Private Bone Spurs finally reports for duty.

Today, for the first time during his presidency, president trump visited the troops in a combat zone.

Clearly it was not something that he had planned to do, but public shaming and trying to push a story concerning his draft dodging days clearly forced his hand.

We know that he was shamed into finally visiting the troops, because he had planned to go on vacation and play golf in Florida during the Christmas break. We also know that the New York Times broke a major story outlining how Mr.trump's father cut some strings with a doctor in New York to get his son out of Vietnam.

"It turns out all the rumors and speculation may be true after all and President Donald Trump likely never suffered from bone spurs. Trump famously received a medical exemption from the military during the Vietnam War because he was diagnosed with bone spurs in his heels. But now the daughters of a Queens podiatrist tell the New York Times their late father wrote the diagnosis as a favor to the president’s father, Fred Trump, who was the foot doctor’s landlord. “I know it was a favor,” said Dr. Elysa Braunstein, one of the daughters of Dr. Larry Braunstein, who died in 2007. “It was family lore.” She added that “it was something we would always discuss.” Her sister, Sharon Kessel, also corroborated that account although neither daughter could confirm whether their father had actually examined the president.

There is no documentation to back up the claim, and the daughters openly acknowledge they are Democrats who dislike Trump. The late podiatrist, who was a lifelong Democrat, also apparently wasn’t a big fan of the now-president. Although he once talked about the diagnosis with pride because he had helped a “famous guy,” he later got irritated by Trump’s tabloid persona.

At the time though, it seems Braunstein got a clear benefit from helping his landlord’s son. “What he got was access to Fred Trump,” Elysa Braunstein said. “If there was anything wrong in the building, my dad would call and Trump would take care of it immediately. That was the small favor that he got.”

The daughters say they believe another podiatrist, Dr. Manny Weinstein, also assisted in the diagnosis although his role is not exactly clear. He did live in two apartments in Brooklyn owned by Fred Trump and moved into the first one the same year that Donald Trump received the exemption. Weinstein died in 1995. " [Source]

So it turns out that the story of Private Bone Spurs is probably true. The legend grows.

No wonder the guy decided to scramble Air Force One and head to Iraq today. He had to change the headlines.

"Accompanied by first lady Melania Trump, the president sounded a triumphant note as he addressed U.S. service members on the day after Christmas. “We’re no longer the suckers, folks,” he said. And he warned that he was committed to withdrawing troops from foreign wars even when his administration’s experts object."

“We’re no longer the suckers, folks.." 

No we are not Private Bone Spurs. We are on to you.

He received the Purple Heart so he had to have served in some capacity right?🤔

"He received the Purple Heart so he had to have served in some capacity right?🤔"

He was wounded with a blistering case of gonorrhea while fighting in the Battle of Tu Much Poontang.

From a Trump interview with Howard Stern:

"Hey, so wait a second, get back to my question," Stern said. "Let's say you're with a hot chick, right? But you're so germ paranoid, and I'm germ paranoid, do you say to them, 'look you've got to go take a medical test before I do you.'"

"Well, you'd like to say that, and sometimes you do," added Trump. "The problem is that sometimes your own chemicals take over and you can't wait."

"So you'll just have straight intercourse with a rubber with them right?" Stern asked.

"Well, I don't know, you know there's lots of different ways of doing it. It's a very complicated subject. They say that more people were killed by women in this act than killed in Vietnam, OK," Trump said.

"Yes, that is true," replied Stern.

"You know, you get criticized for that statement, but that statement is very easily true," added Trump.

Stern responded, "I even went as far to say that you're braver than any Vietnam vet because you're out there screwing a lot of women."

"Getting the Congressional Medal of Honor, in actuality," said Trump.

Later in the interview Trump and Stern again compared avoiding STDs to Vietnam.

"I'm having a good time, but Howard, you know the one negative: It's very, very dangerous out there," said Trump.

"Yes it is, it's your Vietnam," added Stern.

"It's Vietnam," added Trump. "It is very dangerous. So I'm very, very careful."

We've always known that the bone spurs only existed in Fergus' head, but with the way he's been behaving lately it seems like there may be actual bone spurs up there.

With the trip to Iraq that he's on record saying he didn't want to take, and the naming of the Post Office after the man he repeatedly denigrated on the campaign trail, I wonder what kind of upcoming bad news he knows about and is compensating for?

Or maybe he is just as one dimensional and venal as he seems.

I'm guessing both events were the result of "somebody other than Trump in the driver's seat."

Whenever anything sensible comes out of the White House, you can bet that a White House staffer arranged it. But soon enough, Trump wrestles the wheel away from the staff and gets back on course to a disastrous destination, and then ridiculous bullshit ensues. Like when Congress was all set to pass a budget, but then Trump lurched awake for five minutes and heard Ann Coulter trash-talking him, and he decided he'd shut down the government to try to get his dumb wall.

Basically, we have a part-time president, and things are only halfway okay whenever Trump is tweeting or golfing. But the moment he decides he needs to make some kind of decision (which is always just a show for his idiot base), then we're back to the dysfunction.

Some fucking combat zone. The U.S. military has a green zone bigger than a city in Iraq for better than twelve years now. Of course I am glad that the president was perfectly safe. No U.S. president would even be allowed to put his life in danger by actually visiting troops on a front line. We leave that to Bob Hope and Al Franken. But that fucking bomber jacket! What a kick. At least the Shrub looked good in his flight suit. Not to mention that he had worn one before when he was in the Air National Guard. Trump looked like Rush Limbaugh morphing into the Incredible Hulk trying to be a gay Fonzi. It probably took two cows just to make the leather. And he wore it over his trademark suit, so you saw his size 20 starched shirt and his three-foot long red tie. Surrealistic. Good thing that everybody has a wide-screen TV so we could see his face in a natural size.

The universal hypocrisy surrounding faked deferments is long overdue for exposure. During the Vietnam War, middle class 20-somethings routinely got deferments for minor ailments or for completely made-up conditions. I was referred by the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts in NYC to a shrink who blew up a minor neurosis into a debilitating perversion and got me classed 4F, a potentially dangerous class for my professional future but one that fortunately never csme back to bite me. I felt vindicated from shirking military service after MacNamara's confession and the domino theory of Asian communist takeovers proved false. But anyway Trump's "bone spurs" dodge is the least of his crimes.

A good analysis by one of the morning talking heads on Trump's total dementia vis a vis international relations and dealmaking generally: he believes that in order for him (or us) to win, everyone else has to lose. That's ludicrous and fatal in foreign affairs. If we are working with international alliances who appreciate our support it doesn't mean we're "suckers." We've been winning too. Trump doesn't see that, and another two years of his mentality may create a lot of danger for us, never mind reduce our influence (and economic reach, i.e. prosperity).

Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network says 27% of US rapists are black:

https://www.rainn.org/statistics/perpetrators-sexual-violence

Blacks are less than 13% of the US population, so they are more than twice as likely to rape.

"Whites" are listed as 57% of rapists, but there are no separate Hispanic or Middle Eastern categories so the actual fraction of rapists who are unmixed European is quite a bit less than that.

It is estimated that the vast majority of rapes are never reported, so it is impossible to know the "race" of the rapist. However you effort to smear Blacks with the "scary black men" lie has been effective since the American Civil War. Most of us are sick of this tired old tactic that aims to stir up hatred.

From McClatchy today:

"A mobile phone traced to President Donald Trump's former lawyer and "fixer" Michael Cohen briefly sent signals ricocheting off cell towers in the Prague area in late summer 2016, at the height of the presidential campaign, leaving an electronic record to support claims that Cohen met secretly there with Russian officials, four people with knowledge of the matter say.

During the same period of late August or early September, electronic eavesdropping by an Eastern European intelligence agency picked up a conversation among Russians, one of whom remarked that Cohen was in Prague, two people familiar with the incident said."

Cohen also didn't need passport to go from one country to another in Europe, which would explain why there was no passport activity.

The preside t needs to be trashed. He came to iraq not to raise the soldiers spirit, but to have another rally with a captive auxiance. He only sleak in secured locations. Not once did i see him outside of the tents that concealed him. His descriptions of fear on!y cemented his history of being afraid. Remember he was too afraid to go to Vietnam. I went as a young 18 year old Black that had not full citizensbip. Now i see the commander not going into combat areas. Hiding behind Malania. This the leDer you want. But then again i see the middle America white boys numbers are high. These whites will follow Donald before they serve for the country, so you minorites and AA, Watch out. It was against the law for soldidrs to promote any political party. You heard and saw Donald with his campaign style speech.

Obama attacked Libya for absolutely no reason, overthrew the government, murdered the country's leader, created anarchic situation that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and kicked off the refugee crisis that has flooded Europe.

Obama started the war in Syria that has resulted in up to a million dead citizens and caused millions more to flee the country. He created ISIS to fight Assad.

Trump is the first President in my lifetime to start reining in this insanity.

Never do you say that it's wrong to convict without firm evidence of guilt, and especially not the innocent.  From the article you posted a bad link to:

>> District Attorney Hillary LaBorde defended Strother in a statement,
>> calling his decision “the best outcome given the facts of this case.”
>> She argued that conflicting evidence and statements made the
>> woman’s allegation “difficult to prove beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Like most libtarded things, you have the truth completely backwards.  Prosecutors LOVE a white rape defendant because they hate being "racist".  The Duke lacrosse defendants were railroaded despite air-tight evidence proving their innocence (accuser Crystal Gayle Mangum is now in prison for murder).  Jackie Coakley completely fabricated a rape and caused the entire membership of the falsely-accused fraternity to suffer.  Then we have "Mattress Girl"....

Meanwhile, universities employ "fixers" to silence victims of black athlete rapists.  Victims can only be believed when the alleged perps are white, while blacks who are important for university standing in team sports usually skate with impunity.
