Associated Press ^ | April 30, 2011

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is mixing mixed comedy with some early campaigning at the White House Correspondents' Association annual dinner, focusing mainly on Donald Trump.

With Trump in attendance, Obama said the billionaire businessman has shown the acumen of a future president, from firing Gary Busey on a recent episode of "Celebrity Apprentice" to focusing so much time on conspiracy theories about Obama's birthplace.

As of today, Trump isn’t POTUS and Barry is .. he who has more important things to do than deal with the “silliness” of his birth certificate. Since then what has he done? Gone to Oprah, to a NY fundraiser and the WH Correspondents Dinner. Busy man, our Barry.

I thought 0golfer didn’t have time for the distraction of the BC issue? So he brings it up again?

"Just guessing here, but I imagine Trump won’t run as a third party candidate if we stop trying to drive him to do so.."

So many are vying to be DTDS's patient number one.

IMO, Trump’s response will tell us a lot about what his motives were with regard to all his birth certificate talk

That’s what I was thinking... Trump never smiled. It wasn’t funny, but a personal insult. Even if he doesn’t run—

GAME ON!!!

"Fair enough , my comment has to do with what is."

Did Trump look like he was really pissed off with Zero? Enough to self-finance a third-party campaign?

You’d almost think that tonight was the reason he released his latest BC? Trump stood there and took it from all sides. Some of Seth Meyer’s stuff was actually pretty funny but he couldn’t help himself from leaving lipstick marks on Barry’s butt.

Trump looked like many businessmen I have seen in a serious throw down. I don’t think he is into throwing money away on a third party route... but definitely do think he will take out all the players in tonight’s pageant.

"The president of the United States has no right to attack a patriotic and private American citizen like Donald Trump."

I wonder how Obammie would feel about Donald spending $250mil on political advertising against him. He could do this in support of anyone, including himself.

Trump could probably raise another $1bil EASILY via his connections.

All for "Issue Advocacy" ads. He could also use his considerable resources to inject mockery of Progressive positions into the popular entertainment media.

Hell, he could put together the investment groups to BUY MSLSD/ABC/NYT etc.

I wonder how many MSM reporters have thought about this?

Obama and the dim-media complex may rue the day they ridiculed Donald Trump.

Normally the correspondants dinner is funny but this year noone of it was. Obama was an AZZhole like always and if Seth Myers is the head writer of SNL that explains why it is so bad this season!
