You Can't Illegally Jump Trump's Fence Mr. Ramos


Univision reporter and immigration advocate Jorge Ramos jumped a line of reporters and began asking questions of Donald Trump. Trump told him to sit down because he had not been called to ask a question. Ramos persisted and Trump had him deported him from the venue.

Ramos claimed that he had a "right" to ask his question. No, he didn't. Ramos certainly had a "right" to wait in line with the other journalists at the event, and he might even have had a "right" to be vexed if he’d been obviously passed over.

But he certainly didn’t have a right to stand up and make a scene, nor to disrupt the proceedings for everybody else. Having a press credential in your pocket does not entitle you to behave like Code Pink.

So, just as people illegally cross the southern border daily without regard to the many people who go about applying for citizenship legally, Trump said, "Go back to Univision.

The liberal media, ABC, CBS and obviously NBC all reported that Ramos was singled out and some reporters seemed to object (citing the day when during a white house press conference, when a FOX News reoorter was snubbed.

Interestingly, ABC is owned by Disney who also owns Univision, who is being sued by Trump for breach of contract over Univision's decision not to air the Miss America pageant which Trump owns.

The Hits Just Keep On Coming: A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Guido, has cheated him out of $10,000,000. His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the first place. It was assumed that Guido would hear nothing and would therefore never have to testify in court.

When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about the missing $10 million, he takes along his lawyer, who knows sign language. The Godfather tells the lawyer, "Ask him where the money is."

The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Guido's head and says, "Ask him again or I'll kill him!" The lawyer signs to Guido, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him." Guido trembles and signs back, "OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed at my cousin Bruno's house."

The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?" The lawyer replies, "He says you don't have the balls to pull the trigger."

Johnny's father said, "Now, son, that poor baby was born without any ears. I want you to be on your best behavior and not say one word about his ears or I am really going to spank you when we get back home." Little Johnny said, "I promise not to mention his ears at all."

At the neighbors home, Little Johnny leaned over in the crib and touched the baby's hand He looked at it's mother and said, "Oh What a beautiful little baby." The mother said, "Thank you very much, Johnny."

Then Johnny said, "This baby has perfect little hands and perfect little feet. Just look at his pretty little eyes. Did his doctor say that he can see well?" The mother said "Why, yes Johnny, his doctor said he has 20/20 vision. Little Johnny said "Well, that's good, 'cause he sure as hell couldn't wear glasses!!"

  1. Ad always, a good read and put together well. Just got in from the state of Florida. We drove 1100 miles for a 45 minute appt., but the trip was good. Love Florida, even if it is only my winter home now, since we became mobile.

    We drive a little FIT and she is close, and I get to play with her leg as I drive. That is fun even to a 77 year old man!

    Good post...
