Got bacon to go with all that egg on your face, Donald? President Barack Obama took shots at Donald Trump and the fallout that has come upon the businessman-turned-reality star in the wake of the “Birther Scandal” during Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington.
Donald Trump’s floating on Cloud Nine this Wednesday after “single-handedly convincing” (ie: Bullying) President Barack Obama to release a copy of his birth certificate.
Cher, on the other hand, wishes he’d just shut up.
Score One for Team Obama.
In a morning press conference Wednesday, President Barack Obama tried to put the kibosh on the so-called “Birther” melodrama by releasing a long-form copy of his illusive birth certificate. According to official documentation on file in the State of Hawaii, Obama made his big debut in Honolulu on the evening of Aug. 4, 1961. His parents are listed as is the hospital where he was delivered, but Mr. President is going to roll out of bed much earlier in the morning if he hopes to quiet the lion’s roar of Tea Party enthusiast Donald Trump. For those not in-the-know, Trump’s rampant hounding of the Commander-in-Chief about the birth certificate issue has led to his fallout with a host of fellow celebrities; Bill Cosby, Jerry Seinfeld, and Robert DeNiro to name a few.
The Donald is reserving an apology until he’s had an opportunity to examine the authenticity of the document.
Figures.

Funny how times flies when you’re in a recession! It seems like only yesterday the nation was bickering over the geographical distance between Russia and Alaska, who’s birth certificate was where, and how many newspapers and magazines Sarah Palin couldn’t rattle off in 60 seconds.
Now it’s almost time to make new political memories.
Matt Damon no longer subscribes to the audacity of hope…Or any of the other promises Barack Obama made as he hit the campaign trail in pursuit of The White House back in 2008.
