Drudge's 'Liberty Tax' Proves How Little White House, Left Know About Business
Breitbart ^ | March 22, 2014 | John Nolte

Posted on 03/22/2014 6:08:45 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Checking Breitbart News before bed last night (I'm both an employee and a fan), I thought I knew exactly what had happened based on the headline of Matthew Boyle's story about Matt Drudge paying a "Liberty Tax." Based on a previous tweet, I was already aware that Drudge  was not going to enroll in ObamaCare. Therefore, I simply assumed he had filed his quarterly business taxes in advance, used Twitter to announce he had chosen to pay the ObamaCare fine, and in turn this had caused outrage from the Obama White House and Left.

College students, teachers & professors, media types, government workers, Obamaphone women, Trayvons, Starbucks employees ....

Not many Democrat groups would have any clue about this. Maybe hairdressers and trial lawyers? That’s about it.

But muslims lie and accuse others of lying. Obama is a muslim, and his legions are proud to help him lie.

“As this helpful IRS explainer details, Americans who go without insurance in 2014 should “make an individual shared responsibility payment with your 2014 tax return filed in 2015.” Ouch

Drudge is an individually owned business and is required to file quarterly Fed tax estimates with 4 payments during 2014.

So DRUDGE is technically correct in stating he just PAID his "tax" (the obamacare law calls it a penalty but Chief Justice Roberts who was blackmailed into rewriting the law as a TAX) which included some unknown amount for not having signed up for obamacare.

“I wonder how many of these clowns will offer Drudge an apology and admit that they were wrong?”

Because if you stick with a lie and repeat it often enough, it becomes the truth...a “go-to” tactic for oppressive regimes that has proven reliable for almost a century.

Exactly. Here is the IRS reference on the additional Medicare tax as implemented by Obamacare - http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-&-Self-Employed/Questions-and-Answers-for-the-Additional-Medicare-Tax

That goes to show you how much the media - and even the White House - knows about small business in the USA!

The White House and the media claim that Matt Drudge doesn’t have to pay that Obamacare Tax until next year!!

They don’t seem to realize that small business has to pay their tax into IRS - quarterly!

This just goes to show you how ignorant and inept Obama and his people are!!

“Whose next you feckin’ commies?!!”

Hats off to you.

He&& will freeze over when all of those punks apologize at the graves of all the people who didn’t make it home.

The only consolation will be, some day, to see them head for the hills when they’re voted out of office in droves, en masse, picking off the feathers from the tar.

Semper Fi, Welcome Home, Never Forget.

IMHO

The various extensions, exemptions, delays, etc., have made such a mess that no one really knows what is due now, what is due each quarter, what is delayed for 1 year, what is delayed for 3 years, what is covered, what is not covered, etc.

As soon as those concerned (FED agencies, Insurance companies, accounting, individuals, small businesses) seem to be getting a handle on the confusion, Team Obama issues another delay or exemption or rule.

Maybe they are angry because they were planning to levy a late fee on all those who didn’t pay ‘like Drudge’ in their quarterly taxes after the tax filings next year for 2014, and he has now warned business owners of truth. Could it have been a plan all along to boost revenues through deception and a LATE penalty? Thereby hurting small businesses once again.

Back in 06’, my cuz’ just got back for R&R from Red Cloud at the DMZ. It was still the height of those anti-US pukes against the Iraq War.

When we picked him up from the airport, 3 of these idiots were picking on him because he still wore his uni when waiting near the tarmac. Eventually, there was a scuffle. Eventually the police came up and questioned everyone. He was smart enough to angle towards the security camera for evidence. Actually he decked one of them and he bled on the pavement.

The long story short: after questioning we were in the car going home and we asked him what the liberals said that ended with him decking one of them to the ground.

He said “oh the usual I hate the Iraq war, oil for war blah blah. But the one thing that blew my fuse was that they spit on my boots. It took me 2 hours to shine my boots.”

Democrats are stupid communist fools. They know so little about America, business, economics, or taxes. They will soon learn however that payment is what government wants most of all. Payment. Government is really about money.

Somebody is spamming the comments section with the Bill of Rights every few seconds, so it’s impossible to read the other comments. I wonder what they’re hiding?
