After enduring Donald Trump's barrage of insults for weeks, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry told the billionaire businessman to put up or shut up on Wednesday, challenging him to a pull-up contest.
Trump, who's currently leading polls of the 2016 Republican primary, told the Daily Mail on Wednesday that Perry lacks the "energy," the "brain power," and the "toughness" to be an effective president.
Perhaps it was that last charge that stung the most. Perry, a former Air Force captain who's worn his tough-guy image on his sleeve during a long career in politics, fired back during an appearance at the Yale Club.
"Let's get a pull-up bar out there and let's see who can do the most pull-ups," Perry said, inciting a round of laughter and applause from the audience.
Okay for the record I would not want to contribute to either man's campaign, but having said that I would be willing to pay to see this.
For one thing I am almost positive that Trump could not even begin to lift his bulk off of the ground, and if he did he would undoubtedly shit himself with the effort.
After all the man rode an escalator down to announce his intention of running for president.
Okay I have to say that I am REALLY looking forward to his first debate next week.
Though sadly it appears that currently Rick Perry is not quite making the cut.
Thank you, GOP for making politics entertaining!
ReplyDeleteDonald - hired weightlifter... Perry - himself!
ReplyDeleteHe's a poopy-head!
ReplyDeleteam NOT! - are TOO!!
hunh-UH! - unh-HUNH!!
Well I can more pull-ups than you!!!
heh heh heh
pass the popcorn, please
Nothing less than a public measuring of cocks will do. Length AND circumference.
DeleteWell, we already know the whole lot of them are big dicks....
DeleteGreat idea 6:24pm!
DeleteImagine either of THEM making it into the WH. McConnell, Boehner, Gohmert and the rest have already made asses of themselves, and the American public. These cowns are just plain stupid! Maybe they should have a DUEL? 6:24 THAT would be cringe worthy, seeing their private parts, bad enough we see the public parts.
DeleteHow very junior high of them.
DeleteAnd these clowns think they have what it takes to be leader of the free world?
The world is laughing at them! All of em!

Dear
Here is how this atrocity began: the early 20th century's "progressive movement" was caught up in a racist pseudo-science called eugenics. The core idea of eugenics was the use of birth control, abortion, and selective breeding to weed out the so-called "unfit" to create a "cleaner" human race. This horrifying idea actually inspired the Nazis in their evil determination to create a “master race,” a deranged obsession that led to the Holocaust.

One prominent leader of this racial cleansing eugenics movement was Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger. She boasted of her mission in abortion to reduce the numbers of minorities and immigrants in order to create a "cleaner,” i.e. whiter, race. She wanted to enable “the release and cultivation of the better racial elements” and “the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extirpation of defective stocks—those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization.” She was a white supremacist in her beliefs.
And she is heralded as a hero on the Left. Instead of rejecting Sanger and these hateful, racist ideals, Hillary Clinton expresses her admiration for her; President Obama asks God to “bless” Planned Parenthood. An op-ed in the New York Times calls for Sanger to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. Planned Parenthood has done its best to deceive and pretend their foundation is not unsavory, but they stand upon it. Their work strives to meet their founder's goals.

Knowing Sanger’s racist beliefs, why is anyone surprised that Planned Parenthood placed 80% of its abortion clinics in minority neighborhoods? I posted a simple graphic on my Facebook page showing the Confederate flag on one side and the Planned Parenthood logo on the other, with the question: “Which symbol killed 90,000 black babies last year?”
End Federal funding for Planned Parenthood and support life!
Our nation commits to turning the page on a tragic chapter of racism by expressing #BlackLivesMatter, so why are our tax dollars subsidizing an organization founded on racism?
America, enough is enough! Planned Parenthood receives over half a billion of our tax dollars every year. Why should they have ever received one penny? They neither need nor deserve your hard earned money that was redistributed to this ghastly organization by condoning politicians holding the purse strings.
With an Alaskan Heart,
Gov. Sarah Palin
I wonder why she couldn't say any of that last night on Bill O'Reilly's show. It is because she doesn't write her FB page and doesn't have a fucking clue?
Delete"an Alaskan heart'?! Eat my ass, Sarah Palin! You are the furthest example of anyone with 'an Alaskan heart"! Plus, you are horribly disliked by the majority of Alaskans.
DeleteWhat a friggin' joke!!!
Thanks to you, Governor Screechy, America will know that Margaret Sanger is like the Hitler of the Twentieth Century!
DeleteWhat would we do without you?
And, more importantly, when will we get the chance to find out?
Don't laugh, Gryphen, there are very plausible rumors floating around the dank subterranean RNC headquarters located in the sewer system of D.C., that this very contentious primary campaign will be settled with some form of orgiastic Roman-Greco nude wrestling match. Wont be pretty, but the fellas seem to like the idea.
DeleteAlaska called, they want their heart back! Ghastly Grizzled granny doth protest too much.
DeleteHave any Alaskans seen Todd's picture on their milk cartons? Just wondering!!!
Why can't those "consultants" simply call Sarah to tell he what "she said" on her FB so that she doesn't go live on TV and look like an idiot?
DeleteSooooo funny, 5:54! Bravo!
DeleteShe's lying, as usual:
DeleteFalse Attack on Planned Parenthood
...Cain isn’t the first to believe that birth control advocate Margaret Sanger (1879-1966) wanted to stop the birth of black babies. Just do an Internet search and see what happens. Sanger made more than her share of controversial comments. But the quote many point to as evidence that Sanger favored something akin to “genocide” of African Americans has been turned on its head.
Sanger, who was arrested several times in her efforts to bring birth control to women in the United States, set up her first clinic in Brooklyn in 1916. In the late 1930s, she sought to bring clinics to black women in the South, in an effort that was called the “Negro Project.” Sanger wrote in 1939 letters to colleague Clarence James Gamble that she believed the project needed a black physician and black minister to gain the trust of the community:
Sanger, 1939: The minister’s work is also important and he should be trained, perhaps by the Federation as to our ideals and the goal that we hope to reach. We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.
Sanger says that a minister could debunk the notion, if it arose, that the clinics aimed to “exterminate the Negro population.” She didn’t say that she wanted to “exterminate” the black population. The Margaret Sanger Papers Project at New York University says that this quote has “gone viral on the Internet,” normally out of context, and it “doesn’t reflect the fact that Sanger recognized elements within the black community might mistakenly associate the Negro Project with racist sterilization campaigns in the Jim Crow south, unless clergy and other community leaders spread the word that the Project had a humanitarian aim.”

Donald Trump Hires Former Palin Aide To Serve As His National Political Director
DeleteOn Thursday, Donald Trump announced that he was hiring Michael Glassner, a former Sarah Palin aide, to serve as his national political director. Trump issued a statement, saying:
I am pleased to welcome Michael Glassner to our national campaign leadership team. Mr. Glassner will certainly be an asset to us as we further cement our dominance in the 2016 GOP field.
The announcement came just two days after Trump suggested that, if elected, he would find a place for Sarah Palin in his cabinet.
Glassner served as a political aide to Sarah Palin during the McCain-Palin 2008 presidential run. He also served as a campaign aide for Bob Dole’s unsuccessful 1996 White House bid. In addition, Glassner served as a senior adviser to George W. Bush in Iowa, during Bush’s victorious 2000 presidential campaign.
While Glassner’s political experience may well prove to be an asset to Trump’s campaign, there is something almost poetic about Trump tapping a former Palin adviser to run his campaign. Trump’s “shoot from the hip” rhetorical style closely matches Palin’s, and both Republicans are prone to adopt extreme positions that rally the base, while alienating mainstream voters.
It is not clear whether Glassner will try to embrace Trump’s bombastic style or whether he will try to reign in the eccentric billionaire. Trump’s decision to hire from the remnants of the Sarah Palin train wreck, suggests his intent, at least, is to push forward full throttle with the Palin-esque type of campaign he is already running.

Entire post shows a lack of historical knowledge. Danger was about access to BC, not abortíon. It was at the time of the Comstock laws. Even info about BC was illegal. It was also at a time when there was no safety net, medicine wasn't advanced, more kids in large families meant all would be malnourished to the point of mental deficiençy. No such thing as marital rape recognized. A woman couldn't keep her legs closed. Sanger was a saint. Palin is a despicable, lying witch.
DeleteWhy is Sarah in Arizona if she has an Alaskan heart? And didn't she say she didn't need a title when she quit as Governor? So why is she signing her grifting email as Governor?
DeleteI LOATHE this bitch. Why would T-Rump hire a former aide of hers - does he really NOT want the job? Is there anyone in the clown car who is actually SANE?
DeleteWith an Alaskan heart - from Arizona!! What exactly is "an Alaskan heart"? Frozen?
Delete@7:04PM -- "Trump’s decision to hire from the remnants of the Sarah Palin train wreck, suggests his intent,..."
DeleteGiven the man's track record it also means that Trump has someone to point the finger at to explain his losing.
Where does Sarah Palin have warmness in her Alaska heart for crying out loud? She's the coldest human being in Alaska - in spirit, mind, kindness and love. Can you even imagine giving that boney body a hug? God forbid!!!
DeleteRemember, the majority of Alaskans do not even claim her anymore. She hides when in Alaska and no one sees her in Anchorage or Juneau.
It's embarrassing; but you knew it would happen, the Republiclowns have started the pissing match. Ricky better be careful or the petulant Trumpass won't allow him on any of his properties.
ReplyDeleteWhat is an "Alaskan heart"? and how does it differ from a...oh say a Kansas heart or Massachusetts heart or a Florida heart? Or any of those hearts from the other "little pockets of Uh-mare-a-ka" that Sarah used to yammer on and on about?
ReplyDeleteShe somehow thinks that we are "special" up here but we are just humans that happen to live in Alaska, just like people who live in Iowa. Just people, with grocery stores and cars and quick shops and gas stations and movie theaters, but Ms. Palin would have everyone believe that we a different.
DeleteI met two men from MA today and one of them said "you guys in Wasilla are all children of Sarah Palin"....I said "fuck you" (with a smile) and because he was from MA I had to remind him of the "true" story of Paul Revere, ringin' those bells and shootin' those guns and lettin' the British know that they would not come and take our weapons....also too ;-)
We laughed our asses off.
LOL!! I'm from MA we are called Massholes and I'm proud of it! We can take it as well as we give it!!
DeleteRick Perry is a little runt that tain't so smart. He better be careful of Trump - might find his ass kicked! Hope he doesn't make it on the debate stage and is completely phased out of the primary race. We won't miss him!
ReplyDeleteI'd didn't know in order to qualify to be President you had to actually pass the President's physical fitness test.
ReplyDeleteThis just gets better and better.
ReplyDeleteLeave it to mr yellowrock! Anything for attention. Challenging another candidate to a pull up contest? That makes no sense. Challenge him to "Jeopardy", then you're talking!!!!
ReplyDeleteGot my popcorn and champagne ready!!
Really? Is this what politics in America has descended to? Jesus, we're in serious trouble. And doesn't Perry have some serious legal issues to deal with?
ReplyDeleteHow about having an American heart, $arah?
Is this what politics in America has descended to?
Delete---------------
Yes, but only on the republican side.
only the candidates that do the most push ups will be eligible for the second debate, they are also considering a swimsuit contest and talent portion.
What about "the candidate with the most illigitimate grandkids"? $carah could enter, then, and WIN hands down!. McCain should lose his cushy job at the next election, he has done so much damage to this country.
Deletehe unleashed a complete MORON, and this is the result of that decision.
Maybe she means "An Alaskan AIP heart"?
DeleteAnd, the Palins have such big 'Alaskan hearts' that they were members of the AIP group in Alaska (that has one of their members now in jail due his wanting to kill certain judges in Alaska, etc.) that wanted Alaska to secede from the USA!
DeleteTodd Palin was a proven member (during the campaign of McCain) - even though Sarah tried to lie about it and was caught! - due to his having paid dues to the organization for seven years! Steve Schmidt caught her in her lie - right to Sarah's face! It's all on camera!

BREAKING NEWS
ReplyDeleteSimil Valley, CA
Seismic sensors placed inside the grave of President Ronald Reagan are picking up movement of some kind from inside the coffin. Onsite security are closely monitoring the situation which started after a visitor to the Reagan Library was heard speaking to the grave marker reciting the names of those running for the Republican Presidential nomination in 2016. This is not the first time movement inside the Reagan resting place has been sensed. It occurred for six weeks starting in August 2008 when Senator John McCain regretfully had to choose Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin as his VP running mate.
To recap, President Ronald Reagan is spinning in his grave tonight.
{{{clapping}}}
DeleteGood job!
JJ
hahahahaha
DeleteMy theory is that the powers that be did not want little lumpy Johnny anywhere near the WH. They do not like him, even said he does not have the disposition to be President. So, to make sure he lost (which he probably would anyway) they MADE him take $carah. I doubt even THEY realized how nuts she was, and how much baggage she dragged along with her. Too bad there is not one honest person attached to that fiasco, who is willing to come forward and tell the truth about $carah.
DeleteI think Mr. Oops should be more concerned about his up coming trial, he'll have a lot of time in prison to master pull ups.

ReplyDeleteWas this book ever discussed?
Drat, can't find the title. There's a chapter about Todd's family where his cousin talks about their love for Sarah. She describes how Todd beamed when he told his grandmother and family about the McCain decision, making it sound like he is a grandma's boy. There's also a picture of Todd, his 3 oldest kids and his grandmother. Looks to be around 1998?
I never knew a member of that family gave an interview in 2008. Actually, I didn't know they did at all. I recall people talking about the yupik side, which led me to a book on Inuits. Lena is profiled. She was an orphan at one time. Sounds very interesting. One distant relative delivered mail between villages via dogsled .
With all the media hate and manipulation, it's a shame good stories are lost.
8:06 PM Alicia Mangelsdorf the hate and manipulation Palin obsessed troll, The only thing o-t here is you. Go away with your Dillingham BS.
DeleteWhat the HELL happened to "the good" in Todd? Does $carah taint EVERYONE and EVERYTHING she comes into conrtact with? Sort of like poison ivy?
DeleteLOL--Anon 8:06 you know nothing. Not even the difference between Yupik and Iniut. Your horseshit may give the ignorant the impression you know what you are talking about but you are making up fairy tales to tell yourself. The Dillingham Palins hate Sarah and her family.
DeleteCome back when you can name the title of your fantasy book, okay? Because I am betting it never existed except in your own imagination.
DeleteSarah? Sarah....
DeleteI don't like John McCain one bit, but he doesn't have as much of the burden of the Sarah curse as the Alaskan fools who voted her into the Governor's office. She's not fit to be Mayor of Podunk Wasilla either. I would bet a lot of regular readers and commenters of this blog were for Sarah before they were against her.
ReplyDeleteInteresting point. Plenty of guilt to go around.
DeleteI'd love to see the pull-up contest. Trump is such a doughy mess dyed orange and he hasn't a muscle in his body. He covers all that excess meat up carefully but his thick hunched back and invisible neck just give the truth away. The only way he'd be able to do a pull-up is if his hair unwound itself and told his arms to get out of the way and it did the pull-up for them.
ReplyDeleteI think Trump and Perry should wear musce shirts and shorts for this. Also, too Christie should wear that "sexy" baseball outfit that makes him look like Tweedle Dum. Santorum could have a replica of the Pope's hat made for himself. Maybe Rand Paul could print himself a degree qualifying him to be President?
DeleteI think they should insist that Chris Christie compete as well. And they at least attempt to measure his little Vienna sausage as well.
ReplyDeleteLol....
DeleteOff topic: I have several family members in the Phoenix and Tucson areas. Two of my cousins are nurses in the neonatal unit of a big hospital in Phoenix. Does any body know if Bristol plans to have her baby in Arizona? Or when she's due?
ReplyDeleteI think the PayMes have Dr. CBJ by the short hairs. She likely travels to wherever they are, to deliver these babies Bristles keeps popping out. Maybe some day she will regain her self respect, and spill the beans.
DeleteThe only pull-ups these two need are of the Pampers variety.
ReplyDeleteWe need a much larger circus tent for this group of republikkkan's. Yes indeed. ummpy is entertaining and eb? poor guy and all the rest? please quit wasting our time and money. YOU people just don't get it. YOU people are takers, fakers, liars and an insult to our future. Your demise is your own party boat of fools.
ReplyDeleteI do not want to see either of these men involved in any physical activity, especially ones that involve sweat. Pardon me while I throw up.
ReplyDeletePull-up contest? Oh, I thought you said "Pull-Ups,"
ReplyDeleteLOL--me too! "I'm a big boy now,"--that sounds about their level.
DeletePullups, followed by arm wrestling, spitting and finally pissing.
ReplyDeleteThey're going to re-write the Constitution replacing the electoral congress with junior high pissing contests.
Wonder when they'll start with the yo' mamma.
