Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year Mr. Trump!

In this world of trendset phony apologists, how nice to see someone articulate such an exacting summary of O' Donnell. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Bravo!
Under the wire, your quote is the years best.

NEW YORK — The Miss USA partying episode has led to a war of words between Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump.

O'Donnell, co-host of the ABC television morning talk show “The View,” said on Wednesday's show that Trump's news conference with Tara Conner had annoyed her “on a multitude of levels.”

“Left the first wife, had an affair, left the second wife, had an affair. Had kids both times, but he's the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America,” O'Donnell said to roars of audience laughter. “Donald, sit and spin, my friend.”

She continued: “He inherited a lot of money, wait a minute, and he's been bankrupt so many times where he didn't have to pay. ... I just think that this man is sort of like one of those, you know, snake oil salesmen in 'Little House on the Prairie.”'

“Rosie O'Donnell is disgusting, I mean both inside and out,” Trump shot back on the syndicated entertainment show “The Insider.” “Take a look at her, she's a slob. She talks like a truck driver. ... Her show failed when it was a talk show, she failed on that. The ratings went very, very low and very bad and she got essentially thrown off television. Her magazine was a total catastrophe, she got sued. ...

“I never went bankrupt, but she said I went bankrupt. So probably I'll sue her because it would be fun. I'd like to take some money out of her fat-ass pockets,” he said.

'Canadian Soldier' voted 2006 Newsmaker

After its annual poll of editors and broadcasters across the country, the Canadian Press and Broadcast News named "the Canadian soldier" as Newsmaker of the Year.

The head of Canada's military, Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Rick Hillier, welcomed the honour.

"The fact that Canadians have really realized the importance of the Canadian Forces, the role that it plays in our society, how it helps protect Canadian interests, at home, around the continent and internationally … is an incredible compliment to Canadian soldiers," Hillier said Monday, while on a Christmas visit to the country's troops in Afghanistan.
