i'm always trying to find the true nature of the liberal agenda. peace? equality? freedom? liberty?

here is a woman (black) on a show (black host):

Source: Corporate Profits After Tax data from the NIPA tables combined with the OMB’s data on the revenue collected by the corporate profit tax.


Quote :
"quit reading media matters you dumb taint-"


Start reading media matters, the sources you're apparently referring to now don't tell you the full story. This is a glaring example, whining about nominal tax rates when it's common knowledge that almost no corporations actually pay the statutory rate. They're actively deceiving you by doing this, knowing that you'll buy anything they say as long as the general gist is "TAXES TOO HIGH! GUBMINT TOO BIG!"

http://reclaimdemocracy.org/corporate_welfare/real_tax_rates_plummet.php

Quote :
"Ostensibly, the U.S. federal tax code requires corporations to pay 35 percent of their profits in income taxes.

But of the 275 Fortune 500 companies that made a profit each year from 2001 to 2003 and for which adequate information to draw conclusions is publicly available, only a small proportion paid federal income taxes anywhere near that statutory 35 percent tax rate. The vast majority paid considerably less.

In fact, in 2002 and 2003, the average effective tax rate for all of these 275 companies was less than half the statutory 35 percent rate. Over the 2001-2003 period, effective tax rates ranged from a low of -59.6 percent for Pepco Holdings to a high of 34.5 percent for CVS.

Over the three-year period, the average effective rate for all 275 companies dropped by a fifth, from 21.4 percent in 2001 to 17.2 percent in 2002-2003. "


This is all 8 years ago, and you can see from the chart above where the trend has moved since then.

santorum is exactly the kind of stupid asshole that wouldnt understand the joke was on him.

he played into it like an idiot because someone told him he was "appealing to the old reagan democrats (lol)."

michael moore had been planning this prank for a LONG time and liberal bloggers thought it was a fairly clever ploy, you just fell short in your turnout.

either that or romney was stronger than you thought?

He got redistricted into the same district as the longest-serving Democratic Rep, and most of the new district was hers. Not surprising. I've heard he may run in Washington.

What? The Republican state legislators redistricted him out of a job. I mean, did you really think this was what was happening or do you deliberately craft misinformation to support your narratives?

Didn't Keith Olbermann get fired from MSNBC for only giving money to the Democratic Party?

And they have a former presidential candidate conducing a democratic political rally while on his show?

Hey...gotta give them credit: They are finally not beating around the bush about which way they lean.

And it isn't forward.

Oh lawd, he used a word correctly that might baffle republican cro-magnons. Throw him to the wolves! Perhaps he should have consulted Frank Luntz and focused grouped the correct verbiage.

Actually, Sherrod Brown is one of the best senators I've come across along with Bernie Sanders.

I always love the hypothetical "If [fill_in_name_of_person_on_the_right] had done this, you'd be outraged and calling for their head/job!!1". It keeps you from having to deal with the reality that there was nothing wrong with what he said while admitting you fail at high school vocabulary.

well played pryderi, and i agree-

i have now settled down, but i get really fucking pissed when liberals only play the PC card when its convenient.

the definition of the goddamn word matters not; the fact of the matter is anybody with a shred of cultural sensitivity and taste avoids using the term. hell, there are plenty of examples of words that fall into this category.

hardcore feminists get pissed off over titillating, for example. it OBVIOUSLY objectifies women. NOBODY really means a bundle of sticks or a welsh meat-dish when theyre discussing faggots.

the fact that this fucking idiot hockeyroman is choosing to be selectively blind in this case its simply astounding, especially considering he chose to insult my intelligence by assuming i didnt know what the word meant!

do you know how many words he could have used to make the same point? as a politician why would you even tread in hazardous territory? although i dont know how he might have used it, how about the ever-popular variation "niggar-rigged?"

yeah you see that one used all the time! i dont know if this has EVER been taken the correct way, but i doubt it!

other words that a person with an IQ of three digits might avoid include:

renege
masticate
philately
query (okay that might be pushing it)
etc

YOU PEOPLE are the ones who have rammed political correctness down the nations throat so youre going to have to play by its rules as well! i dont agree with this guys crucifixion either, but if its the crazy world we live in and its considered to be the norm then HELL NO he doesnt get a pass because hes a democrat.

pull middle english out of your ass for the national news and reap the consequences of your short sightedness. his stupidity is rooted in the fact he didnt think people would notice, but i guarantee after it left his mouth he thought "oh shit" and all his aides off camera immediately filled their underwear.

again, youve created the situation. have fun dealing with it just like the rest of us.

you dont want to move to canada; sharing a continent with us you would still feel the urge to lambast us with 'ey' type commentary and possibly even feel the need to visit.

plus theres bears; trust me you'll be much happier in france.

i've noticed that when some people immediately try to insult someone with a differing belief by calling them a "liberal", the name-caller, more often than not, isn't very smart. often times, the name-callee doesn't even fit the definition of "liberal", as defined by the name-caller. More often than not, the name-callee usually just isn't a staunch conservative.
