"I fault the law that allows him and me earning enormous sums to pay overall
federal taxes at a rate that's about half what the average person in my office pays."
Romney makes his money the same way I do. He makes money by moving around
big bucks, not by straining his back or going to work and cleaning toilets or whatever.
He makes it shoving around money."

If obama is a liberal... what does that make Newt?
Racist judge orders Obama to Court
Handjob
jurist thinks Obama is from Kenya
Obama laughs at the racist birthers...
Link
A Republican judge in 19th century Georgia has ordered Obama to appear in court this week
in a bullshit lawsuit challenging whether he is a natural-born US citizen qualified to be president.
The latest "birther" case has made claims that Obama was born overseas.
Birthers don't consider Hawaii to be an actual US state, apparently.
Although it is unclear whether a court could force a sitting president to appear in a court case,
Georgia Deputy Chief Judge Michael Malihi has denied a motion by the president's lawyer to
quash a subpoena that requires Obama to show up.
Judge Malihi?
I wonder what country he was born in?
Some Georgia knuckledragger made the racist complaint, which is intended to keep
a Black man's name off the state's ballot in the March presidential primary.
Oily Taitz, a California handjob attorney who brought the legal challenge, said she expects the
president's legal team to fight his appearance but by doing so would expose his vulnerability.
An Obama campaign official said the case would not likely proceed.
"As courts around the country have ruled time and again, these claims have no merit
and any attempts to compel the president's personal involvement will fail," a statement said.
But these racists will never give up.
I predict we will have another Black president within twenty years,
He or she, too, will be called "illegitimate" by Republican racists.

Subject: Megaupload crackdown
The news is that the justice department is going after a "pirate" web site called Megaupload
and they have shut them down in foreign countries and seized their assets also in a foreign country.
And the Justice Department did it without laws like PIPA and SOPA.
Looks to me like the music and movie industry already seems to have powers currently that
borderline on scary. I'm glad to see Congress stepping back and taking a more serious look at
laws that break the Internet. Thanks to Wikipedia and Craigslist for taking a bullet for the team.

The GOP flirts with suicide
Is Newt another Goldwater?
Link
Everything about Newt screams “general election disaster.” He is burdened with far too much
personal and ethical baggage, is far too prone to needlessly inflammatory and polarizing antics,
and turns off far too many voters with his arrogance and unconcealed contempt for his opponents.
Recent polls all show his unfavorable rating at or near 60 percent — more than double his favorables.
This mirrors what happened the last time Gingrich played such a prominent role on the national stage,
when he claimed the House speakership after the 1994 election and promptly established himself as
the country’s biggest asshole — the star of an estimated 75,000 Democratic attack ads in the 1996
campaign cycle. The more most people see of him, the less they like him.
We all need to get behind Newt at this critiocal juncture.
All good Democrats should make signs and march for Newt.
If asked by a pollster, tell them "We love Newt, nobody else can get our vote,"
We need to inflate his dirigible-sized eho even more, just to build up his hopes.
Then, on election day, Obama will win 55 states.

Damn, we need need to buy a frikkin island somewhere and get the hell out of this place.
At least it would be a landing place when this country finally goes belly up.

That Carnival ship disaster
Death toll up to 16, more still missing
Prediction:
I believe the truth will come out, eventually.
The problem is, the truth is very embarrassing.
Some crew members say the captain was distracted by some passengers.
The captain's wife is furious that he's being treated like a suspect.
What could cause a man to be distracted for, say, twenty minutes or so?
Captain seen with young woman jusr prior to crash
They enjoyed some wine and each other's company...
Link
Several passengers saw a blonde former crew member drinking with Captain Schettino,
just moments before the ill-fated cruise liner Costa Concordia hit a reef.
An Italian passenger said that he had seen Schettino drinking red wine with a woman
in one of the ship's restaurants less than an hour before the disaster.
"They were laughing, they were informal, it was very merry. "The wine?" he added.
"They drank at least a whole decanter, the last drops were poured into the commander's glass."

I see what you're saying, but you might be wrong.
If
Obama wins, we might see the "real" Obama emerge.
Obama
might be guilty of being naive, he might be guilty of being green,
he might be guilty of wanting his racist-fuck enemies to like him and
he
might be guilty of being willing to do anything to get re-elected.
But
I don't believe he would allow America to be harmed so he can get
richer.
That distinguishes him from everyone in the GOP.

Romney finally releases taxes
Paid 13% rate, wrote off hookers and cocaine
"I've lied about everything..."
Link
Mitt Romney released his tax records on Tuesday, indicating he will pay $6.2 million in taxes
on a total of $42.5 million in income over the years 2010 and 2011.
The vulture capitalist released tax returns indicating he and his wife, Ann, paid a rate of 13.9 % in 2010.
They expect to pay a 15.4 percent rate when they file their returns for 2011.
Romney's tax rate is below that of most wage-earning Americans because he is super-rich
and they don't have to pay taxes like us hard-working Americans so get used toi it.
Romney's holdings in the Caymans - along with a secret Swiss bank account that was
closed in 2010 were reported on tax returns and were not vehicles to avoid taxes.
So why let foreign government hold your money if there's no advantage?
Maybe if Willard put his money in American banks, they would have more money
to lend to American small businesses and get this broken economy moving again.
Why does Willard hate America?

Rand Paul 'detained' by TSA
Is
Paul "too big" to be searched?
Link
Today, while en route to Washington, I was detained by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA)
for not agreeing to a patdown after an irregularity was found in my full body scan. Despite removing my belt,
glasses, wallet and shoes, the scanner and TSA also wanted my dignity. I refused.
Obviously, he's lying.
I have $100 that says TSA did not ask for "his dignity."
I wonder why Paul can't tell us what TSA really asked him for?
Perhaps the truth doesn't fit his "big, bad government" narrative?
I'm happy that the TSA doesn't not allow itself to be bullied by powerful,
big-government goons like Rand Paul who think they are above the law.
If Paul had not refused to cooperate, he would've made his flight.

Subject: pronouncing "Gin-rich"
Bart -
In the run - up to the Iowa event, I was watching "Hardball" on MSNBC, and I
heard Tweety Matthews refer to Newt as "Gin-rich", dropping that second "G".
I thought maybe this was a "New England" or "Philadelphia" thing (Tweety is from there).
Much like JFK would talk about the island of "Cuber", rather than "Cuba".
(Although he could say it right at a press conference).
Now, since the South Carolina Massacre, everybody seems to be pronouncing it that way.
BTW, we Iowans are ecstatic that the Clown Road Show has pulled out of town (and that
means GOPers AND the media). A lot of talk here that this was the last "First in the Nation"
event for us - Thank Koresh!!! Some say that it's the screw up in counting the ballots,
but I'd say it's because the Iowa GOP is soooooo stupid that they gave the victory to Santorum!
My guess is that both parties tell the states "Anybody who wants to go before Iowa, go ahead!"
Iowa might keep moving their event up, but they're going to look silly when we have caucuses
in July of 2015 and NO national candidates show up. Serves them right.
Keep hammering - looks like the roaches are running around everywhere.
You're bound to hit something just by swinging!

Adelsons buy states for Newt
Can his wife buy Florida for him, too?
Link
Miriam Adelson, co-owner of The Venetian Hotel, will match her husband’s $5 million contribution to
Newt Gingrich’s presidential bid, a source close to the couple confirmed today.
Sheldon Adelson’s $5 million contribution is credited with Gingrich's victory in South Carolina.
The contribution from Miriam Adelson comes as Mitt Romney has already been spending heavily.
Gingrich’s super PAC recently spent $354,000 four-day ad buy in Tampa, Fla., according to Politico.
Sources close to the Adelsons describe Gingrich as a personal friend. Sheldon Adelson and Gingrich
are both radical Zionists, just like Bartcop, if you ask the religiously-insane.

Subject: RE: the lying captain of the Costa
Concordia
Bart, where the ship capsized is *not* where it hit the rocks.
Go to Google Maps and enter 42.356245,10.93017 into the search box.
The ship was traveling approximately NNW direction when it hit submerged rocks here.
It ripped a 150 foot gash in the port side of the vessel. (Port=Left - Port wine is a red wine
- the red running light is on the left side of the ship).
The captain tried to get the ship into the port of Giglio. The ship made a U-turn (almost 180 degrees)
so that it was traveling almost due south when it heeled over. It's actually sitting with the undamaged
side down. You can see the rip in the hull in some of the images taken from off shore.
You can see in the images that the ship heeled over on its starboard side. The only way
for the ship to have its starboard side towards the shore is if the ship turned around.
Enter 42.365377,10.921673 into Google Maps. This is where the ship came to rest.
It's around a mile from where the ship hit the rocks.
BBC has a good satellite image showing where the ship came to rest in relation to the port of Giglio.

There's a good map of the ship's route in this BBC story.
