My parents will receive an extra $250 check for social security.

For anyone here who will get the SS check please read this. You may end up having to return some of it in next year's tax filing.

The Social Security Administration is sending out $250 payments to more than 50 million retirees in May as part of the economic stimulus package. The payments will go to people who receive Social Security, Supplemental Security Income, railroad retirement benefits or veteran's disability benefits.

The payments are meant to provide a boost for people who don't qualify for the tax credit. However, they will go to retirees even if they have earned income and receive the credit. Those retirees will have the $250 payment deducted from their tax credit -- but not until they file their tax returns next year, long after the money may have been spent.

They've even managed to visit the country of Texas.

Is this real? That's friggin hilarious.

Nope, it's another fake being passed as truth:

We've seen this before.

ETWolverine · May 1, 2009, 07:57 AM

Or maybe they realized the mistake and changed it.

Whatever.

I love a self-assured liberal... especially when I get to deliver a smack down.

State Department Lists Texas as a Foreign Country

I can't imagine why State would want to scrub that mistake from their website.

Website typos happen all the time. I fix them as part of my job. Is that what you are laughing at? You need very little to amuse yourself.

No. What we're laughing at is the fact that the so-called "smartest administration" has a STATE DEPARTMENT that mistakes Texas for a foreign country. The "smartest administration" seems to be pretty stupid if they can call the second largest state of the USA (in terms of land mass AND population), the one that the prior President comes from, a foreign country. We're not laughing at them fixing it. We're laughing at the fact that they made the mistake in the first place. Fixing it was a GOOD thing.

At this particular time I'm not laughing at the Obama administration. You figure it out.

NK, I cannot believe that you really want to push this argument.

The State Dept. under Princess Hillary and the Genius Messiah Obama screwed up, and the error was very funny. Just accept it and move on.

Oh You didn't know they made that mistake on the web site on purpose. They figured you guys needed a little laugh since your party is going the way of the Dodo.

Maybe one of these this will help you figure it out.

How many of these do we see actual proof of so far?
Smoke and mirrors! I won't believe it until I actually see things turn around for the good.
The lefties said ONE American soldier being killed was one too many. 100 days later how many have been killed?

Twinkerdoodle
Don't forget to add that expensive 'rent a rock' errrr I mean fly over ground zero to the list. What American President has ever let anything like that happen before?

Of course. He is going to be the great unifier the same way that Fundamentalist Islam is the great unifier... "Do it my way or else."

Genghis Kahn was a unifier too... He killed all his enemeis. "He created a desert and called it peace." After that, everyone was unified.

I'm not saying that Obama is planning on killing anyone or using force to get his way (at least not yet). But his idea of unification is to get rid of the opposition, which makes him no different from any other despotic "unifier".

Hello El:

Of course, we see it differently. I see reality. You're dreamin. The problem here, is the opposition is destroying itself and blaming Obama.

Another problem is you guys think "unifier" means adopting at least SOME of your totally repudiated right wing viewpoints... I have NO idea where you dreamed THAT up.

What "unifier" means in the REAL world, is that Obama has politely invited your side to "unify" itself with the correct side. Of course, your side said no. That's why it's disintegrating.

PS> You should be happy about one thing. Obama has supported Bush in not letting the detainees have habeas corpus.

That's BIG. You should be kissing Obama's butt.
