  Sure as the nose on your face.

Right smack dab in the middle of all his stealing taxpayer money, Alfredo found:

So, if you check the Handbook and Guide to Being a Dick, it says that you should start stealing money from little children’s healthcare and grandma social security check, and step 2 is to joint Republican Party.

Tatum is going to jail for three years and then has to figure out a way to pay back all the money he stole from us.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.
