The old media can pound sand.
I am Joe the Plumber.
BETTER TITLE...
Joe owes back taxes, Congress owes taxpayers an explanation!
Maybe this will help your reading comprehension ... </sarcasm off> added to initial post.
Did you read what I said or what you wanted to see? You accuse me of damaging my credibility when all you did was impugn your own reading comprehension. I expected better here.
No kidding. I saw someone mention the link wasn’t working. Since I’ve been reading for a LONG time but post almost never, I may have messed up the link and would appreciate any assistance.
Absolutely! Iowahawk put it very well today. When the common man must be in fear of destruction by questioning his political masters, of what use is the First Amendment?
And I think that is *exactly* what the lefties intend (grrrrrr).
(That last grrrrr was for those who still think the topic title wasn’t sarcasm aimed at the lamestream media)
This bastard Obama is 100% guilty, because he doesnt make a move to stop it.
I'd be willing to bet that he encouraged it. Ordered it.
And the slavering mediots were only too happy to comply with their master's wishes.
According to that link, among other things, Bambi and the Mrs. haven’t voted since ‘98.
Too bad he’s not a Democrat Congressman or an illegal alien.
The media would be giving him a telathon!
As I replied privately, sometimes over-the-top sarcasm or ridicule of someone’s position is the only printable response. And I truly believe the MSM would say *exactly* that if they felt they could get away with it.
This is not his address
Really...well I better track down the poster and let them know. YIKES.
I supposed I could interpret your sarcasticl title to mean...
Look Who’s Calling Joe A Tax Cheat???
Bambi and the Mrs? Really? Interesting. I just was searching around for easily googled information about who might be close to “The Chosen One” (barf) with their own tax issues, since the media is so short staffed (layoffs due to people not buying their retarded product) to do their own research (/sarcasm off).
I couldn't reconcile the headline you invented with the data on the page you linked. There's no story, per se, so I relied too much on your headline for direction as to where you were trying to go with the whole thread.
To bad <SARCASM> tags don't fly in the headline field.
Probably would have been better to use a headline like "Money issues of Obama associates make Joe's tax debt a non-story". That kind of headline unambiguously communicates where you really were trying to take this thread in the first place.
Sorry, again, for the mix-up.
...and the link works fine. It’s good info.
Sarcasticle? I like it.
Before we get all worked up over this. Joe does not have an IRS tax Lein. He has a State of Ohio tax lein. I would guess his employer withheld Federal tax but did not withhold any State tax or, Joe didn’t make an estimated quarterly tax payment. This is quite frankly, no big deal. The State will usually let you make monthly payments and the lein stays in effect until the tax is paid. And, FYI the money owed includes penalty and interest, so the tax owed is probably not very much.
Contrast this with Obama’s Federal Election Commission report that said he paid ACORN $800,000 for “staging and lighting.” Who do you think is the bigger cheat? While we’re at it, how about the purchase of the lot from Rezko on the same day they purchased it? Hmmm, Rezko’s wife pays 650K, Barry pays 300K. Remind me to never let her handle my investments
If the media whores were doing their job, instead of knowing there is a small tax lein (which I bet will be paid off by donations by the end of next week) on Joe; we’d know if:
1. Barry was ACTUALLY a natual born US Citizen who is QUALIFIED to run.
2. Did William Ayers ghost write “Dreams of my Father.”
3. What happened to all the money distributed by Mssrs. Obama and Ayers in Chicago.
4. How is it that a resident of New York can boast about voting in Ohio; be identified by name, and no one bothers to look into it.
5. How is it that ACORN receives over 30 million tax dollars a year, the founders brother can embezzle over 1 million and nothing is done about it.
6. Why has the MSM given the Democrats a pass on offshore drilling in one of the worst economic times in this country (I actually already answered this one.)
7. Where is the investigative reports on Frank Raines; Jamie Gorelick; and the other CROOKS at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae? (For a hint see #6)
I used to be a member of the media and was rather proud of that fact, but not anymore. Maybe that’s why the tally lights on the front of the cameras are RED. It’s to remind them that they have evolved into nothing more than members of the world’s oldest profession.
