Trash-Talking Vegas Mayor Swallows Hard As Whale-in-Chief Draws $1.5 Billion in Chips

Las Vegas Mayor Oscar “You Don’t Get a Nose Like This Playing Ping-Pong” Goodman discovered on Friday that “slow learner” Barack Obama is a faster read than he thought, when the President arrived in Nevada on a campaign stop for Sen. Harry Reid packing a $1.5 billion bankroll in the form of mortgage assistance for out-of-work homeowners in five of the hardest-hit states, including Nevada.

Goodman is famous for blaming Las Vegas’ Dubai-like overdevelopment, high profile real estate fire-sales and Recession-fueled drop in tourism, convention and gambling revenues on the President’s fiscally-prudent observations that people who can’t afford their kids’ college tuition (and failing companies that were bailed-out with taxpayer cash) shouldn’t piss money away on craps tables and prostitutes.

Here’s the outraged Mayor McRumblossom a few weeks back, threatening to give Obama the “boot” if he ever stepped foot in Vegas:

And here he is yesterday, auditioning for a role in the upcoming YouTube video production of 2 Girls 1 Cup & 1 Mayor:

I love the overdevelopment link, which leads to a stalled project called “The Echelon.”

The developer was so taken with the name (sounds like “Avalon!”) that nobody stopped to think that there is such a thing as a lower echelon. Or that, especially given the present circumstances, people would shorten the name to, say, the Echhh.

Not as good as “The Penultimate In Dining,” but it’s in the same….em, rank.

And speaking of which, Strange, I’m afraid you have made an indelible contribution to the old saying “eating crow” being entirely superceded.

I’d say that meets the criterion.

It would be a lot more fun mocking Goodman if he didn’t do a hell of a lot better than fellow Democrat Harry Reid in a hypothetical Senate matchup.

Yeah, I know, Steve. But I love watching an arrogant, big-talking gin-sponge with a potato-nose having to suck his own cock. ;->

Blaming Obama’s comments for the flaming wreckage of the Fake, Pus-Filled American Dream on the Strip earned him a permanent place in my personal Big Book of Tiny Dicks.
