This Republican nitwit also said he would that hw would “fire” anyone in the company who does anything because of global warming.
Watch the rodeo clown below… (well, that’s what he said he is, a rodeo clown!)
Year: 2013
During Hurricane Sandy, President Obama and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie joined forces and did what was right for the victims of the hurricane. They did what they were both elected to do, they did what the people wanted. And it was this coming together of the Democratic President and the Republican Governor that caused Christie to see his poll numbers rise among New Jersey Democrats and paved the way for his likely re-election in the upcoming governor’s election, and possible a 2016 run for President.
For his part, the President also benefited from the newly found political relationship as his poll numbers rose right before the November 2012 election, allowing him to defeat Mitt Romney and gave him the opportunity to serve out his second term.
Many in the Republican party blamed Christie for the President’s 2012 win.
But the new found political allies have now gone back to their respective corners as Christie came out on Tuesday and endorsed right winged nut Steve Lonegan to represent New Jersey in the United States Senate. Mr. Lonegan has made questionable comments about President Obama, ObamaCare and immigration, Planned Parenthood among others. He was also the New Jersey state director for Americans for Prosperity, the Koch brothers-aligned group. In his endorsement on Tuesday, Christie said Lonegan was just what New Jersey needed in the Senate.
Obama on the other hand endorsed New Jersey Democrat Cory Booker. In his endorsement, the President said “Cory Booker has dedicated his life to the work of building hope and opportunity in communities where too little of either existed. Whether as a college student working in East Palo Alto or as mayor of New Jersey’s largest city, Cory has time and again taken on tough challenges, fought for the middle class and those working to join it, and forged coalitions that create progress – and that’s the spirit he’ll carry with him to Washington.”
Looking at these two endorsement, it is clear to see that Christie’s endorsement was purely political. The Governor it seems, is trying to win back the hearts and minds of those Republicans in New Jersey and nationwide, who still blames him for Obama’s win. The Latino American Democratic Association of Bergen County has also picked up on Christie’s blatant political move. The group’s president Jorge Nunez, said in a statement, ““We need to call this endorsement for what it is, an endorsement of radical-right-wing extremism and anti-Latino sentiment.”
And Christie’s Democratic challenger for Governor Barbara Buono said through a spokesman, “Just like tea party extremist Steve Lonegan, Governor Christie is anti-choice, anti-Planned Parenthood, anti-marriage equality, and anti-commonsense legislation to reduce gun violence. Their unabashedly conservative views are completely out-of-touch with most New Jerseyans.”
Obama’s endorsement was expected all along. Cory Booker has been a staunch advocate for the President and his policies, so Obama’s endorsement was an easy or obvious conclusion.
So who will win? Will New Jersey see through Christie’s political moves and reward his challenger Barbara Buono? Or will New Jerseyans be blinded by Christie’s love the president today, endorse his adversary tomorrow strategy?
We will all find out on November 5th, 2013!
The followers of Dr. Phil’s Twitter account had some rather harsh words for the Talk Show host. Seems Mr. Phil, or someone with access to his Twitter account, tweeted out this question to his 1.2 million followers:
The hashtag #teensaccused indicates that Dr. Phil will be doing a future show on the topic and was trying to solicit opinions from the public. But the response the show got from their followers caused Dr. Phil to delete the tweet and issue an apology.
Here’s some of the responses:
– @DrPhil The answer is No, Never you jackass. And then you kick whoever asked you in the throat. #teensaccused
– Are you “asking for a friend”? RT @DrPhil: If a girl is drunk, is it OK to have sex with her? Reply yes or no to @drphil #teensaccused
– Dr Oz was saving lives today and Dr. Phil is trying to hook up with drunk girls where is @oprah she needs to have an emergency team meeting
Here’s part of the apology Dr. Phil issued today:
“This Tweet was intended to evoke discussion leading into a very serious show topic based upon a recent news story, hence the #teensaccused label. It was a poll question, not a statement or a joke. As he has maintained over many years, Dr. Phil believes that the position of those incapacitated in any fashion; be it drugs, alcohol, age or mental illness can not and do not have the capacity to give their consent to anything, especially sex, which could have life changing repercussions. This was a research post in preparation for a show, not a personal post and Dr. Phil deleted it the second he saw it. It was clearly ill-advised. We sincerely apologize that it suggested anything other than what was intended, data gathering. As you can imagine, Dr. Phil is very upset that this happened.”
That last tweet says it all. Dr. Oz was at the scene of a British tourist who lost her foot when a taxi cab jumped the curb and ran over her. Oz was seen in pictures helping the tourist. With Dr. Phil asking these dumb questions, “where is Oprah” indeed?
The first full day of a dream vacation turned into midtown mayhem for a British tourist Tuesday when a cabbie who had been arguing with a bicyclist lost control of the taxi and mowed her down on a sidewalk — severing her left foot.
Siân Green, 23, arrived in New York Monday night with one of her best friends for a trip they had anticipated with excitement on Instagram. The next day, they bought hot dogs at Sixth Ave. and 50th St. about 11:20 a.m. in the sun-drenched city. Green and her friend, Keshia Warren, were sitting on the ledge of a fountain in a crowded plaza on the avenue.
They were chowing down on the hot dogs when the yellow cab jumped the curb at 49th St. and plowed into Green, sending her flying and springing several good Samaritans into action. Among the heroes were a food vendor, a plumber and television’s Dr. Oz.
David Justino, a plumber who had been working in the area, stripped off his Carhartt tool belt and used it as a tourniquet. His quick thinking may have saved Green’s life.
“The real hero of the day is plumber Dave, just an average Joe, an average Dave, just walking along the street, but he saved her life,” said Dr. Mehmet Oz, whose T-shirt and jeans were spattered with blood. “It’s very smart thinking. A simple thing like a union plumber’s belt can save your life.”
Justino said he was awed by the composure of the victim, calling her “a strong girl, a brave girl.”
“Her left leg was severed off, the other was mangled,” he said. “She was conscious the whole time, the poor thing. I wished she would have passed out.”
Green’s severed, sandal-clad foot was recovered at the scene and doctors at Bellevue Hospital tried in vain to reattach it. At least two other people were also being treated at area hospitals for less serious injuries.

GOP Strategist Said Ted Cruz is Lying
Former John McCain campaign aide Nicolle Wallace told Morning Joe guest host Donny Deutsch that Ted Cruz was being “intellectually dishonest” in his mission to shut down the government in order to defund Obamacare, a strategy she felt was tantamount to lying to his supporters at the cost of the GOP’s national ambitions.
“I watch Ted Cruz up there and I say, ‘Is he not getting the memo from Christie as far as what’s getting you elected going forward?’” Deutsch said. “This ‘party of no,’ this anger, ‘I’m strong, you’re a chicken, I’m strong, you’re a chicken’—who is that talking to? It’s so tone deaf. Party of no, let’s kill Obamacare—versus, you watch what [Chris] Christie’s doing: time after time, decision after decision, moderate, moderate, moderate. Nicolle, am I missing something?”
“The problem with what Cruz is doing is it’s intellectual dishonest,” Wallace said. “[Cruz] was also asked at that event, ‘Why don’t we impeach President Obama?’ And he said, ‘Because we don’t have the votes.’ The true answer, the intellectually honest answer: ‘Because he’s not committed an impeachable offense.’ Ted Cruz is doing a whole lot of fearmongering and lying to the voters. He’s presenting an untruthful case.”
DUNDEE, Mich. — A 3-year-old boy in a small Michigan town was killed over the weekend when he accidentally shot himself in the head with a gun he found on the closet floor of his home.
The shooting death will undoubtedly renew the debate about gun safety, particularly after the boy’s father took to Facebook calling for it.
The incident took place Sunday at a home in Dundee, near the Ohio border.
Police said Damon Holbrook discovered the gun, which belonged to a family friend.
The list of unanswered questions for Sunday’s MTV VMAs is growing. Will Lady Gaga’s Jeff Koons’ references be lost amid the nudity? How many dancers can Miley Cryus get to twerk at once? How will Kanye West attempt to offend someone?
Here’s one to add to the list: Will Justin Timberlake reunite with the boy band that made him famous, ‘NSync?
Reports out of New York — namely the New York Post — are indicating that Timberlake will indeed appear with his former bandmates. If true, the sudden reunion wouldn’t be entirely out of place at the VMAs, as Timberlake is set to receive the retrospective Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.
Police say three bored teens killed an Australian man attending school in the U.S. for “the fun of it.”
Authorities prepared to charge the teens Tuesday with first-degree murder, while family and friends on two continents mourned 22-year-old Christopher Lane.
Lane was visiting the town where his girlfriend and her family live. He passed a home where the boys were staying, and that apparently led to him being gunned down at random, Police Chief Danny Ford said.
A 17-year-old in the group has given a detailed confession to police.
“They saw Christopher go by, and one of them said: ‘There’s our target,“’ Ford said. “The boy who has talked to us said, ‘We were bored and didn’t have anything to do, so we decided to kill somebody.“’
He said they followed Lane, a student from Melbourne attending college on a baseball scholarship, in a car and shot him in the back before driving off.
Autopsy results on Lane were pending.
Ford told the television station KOCO in Oklahoma City that one of the teens said they shot Lane for “the fun of it.”
Police said witnesses rushed to help Lane after hearing a shot Friday and seeing him stagger and collapse.
“He was face down on the ground, and he was shot in the back with a .22 revolver,” Richard Rhodes told Australian broadcasters. “I had another lady stop, and we tried CPR on him. And he passed away right here.”
I don’t get it. Excuse my frankness, but President Obama was born in America and the dumb nutjobs in the Republican party to this day cannot acknowledge his citizenship. They even proudly formed a movement called the Birthers and question everything from Obama’s birthplace to his education level to his religion.
And now Ted Cruz, a man born in Calgary Canada. Born in another country. And this man is being pushed by these same nutbags to run for President of the United States!
Their logic makes absolutely no sense. They harp on the fact that Cruz’s mother is an American citizen so that makes Cruz – although he was physically born in another country – his mother’s American citizenship makes him an American too. And they quickly quote the Constitution’s “natural” birth clause to justify their ignorance. But if this argument works for Cruz, then why oh why wouldn’t the same be true for Obama?
According to Donald Trump and the Birthers, Obama was born in Kenya. If that is the case, and we know it’s not because the president has been forced by the nonsense to release his birth certificate on more than one occasion, but let’s play their dumb game for a second and say that Obama was in fact born in Kenya. His mother – like Cruz’s mother – was an American citizen! So shouldn’t that make our fictional Kenyan birth Obama an American?
The dumbness coming out of the Republican party these days is palpable!
But look away ladies and gentlemen. Don’t pay any attention to the obvious hate mongers. Even Ted Cruz, a favorite of the Birthers and the Tea party groupies is calling his Canadian birth a non issue.
“Because I was a U.S. citizen at birth, because I left Calgary when I was 4 and have lived my entire life since then in the U.S., and because I have never taken affirmative steps to claim Canadian citizenship, I assumed that was the end of the matter,” Cruz said.
Well I guess that settles it. Cruz has spoken. His Canadian birth means he is an American and the President’s American birth means he is a Kenyan.
The Dallas Morning News wrote in a story posted late Sunday night that Cruz likely remains a Canadian citizen, by virtue of being born there to an American mother. Having never renounced that citizenship, Cruz was technically a Canadian and an American citizen, according to legal experts.
Cruz said his mother told him that he could claim his citizenship if he ever wanted to, but that he never pursued it and thought the matter was settled.
Legal experts say that Cruz is a Canadian citizen regardless of whether he asked for it or not.

A Letter To My Next Girlfriend
Dear Someone,
I use someone because I probably don’t know your name at this point in my life.
Take no offense; Don’t be angry and come at me with a knife!
So…yeah you and me huh? That’s pretty sweet right?
Dam I’m four lines in and I already came down with writers block
That’s nuts because I usually can always seem to talk
Since I always talk a big game
Say I have no shame
Don’t care if you use “I dare you” with my name
But when I talk to someone I like
I clam up air tight
That’s how you know I ain’t feeling right (in a good way)
Have no fear though that shyness will easily thaw
It’ll give way to thing’s that’ll make you laugh or go “awww”
So what’s this letter about you ask, as do I in all honesty
Well keep reading and then you’ll see
It’s about me as the next paragraph will show
It’s also about you, I just wanted you to know
I don’t know what you’ll know about me at this stage
Probably some good things, hopefully nothing that’ll put you in a rage
I’m very open about myself though, I have nothing to hide
There’s no “I’ll tell you another time” or any story I’ll push aside
I wonder if you’ll know my favorite color is orange but I love to wear black
Or that I love my Lakers, basketball, and miss hearing “T-Mac to the rack!”
Maybe you’ll know I actually have a decent fashion sense (#HighFashion)
Or that I never shy away from giving my $.02
What about you? There are so many questions I can sit here and ask
Writing them all down though………dam that’d be quite a task
Have we been friends? Best friends? Or total strangers who just met
If we were total strangers let me say..”Finally a fish in the net!”
(Referring to that “plenty fish in the sea saying. Okay, not funny? Okay..)
Ah so many questions I could ask but it’s 1am and I’d love to sleep tonight
Instead of having my brain work in overdrive, blasting through all the red lights
Well whoever you were to me and whenever you do read this, let me just say
I’m happy you’re with me and not some other guy
I obviously like you, enjoying hanging out, and talking as well
I can’t say where this will go or how it’ll work
All I can say is to just kick back and let life run it’s course
Good night,
Justin
It’s easy to voice your ignorant and heartless words when hiding behind “ANONYMOUS”…..
Here is the letter:
