RANT: The Press is BHO44’s bitch

Monday, February 18, 2013

THe President gets away from the Press for a golf weekend.

Other than Tiger, what fat cats were with him?

Enquiring minds what to know. What deals were struck? What promises were exchanged?

Where are the yellow dog journalists that like Woodward and Bernstein drive on the truth no matter what the cost?

Oh year, Nixon was an R and Obama is a D!

Argh!

More complaints about “transparency”!

And WMAL radio reported this morning that the “pool reporters had an off-the-record meeting with the President”. The point was who authorized them to agree to “off-the-record”?

My question is WHY was the Press precluded from its normal coverage (as with past Presidents)?

POLITICS: What was BHO44 doing during Benghazi-gate?

Monday, February 18, 2013

Today on WMAL their political reporter asked a very simple question: what was BHO44 doing during the whole Benghazi event?

I’d add what was Hilary (HRC) doing?

The American Press demonstrates how biased they are since if it was an R we would hear this every day!

Argh!

POLITICAL: FACEBOOK gets taxpayer money from BHO44

Facebook Gets a Multibillion-Dollar Tax Break

By Peter Coy on February 15, 2013

It hasn’t drawn much attention, but Facebook’s first annual earnings report contains an accounting gem: a multibillion-dollar tax deduction for the cost of executive stock options and share awards.

Even though Facebook (FB) reported $1.1 billion in pre-tax profits from U.S. operations in 2012, it will probably pay zero federal and state taxes—and even receive a federal tax refund of about $429 million—according to a Feb. 14 statement from Citizens for Tax Justice.

The tax-research and -lobbying organization says companies such as Facebook should treat stock options the same in their reports to shareholders as they do in their tax filings. Citizens for Tax Justice calls the tax footnotes in Facebook’s Jan. 30 financial statement “an amazing admission,” but there’s nothing illegal about the breaks the company is claiming. Companies like Facebook are allowed to treat the cost of non-cash compensation, such as stock options, as an expense that reduces profits, essentially the way they treat cash compensation such as salaries.

*****

Can anyone say — “Crony Capitalism”?

Argh!

INTERESTING: “THE PUB” in 22102 allows smoking

Friday, February 15, 2013

Tonight I found a bar that allows smoking?

It’s attached to a Chinese restaurant.

Strange, I thought the smoking Nazis had wiped out this particular form of freedom.

It could, if it wasn’t for the smoke, become one of my favorite places.

Only two kinds of draft beer — bud and bud light (yuck) — and only a half dozen varieties of bottled beer.

(Not a problem considering I gave up beer and facebook for lent.)

Just shocked me. And reminded me how much I don’t like smoke.

But as a Little L Libertarian, that decision should be left to the owner. Patrons and workers are free to seek other venues.

Argh!

GUNS: NJ = the Pepul’s republik of Nu Jerzee

The New Jersey Democrats have forgotten that we have Constitutional rights. Their rubber stamp judiciary does nothing to reign in the Gooferment. No wonder the “state” is a disaster.

Argh!
