According to Donald Trump, bankruptcy “doesn’t matter.” I’m sure that it helps a bit for him to know that while his company will be going bankrupt and that hundreds of people invested in the company will lose lots of money, he still gets his 2 million a year plus other benefits. If I’m not mistaken, Trump has a book out about how to get rich. I wonder if it has a chapter on cheating people out of their investment money. Well it’s not any wonder that so many people resent “the rich,” when high-profile wealthy people like Trump give them reasons to.

Trading partners on TV
Here’s the latest from America’s denigrated culture mills: ABC and Fox see who can be the first to cheapen marriage even more on TV, by getting married couples to “trade” partners in a new “reality” show. This is reality?
Kerry: Records? Did I want those?
Plot thickens after checking records:
“What could that more than 100 pages contain? Questions have been raised about President Bush’s drill attendance in the reserves, but Bush received his honorable discharge on schedule. Kerry, who should have been discharged from the Navy about the same time — July 1, 1972 — wasn’t given the discharge he has on his campaign Web site until July 13, 1978. What delayed the discharge for six years? This raises serious questions about Kerry’s performance while in the reserves that are far more potentially damaging than those raised against Bush. “
It just keeps getting worse and worse. By now, I am sure John Kerry is quite regretful of making his Vietnam service the centerpiece of his campaign. It’s as if Ted Kennedy launched a bid for president by extolling his virtuous behavior in Chappaquiddick.

Freedom of speech? Not so much.
Bush Campaign to Legally Challenge 527 Ads – I find this whole notion of stopping organizations from running ads against politicians blatantly un-American. Regardless of who is benefiting from what ads, doesn’t the First Amendment say something about freedom of political speech? Apparently not during an election year. Instead of caving in to the stunts and rants of people whining about Swift Vets speaking their minds about Kerry, Bush should be apologizing for signing the so-called “campaign finance reform bill” and asking Kerry why a group of Swift Vets shouldn’t be allowed freedom of speech.
