What factual basis does he have for saying this...has she been diagnosed as disturbed? Has she had a screaming fit on TV or jumped up and down on a couch? Has she slept with an intern and lied about it? Does she spend millions hiding her Birth and school records?
And how is this different from Diane Sawyer, Katie Couric....or Michelle Obama?
No proof of or basis for this, by all appearances she has spent her life working hard, excelling in both the political and personal theater
Now this is right out of the left wing propaganda play book...take her strongest attribute...her honesty........ and call her a liar and a fake with no basis in fact.
She is more experienced than Barack Obama, an idealogue who has actually been handed the controls of the USA....is spending money like a floozy, stepping on his tongue all over the world, losing respect from our allies and enemies....yet where is the talk of his 'derangement"? This is nothing but the perverse logic of some sophomoric jerk with nothing to back it up, yet it will pass as gospel to the unsuspecting and uninformed reader. (If the shoe fits....)
Actually the GOP is , by and large trapped by their own selfish compromises to the left...and they too should for the most part be dumped out of office with the hopelessly partisan Democrats. This sentence is designed to make a Conservative viewpoint seem like a desperate alternative rather than the position of the majority of taxpaying voters.
This is simply nonsensical lable libeling and reverse psychology. The true elitists have always been the limousine liberals.
"Whacked out Religious practices"....... Reverend Wright anyone?
"Questionable ethics".................... Backroom Chicago politics and ACORN sound familiar?
"Family Scandals".....her teenage daughter had a baby......wow!....Anyone remember Obama's sister living in poverty in Boston?.....and he was born and raised where?
Finally how can you be a "Con artist" with "abject stupidity"?........ seems like the author is describing himself.
Based on this, I presume they should either nominate someone who has no strong positions and therefore has no chance of winning (McCain) or simply back Obama and do away with the two party system completely....sadly we are on the verge of that very occurence if something doesn't change quickly.

04-07-2010 10:18 AMBoss, I believe everything the oil companies tell me.
Nice work, T2x.
I particularly like your comment about how she has "spent her life working hard, excelling in both the political and personal theater"
How does 5 colleges in 6 years and quitting halfway thru your term as gov qualify as working hard?
and this: "Does she spend millions hiding her Birth and school records?"
She has yet to produce a birth certificate for Trig, and as of today has yet to give a single press conference.

04-07-2010 10:20 AMI cant call myself repub anymore either because they are not conservative anymore. The Bush years were the most fiscally and economically liberal years since LBJ.

04-07-2010 10:27 AMI wasn't aware that Trig was running for a public office that required the candidate to be a natural-born citizen.
I thought the idea of asking Obama to prove his citizenship was a bit off-color. Right up until he refused to do it. I can't get a passport without proving my citizenship. How can you become president without presenting proper paperwork?

I am not aware that the oil companies have filed false financial statements in past years.
Perhaps you could enlighten us with specifics?
I think you are confusing large profitability with greed and chicanary.
Greed and chicanary is far more of a problem in DC, and Chicago then at Exxon or Texaco. Again all this does is take the spotlight off the real bad guys:
Chavez, Castro, Putin, Al Qaeda, The UFT, Iran, North Korea, Reid, Pelosi, Barney Frank, Rahm Emanuel and Barack Hussein Obama.
If we could focus on and deal with the real devastation that these guys represent, we would actually make some improvements in this crazy world... Playing "My Democrats are better than your Republicans" simply plays into the hands of the devious vermin listed above.

04-09-2010 12:28 PMThat's a very simplistic view of a very complicated corporate tax reporting system, as the author found out. Companies like GE and XOM pay tens of billions of dollars in taxes all around the world, including the USA. Offsets to taxable income can come from a variety of sources, including things as simple as overpayments, which result in either refunds, or reductions in taxes owed.
I have to send in several hundred thousand dollars in US taxes next week (not me personally), which may very well be offset by expenses the rest of the year, maybe not. Quarterly tax estimating is difficult at best, and does not give a clear picture of what's going on.
I do agree, however, that the current tax laws make this a needlessly complicated process. The global economy has made the US tax system stick out like a sore thumb. In any review of tax policy, one must make sure it is not only fair-minded, but also is not designed in a way as to give incentive for companies to invest elsewhere. If anything, in this day and age, you want to give incentives for companies to grow and build within our own borders.
This is especially true for smaller companies and entrepreneurs. They have to compete with larger, global companies in some way, shape or form. Most do not have the advantages of foreign subsidiaries, economies of scale, nor the additional capital to invest in legions of tax lawyers and accountants to minimize their burdens.
The answer lies not in more compliance or higher taxes. The answer is to incentivize all companies to build, grow, employ and remain here in the USA. I don't mean the various state and federal subsidies and things like that, which I think are self-defeating and more geared towards regional competition. Companies, both large and small, are what everyone depends upon for this country to remain powerful, and to grow the standard of living. We've only seen a glimpse of what happens when you price yourselves out of the market.

04-09-2010 01:27 PMI heard this yesterday. It's maybe the truest thing I've ever heard.
When more than one half of the population of a democracy isn't required to pay taxes, there absolutely no incentive for that majority to keep that situation in place, nor any reason for them not to continue to raise the tax rates on those paying taxes for the things that they want.

I assume you mean NOT keep that situation in place but is basically the same as "A democracy fails when the people realize they can vote themselves money from the public treasury" or something like that. This is in large part what has me so riled up politically. The Dem's are pursuing this policy of increasing gov't dependence to ensure they continue to get the votes to get re-elected. It is sad, and infuriating...they must be stopped.
