Donald Trump was so upset over David Letterman’s accusations that he canceled his May 18th appearance. Trump told the NY Post, “I was disappointed to hear the statements you made about me last night on your show that I was a ‘racist,’ in actuality, nothing could be further from the truth and there is nobody who is less of a racist than Donald Trump.”

Trump’s right! His whole cast is black this year, how the hell could Letterman accuse him of being a racist? Sheesh.

Trump also congratulated Obama despite being roasted this past Saturday by him. He said, “I want to personally congratulate President Obama and the men and women of the Armed Forces for a job well done…I am so proud to see Americans standing shoulder to shoulder, waving the American flag in celebration of this great victory. We should spend the next several days not debating party politics, but in remembrance of those who lost their lives on 9/11 and those currently fighting for our freedom. God Bless America!”

In case you missed the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, here are some highlights…it’s insane that Obama could get up on stage and give a roast the same exact day he ordered the Osama Bin Laden attack.

So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio.

    LOL @ LAC. Nads, yes, it is amazing that Obama can do the press dinner, coming off very suave, while knowing there is the chance of Osama being captured or killed within days–in my opinion, this is a true testament to his abilities as an able leader. Although, if you watch the video with his presentation (which was great), I think you can tell from Michelle’s face that something serious is going on. At first I thought it might be the Alabama disaster thing, but in retrospect, maybe it was the Osama thing.

    Anyhoo, here’s a picture of Obama and his team watching the operation in progress. You can tell from everyone’s faces how tense and concerned they are. Hillary even has her hand over her mouth as if seeing something awful happen and Prez O’s face indicates the severity of his duties.

    Sure, Donald. You’re not a racist, and Patti Stanger’s an actress.

    Nads, I was thinking something similar. I guess Obama was surveying the tornado devastation down South and actually okayed the raid while he was there. I guess you have to be a major multitasker when you’re the leader of the free world.

    Obama’s To Do List:

    Buy milk.
    Check kids’ homework.
    Morning CIA briefing.
    Get NSA to turn off Andy Cohen’s cable. For good.
    Meet with Saudi oil dude.
    Look at wrecked double-wides in Alabama.
    Sic SEAL team six on Bin Laden.
    Write a few funnies for the Correspondent’s Dinner.
    Beat my high score on Angry Birds.

    More than a few wrecked double-wides in Alabama. More than a few people dead.

    Michelle did look worried.
    He was up there cracking jokes and she was looking so scared/concerned; I was like what is her problem today?
    And even though I’m not tickled pink about Osama being dead (I’d rather they just brought him in alive), I’m happy that things worked out the way that Obama needed them to.

    As for Donald, I don’t have anything to say to that silly man. He’s just mad and looking for someone to take it out on.

    Sure, Trump was sued by the feds (Department of Justice) in the 70′s for not allowing Black people to move into his rental units, but that doesn’t make him a racist, does it? No, just exclusive.
    (I posted the link on the Letterman Calls Trump Racist post)

    Trump wasn’t so gracious the day after the Correspondent’s Dinner when he went on Fox and Friends and said he thought the whole dinner was “inappropriate” because Americans were starving and worrying about gas prices while everyone was sitting around and laughing. He then called Seth Meyers a “stutterer” with poor delivery.
    The funniest part is Trump doesn’t really people were laughing at him because he is a joke. He said he was the “sole focus” because he was leading in the poll numbers. HA!

    @chaosbutterfly: I’m not entirely comfortable with feeling good about another’s death, but I’ll be honest … I’m GLAD he wasn’t taken into custody. The thought of him sitting in jail for 8-10 years while Democrats and Republicans squabble over where, when, and how to put him on trial makes me actually sick to my stomach. This way, he’s just gone, without delay and without dragging the U.S. through another disgusting spectacle.

    Trump looked awful pissed off during that dinner. If he really does want to get into politics, he needs to develop a thicker skin.

    @Chaosbutterfly: I agree with you. I think his death is going to problematic in future political scenarios. I would have preferred The Hague to handle Osama bin Laden’s trial.

    BTW, my two favorite Seth jokes were about Obama’s hair eventually going so white that the Tea Party would endorse it as a candidate and about Trump thinking “The Blacks” love him, when “The Blacks” are a white family he knows personally. Or whatever. Good stuff.

    @thiajok, I liked those jokes, too. I made a similar one on an earlier post, wondering if perhaps Trump was referring to Rebecca Black and her parents. LOL

    (I’m just wondering why they dumped Osama’s body in the ocean?)
    Did one of the military personnel deliver Bin Laden’s bulletproof vest to the White House with a croaker wrapped inside?
    Obama: What the hell is this?
    Aide: It’s a Sicilian message. It means Osama sleeps with the fishes.

    Too soon?

    I also loved the one about how theObama of 2011 would really love meeting the idealistic Obama of 2008. It looked like the President appreciated that one, too. He does have a great sense of humor–I can’t say that enough. I admire him for so many reasons, even if I don’t always agree with his policy or, rather, compromises of policy. But it’s like I tell my friends–he’s the adult in D.C. now–everyone else is playing childish games while he tries to stay calm.

    Let me share a true story: I was in a line at a wedding reception buffet on November 1, 2008. The woman ahead of me in line, who I didn’t know from Adam, turned to me (possibly assuming since I’m white and Southern that I would concur with her) and said, “I’m so worried about the upcoming election! The fate of future generations is riding on this, isn’t it?”

    “Oh, I absolutely agree!” I agreed.

    Then she said, “That’s why I watch Fox News obsessively. My husband says I’m too wrapped up in this election.”

    “Oh, me, too,” I said, “and that’s why I can’t stop watching MSNBC!”

    She turned back away from me and never said another word to me, though the buffet line was very, very long.

    Does you guys think Trump is a real candidate? In his own mind? I kind of doubt it, but when you style your hair like that on purpose, who knows what’s going on inside your brain pan? I think this is just another means of self-promotion.

    I think it’s mostly for ratings and maybe a bit for tweaking the noses of several prominent people, Republicans and Democrats both.

    NWMTV, I agree. Trump just wants to keep himself in the news. If he does run, he’ll be undermining the entire political process. I always thought one had to hold a smaller office (mayor, governor, senator) before running for the highest office in the land?

    Trump should go back to licensing his name to whoevers wants to build a tacky tower. He doesn’t even own the Trump Soho building he filmed at last week. He was just paid a fee to allow his name to be stamped across it like so many other architectural monstrosities us New Yorkers are forced to look at on a daily basis. Oh, and he was once in debt to the tune of $900 million!! Ugh..methinks Trumps should focus on his own budget and not that of a nation.

    But maybe this publicity stunt is a bit more dignified than his calling Rosie O’Donnell a fat pig on every channel and newstation. Slightly..

    The man is definitely an attention whore. He’s the male version of Sarah Palin, only with more interesting hair.

    @LAC – LOL!!
    I can’t believe some of the lecherous comments Trump makes to the female contestants on his show. He reminds me of the paper clip office assistant in Microsoft Office, the one with the googly eyebrows. And, call me old fashioned, I prefer potential politicians who don’t say motherfucker on tv.

    Trump did look seriously pissed. As Seth Meyer zeroed in on him, I noticed that the others at that table stopped laughing at the jokes. If Melania has a brain in her head she never cracked a smile. And whoever put together the video at the beginning is brilliant.
