Randi Rhodes is running it. I hit the mute before that motherfucking pile of shit could even open his cat anus pie hole. I wish I could say out loud what I am thinking right now.

It was 7am here and I thought I'd catch up with news of the flooding in Queensland, but instead of the 7am news, I got that hot mess. Im now watching My Lottery Dream House International.while I have my brekky.

Have I just been lucky in the past and missed it, or is this a normal time for big announcements to be made in the US?

But I can’t, since I want to hear how badly he’s going to screw over the world. Endless lying, bitching, and rambling, punctuated by the sycophantic fawning of some hard hat type wearing a work vest and chewing gum who still believes TSF is going to bring jobs back. God, I can’t stand him.

he would turn something this significant--that he is fully aware is being watched and studied by world leaders, bankers and economists--into a shitshow. But sure enough, a few minutes in he lapses into that babbling bullshit baby-talk dialect he does when he speaks about foreign countries, and then the dam broke and we had the off-topic gush of unrelated rambling and insulting prior presidents.

I noticed that BBC World Service cut out of it too. Bloomberg (as you'd expect) is covering the whole thing. I'm hoping they will have intelligent guests attempt to decipher the plan and summarize the important parts. I'm sure it will be the only thing that is even discussed on Bloomberg Radio tonight.

They will dissect it.
