    Hello again, tom:

    Yes, it's true. Republican hypocrisy doesn't cost us money. It shatters lives... Preaching moral purity for others, while engaging in moral depravity for yourself, HAS resulted in the denial of civil rights to a significant segment of our population.

    Cheating for money, I understand. Cheating for the sake of screwing your fellow citizen, I don't.

    Having more ammo is certainly debatable, but if you weren't so busy baiting us you'd admit you already know I have no use for hypocrites on either side.

    You misunderstand me. Alex Jones is the liberal version of Breitbart, just like Arianna Huffington is the liberal Matt Drudge.

    I have no use for Jones either, we're in agreement there but that wasn't my source. Feel free to Google any of those people in my post.

    And it this juncture we're discussing this particular hypocrite. We can discuss Rangel, too if you like. I mentioned him to you 2 days ago to no response.

    Did I say anything at all about sources? Why do you quote me and make a answer based on nothing that you quoted? Oh I know, it's because you want to change the discussion.

    I don't know about the Republicans... but I think someone who creams in his pants at the thought of increasing taxes on other peoples money should probably not attempt to so arrogantly show his contempt of the tax system he and his cronies champion.

    Uh, you said "I always wonder what the reasoning is behing people what start these threads." Huffpo raised the issue and started a thread about it, I just brought it over here.

    Oh I know, it's because you want to change the discussion.
    Nope, I'm fine with staying on the subject of liberal hypocrites.

    Ok guys, many many moons ago I was a yacht broker in Ft. Lauderdale and sold yachts or boats or whatever. You all seemed to miss the "boat" on this one. Notice where it says "charter" the boat out. Duh. Kerry is going to make his $7M yacht a charter boat to avoid all kinds of taxes and have essentially a "free" boat for him to cruise around in. Yard fees, dockage, maintenance etc on a yacht that big would cost a small fortune out of his personal pocket if he didn't incorporate this into a business setting. This way he can essentially "write off" just about ALL of the damned boat cost and still "own" a nice ride. I'll wager that this "charter boat biz" actually "costs" money to run and he ends up paying zero taxes on that "business".

    Ain't it grand that we have such wonderful tax dodges as our fine elected officials? Bet his attorney worked overtime dreaming up this scheme to "save" Kerry some hard earned (joke here please) money.

    Also, NK, yes, it's well known that the Repubs are slime but then so are the Dems. It seems that only the "slimes" get elected in this country. What's wrong with that? Everything. But no one wants to run for office that is decent and nonblackmailable. At least they don't get into the primaries. Wonder why? Probably because they can't be blackmailed and bought off. But then, who would vote for an upstanding, honest citizen? Lots of people would but unfortunately their votes won't count due to all the voter fraud and the election box rigging going on with the electronic voting machines.

    But why a sloop ? I understand why he wouldn't purchase a Yankeee Clipper out of misguided loyalty to the Red Sox .But you would think a Bhramin would purchase a Boston Whaler..
