I know I posted an article on what federal workers owe the IRS. I’ll add
this :
“36 Members Of The Obama Administration Owe $800,000 In Back Taxes
A new report just out from the Internal Revenue Service reveals that 36 of President Obama’s executive office staff owe the country $833,970 in back taxes.
Nearly one-third of Obama’s aides make more than $100,000 with 21 being paid the top White House salary of $172,200, each. ”

Not even showing up is like giving us all the finger.

A very good article ‘ The president’s big greenwash’ is available @ CNN Money / tech fortune
“Perhaps the Obama administration has set the bar for green success too low. Anything that does not implode or burst into flames qualifies as a success.”

Hope you all are having a good day. It’s a beautiful one here in TN.
NBC Rock Center 2.87 P+2 viewers. Now we wait for **Hannity’s numbers.
**I don’t think Hannity will beat Rock Center. The honorable Applestinx pointed out RC was getting in Hannity’s range & that Bill O was consistently beating RC. Rock Center will beat them both this week. OK I’m on the record & prepared for Applestinx’s wrath of ridicule if Bill O wins.
@REM: >>> I said, ‘Welcome to Conservatism.’ <<<
I LOVE THIS STORY.
A “Daily Show” segment that criticized Fox News for ignoring the GOP’s “war on women” while highlighting the left’s “war on Christmas” has drawn the ire of the Catholic League.
Cue onscreen photo-illustration of a “vagina manger,” and a pair of statements from Catholic League president Bill Donohue:

I’m watching Martin Bashir for the entertainment aspect, as I do with most MSNBC programs and what I find particularly annoying is even if a guest explicitly states that they are extremely middle of the road. When re-telling stories they detail the republican f*ck-up and then follow it by a glossed over democrat f*ck-up.
For instance, this guest said “Romney traveled with a dog on the top of his car X years ago, causing xyz vs. the culinary habits of a kid in Indonesia”.
Granted, I don’t believe that an Indonesian eating dog in their country if that their thing is particularly wrong but they should be prepared to deal with Americans recoiling at the idea.
