That #WHCD was pathetic. The rest of America is out there working our asses off while these DC assclowns throw themselves a #nerdprom

                                

 

 

 

I'm giving her credit for being partially correct, in that the White House Correspondents' Dinner is really pathetic. I'm deducting points for apparently not realizing that this event occurs every year and was just as pathetic during the Bush Administration as it was during the Clinton Years, as it was during the Bush, Sr. years, etc.

 

Also, she doesn't seem to have any clue as to why this event is so pathetic. (I know, shocking!) It's not because the White House Correspondents' Association is goofing off while the rest of us are working. It was Saturday night, for fuck's sake, they're allowed a social life! It's pathetic because these are the people who are supposed to hold the administration's feet to the fire. They're not supposed to be friendly with the President, Senators, Congress Critters, etc.

 

Of course, no WHCD could ever match the nadir of indecency that was 2004:

 

 

And the press just yucked it up along with him, no one had the common decency to even get up and walk out on this obscenity. That's why the WHCD is pathetic, not because the reporters and/or politicians are taking an evening off.

Also, "working our asses off?" OUR asses? You don't have a job, you nitwit. What is it you do all day? Is it hard work having another book ghostwritten for you? Or having one of your minions update your Facebook page with more bullshit? You quit the last actual job you had halfway through, you don't get to complain about other people not working hard enough.
