Why does any number of lefty groups get tax breaks... like Move-on.org Planned Parenthood, and the SOuthern Poverty Law center... CAIR, La RAZA, etc...
Those are companies. I was referring to individuals.
Edit : NM I see they are orgs too. Sorry.
Not when you name TEA PARTY or PATRIOT groups... those are NO different than any of the groups I mentioned...Quote:

You're funny when you make stuff up. LOL.Quote:

Hello again,
Right wing Utah Republican wants to keep "illegals" out except when hiring them as butlers, nannies or maids.
Please, think of the rich and their need for cheap labor. What are they to do without their poorly paid illegal immigrant servants? Those rich folks NEED their houses cleaned..

How about including a clause that prohibits any new people (illegal aliens) that gain citizenship from being allowed to vote for 25 years if this isn't all about politics and votes.
What ever you wingers come up with it better be good because what you say and do is watched by millions, who aren't wingers.
See I was right... its all about buying votes... you don't give a damn about the people...
Otherwise you would think it's a great way to prove its not about buying votes.
Dude, that's been part of Democrat argument for amnesty for a long time, to do those jobs Americans won't do. I believe you've used it.Quote:

So much for the new era of transparency Obama would usher in... along with free speech, free press, privacy, government neutrality...
It's a stupid amendment... except for one proviso . If someone hires the kid down the street to mow the lawn every week ;or the teenage girl across the street to baby sit ;should it really be necessary to go through e-verify ? The amendment like most of the bills that get passed is probably poorly worded and not specific enough .
You know I would like to believe you but what you are saying is government and politicians are unprofessional, I find that hard to believe
The body of evidence supports my position. These jerks don't even read the amendments and bills that are crafted in their name . They hire flunkies that know how to write in legalese . Only when someone else dissects the written manure do they realize that they screwed up .Quote:

More proof the left doesn't believe the GOvernment is for everyone... they feel its just for them... and they should force the people they hate to foot all of the bills... but Oh... they don't have a say because they don't have any rights like the Illuminatti do.Quote:

No smoothy my statement isn't proof of your position, that's your own twisted spin so you can holler about who deserves what but fact is rich guys have gotten richer and more people have gotten poor because that's what you guys believe in.
The few over the many because you think you are better than the rest of us.
Jon Stewart has an answer to that today, too, in relation to the IRS scandal...Quote:

“This has, in one seismic moment, shifted the burden of proof from the tin foil behatted to the government. The VA claims backlog and the bounced checks and foreclosure clusterf**k had already given government competence fetishists fits. And now this. In a few short weeks, you’ve managed to show that when the government wants to do good things, your managerial competence falls somewhere between David Brent and a cat chasing a laser pointer. But when government wants to flex its more malevolent muscles, YOU’RE F**KIN’ IRON MAN!!”
What this past week has so ably demonstrated is we have damned good and obvious reasons for not trusting government, yet you apparently can't see that? In my opinion you're just upset that this administration's deception, incompetence, and abuse of powers has set your agenda back.
The left only gets upset if they are the ones being forced to bend over the table with their pants around their knees. But think nothing of doing that to others.
I fully expect there to be another Vince Foster Type incident before this is over.
We need To spray this heavily around the White house and the Senate.

Hello:
Allen West is going to challenge EX Tea Party favorite Marco Rubio for his senate seat. Now if that's not the right getting RIGHTER, I don't know what is. I guess Rubio is a RINO now that he wrote the immigration bill.
Who would YOU vote for if you were a Floridian?
excon
Not accurate.
"Former congressman Allen West (R-Fla.) declined Wednesday to rule out a primary challenge against Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) in 2016, but also noted that it would be a “pretty heavy lift.”
"Declined to rule out" does not equal "is gonna."
Hello again, Steve:
Picky, picky, picky!
excon
Why shouldn't he ? Let them put their issues on the table and let the voters decide. No Rubio is not a RINO . He's trying to make an impossible situation work . He won't get anywhere however because Reid has already determined that he can make more political hay by stalling the bill in the Senate ;and blaming the Repubics for it .
Hello again, tom:
Nahhh... The Senate is going to pass it. It's the Tea Party kooks in the House who're going to stop it.
But, every right winger is afraid of being primaryied, aren't they?
excon
Right.
No I'd say the TP is in good position to do some primary(ing ) . Just don't know why West would go for Rubio's seat when Rick Scott has proven to be a Rovian RINO.
If you get rid of the Rino's, minorities, women, and young people, whose left to vote for you?
Hello again, tom:
Let me see. Rick Scott just made marijuana pipes illegal whether used or not, putting head shops out of business. He just signed an ALEC bill that killed sick pay. And, he LOOKS like a rabid right winger. How come the Tea Party isn't loving him?
excon
Christie takes on the unions all the time too and I think he's a RINO . But you are in error . The bill does not "kill" paid sick leave. I'm sure the majority of Florida employers offer their employees paid sick leave and the bill does nothing to block employers from offering that benefit. The bill gives Florida employers a choice . They are just not required by law to pay workers for days they don't show up for work . You are an employer so you know that many employees abuse the benefit . To them it's a "use it or lose it " proposition . So often it becomes in effect the equivant of vacation benefit.
Hate to sound harsh about it ;but that is a fact .
You apparently suffer from that liberal "if it’s not mandatory, it's banned" mentality.Quote:

I tried to refrain from using the “lie” word against the Democrats saying these things and the journalists repeating them as if they were true, because I think the liberal mindset sometimes doesn’t differentiate between state action and non-state action. If your boss says you need to pay for your own birth control, that may actually seem to some liberals as equivalent to the government banning birth control, somehow. Some liberals think that unless something is mandatory, it’s as good as prohibited.
Sure enough, the liberal ThinkProgress blog this week talks that way involving paid sick leave.
Some local governments in Florida want to force employers to pay their employees for sick days. The state government just passed a law saying municipalities may not do this. Think Progress writes: “Florida Governor Signs Business-Backed Bill Banning Paid Sick Leave.”
But of course, the bill doesn’t “ban paid sick leave.” If it did, it would become illegal for employers to pay employees for sick days. Instead of restricting employers, the bill restricts local government and protects the freedom of employers in this regard.
My itch is will state law conflict with federal law? That's nullification if it does.
Nullification
If state Law conflicts with federal law... federal law trumps it. Assuming the federal law stands up to be challenged as constitutional.Quote:

So here we go, America wants jobs and a better economy and what do we get? Gun control, amnesty and climate change. But wait, you say this will be good for the economy?Quote:
Obama to announce Tuesday he will regulate existing power plants as part of climate strategy
President Obama will announce Tuesday in a speech at Georgetown University that he plans to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions from existing power plants, according to individuals who have been briefed on the plan but asked not to be identified.
So we're sitting on this huge stockpile of clean natural gas and we're going to once again grow our energy instead of food? Didn't we just have a bipartisan effort to repeal the ridiculous ethanol mandate, another folly no one wanted foisted on us?Quote:
In Saturday’s statement, Obama emphasized the economic opportunities that could come from tackling carbon emissions.
“We’ll need scientists to design new fuels, and farmers to grow them,” he said. “We’ll need engineers to devise new sources of energy, and businesses to make and sell them.”
I miss buying corn on the cob 10 for a dollar, I won't miss ethanol.
Oh cr@P ! Another idiot pushing for farmers using productive land to grow biofuels !No doubt there will be more subsidies to ADM and higher food prices for the rest of us.Quote:
“We'll need scientists to design new fuels, and farmers to grow them,”
Yep.Quote:

Anybody want to go into the biofuels bidness? I'll bet we can get some Obama money? And, I PROMISE, I won't smoke it up.
