This was an ambush on all of Obama's opponents and particularly on Donald Trump in the audience. Totally classless and vicious. Can't wait to hear Trump on Fox and Friends Monday morning. He did not look happy and sat there staring at them. Of course, racism was attributed to Trump and the tea party. Trump was called a clown and they said there is a fox in his hair. They slammed Paul Ryan and made a sexist remark about Trump, the Miss USA pageant the the Republicans search for a VP being streamlined.

Democrats fabricate things about others that they routinely do themselves.

A classless bunch if there ever was one!
I take the chance of being called a “racist” when I say the WH and their minions have shown their “true colors”.

Invite folks to come to a gathering and then blast them with venom and vile remarks. That’s the kind of unhuman thing that was elected president. He did that to Paul Ryan not long ago.
Perhaps it is time for a major news conference on the steps of the House explaining why the R’s will no longer be subjected to this mistreatment by the Executive branch.
I think they should ask for major change in the way the WH treats members of the opposing party. Explain “civility” to this cretin.

It was pathetic barrage of dung on Trump, he wasn't amused, he could be seen boiling. I bet he is coming out with vengeance and will sink the Kenyan.

The lowest point was not the mockery of Trump but the abortion joke. I think Meyers was referring to the White House Correspondents Association, when he said, “Senator Kyl told me 90 percent of what they do is abortions.”

I haven't watched the video so I couldn't tell you if 0bama laughed.

Why do Republicans continue to bring a knife to a gun-fight?

Yep, Obama was crass, petty and vindictive. What's new? That's his M.O. While Republicans try to cling to some political civility of yesteryear, Democrats and their media co-conspirators do everything they can to marginalize, intimidate and silence their political enemies. And, Republicans legitimize these kinds of events just by virtue of the attendance.. Why do they attend?

Last night was an orgy of anti-Republican anti-Conservative hate and vile. But, does it really surprise anyone? It's been like this for almost 20-years, reaching its pinnacle of hate several years ago with the Steven Colbert performance. After that debacle, Bush and EVERY GOP politician/journalist should have said ENOUGH, and stopped going.

Instead, we're like the battered wife who keeps bailing her husband out of jail and refuses to testify against him. How many times do we have to get burned by the fire of the WHCD before someone says - "Man, that's stupid, why don't we stop doing that?"

Trump basically said that it was a shame to be at an event like that and know that the American people are out there suffering. Of course the media are so GD stupid it went right over their heads.

Strike two on Obama!

BTW, did you read what Palin said about Trump at the event she went to? She said “We are buddies.”

I think somebody has been in touch with each other.

I hope that Trump goes home, gathers the experts, and reviews the video of Obama’s speech together several times.
After a cooling off period and when Trump reacts in public, I hope he does so with counsel and careful deliberation so that he cannot be easily attacked again for his reaction.

It would be so easy for Trump to answer with anger. He should answer cooly and with carefully chosen words. He can deal with Obama in his own way, and I do hope he can skewer this fraud with every known way possible.

I don’t understand it either. There was a thread last night that mentioned that Donald Trump, Newt Gingrich, and Jon Huntsman were all in attendance. I replied that anyone who attended the WHCA dinner was not a serious candidate. I found out later that Michele Bachmann was also there. Of them all, she is the one whose attendance most surprised and disappointed me.

Sarah Palin was invited, but instead chose to speak at a meeting for “Heroic Media”, a pro-life advertising group. During her remarks, she said “”The pro-life cause or the White House Correspondents’ Dinner? I choose life.” I might add that given the choice between leftwing buffoonery and conservative dignity, Ms Palin chose rightly.

We really don’t need to wonder why there is such a high jump in the percentage of bulling events that’s been going on with our young people in the past few years. Do we?

Monkey see, monkey do. They’ve been watching democrats verbally beat up & belittle republicans & conservatives, & then they hear the echo cumming from not only the mainstream media as they beat up republicans & conservatives, but now they hear it from obama as well.

Our young people are just mimicking the actions they’ve been seeing from dems & the msm. Monkey see, monkey do. They beat up & belittle each other just like the dems and the msm beat up and belittle republicans & conservatives.

Ms. Palin called the right shot. Why? Because the WHCAD was watched by a tiny TV audience. These Washington elite idiots, their con man POTUS Obama, the swooning “Obama” media, the Hollywood dumb butt celebrities are in their own dreamland bubble that will burst shortly. That bubble is not American, nor it is a good snap shot of the American people. Donald Trump, like every dog, will have his day. Obama, lately sinks, every time he open his yap!!!

Yes, and after Palin left the pro-life meeting, she and Greta VanSustern attended together the PMSNBC after party that was held after the WH Correspondent’s Dinner. Yes, you heard right, the “MSNBC” after party. Explain that one.

Nope, I can’t explain it. What’s your speculation?
