Federal contractors donate to ‘super PAC’ backing Romney It’s unclear whether a ban on such giving is still valid after the Supreme Court ruling that freed up independent political spending. A “super PAC” that has spent more than $35 million on behalf of Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney has accepted donations from federal contractors despite a 36-year-old ban against such companies making federal political expenditures. …. One federal contractor who gave to the super PAC says it is confident the contribution is legal. Oxbow Carbon, a major coal and petroleum company, gave $750,000 to Restore Our Future last year. The private company has sold more than $10 million worth of coal over the last 13 years to the Tennessee Valley Authority, a federally owned corporation created by Congress. Oxbow’s founder, Palm Beach, Fla., billionaire William Koch, gave the super PAC another $250,000 personally, a donation that is not prohibited by the ban. His twin brother, David, and older brother, Charles, are famous for their lavish support for conservative causes. http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-contractor-politics-20120318,0,5184326.story » Posted By bito On March 18, 2012 @ 9:49 pm Wonder if Rick will have a conflict of interest between the Pope and Tony Perkins? » Posted By bito On March 17, 2012 @ 11:50 pm Uploaded by BarbaraBoxer on Mar 13, 2012 I thank three Oscar-winning song writers — Marvin Hamlisch and Alan & Marilyn Bergman — for allowing me to play their moving song, “A Woman’s Voice,” with iconic images that speak to my heart and I hope to yours.

» Posted By bito On March 15, 2012 @ 11:41 pm Dear C’Lady, First, I’m sad to hear about your friend, second, I happen to be a bit familiar with lymphoma. I would offer the the young man the chance to be both a bit of a risk taker and a hero to other 19 year olds of the future–Get involved in clinical trials! Many University hospitals have such programs. Thousands of people have and do, not for just themselves but for others. When I was in my teens I remember hearing the words “They have lymphoma” was close to hearing “They will probably die.” A death sentence. Not so now. 20 years ago, 70% of lymphoma patients never went into remission, 30% did. Today that number is flipped because of the many unsung heroes that became involved in clinicals. Can any one find such a track record on the “Mexican Cancer Clinics?” Nope. Talk about rip-offs. (BTW, most types of lymphoma are not curable, many do go into long term remission.) » Posted By bito On March 15, 2012 @ 10:31 pm Zandar @ZandarVTS Tell us again how the 50’s were great and people like me couldn’t vote without the threat of a rope and a tree, Mitt. » Posted By bito On January 31, 2012 @ 5:55 pm anuary 29, 2012 11:00 AM Grover Norquist, The Man Who Really Runs The GOP BTW: I don’t need no stinking electit.

His total income for the year was listed as $21.6 million, more than one-half of which came from capital gains. How does that stack up against your income? Just guessing that many don’t object to HOW much Mitt made but it is how he made it and the tax rate most of wage earners pay. » Posted By bito On January 25, 2012 @ 11:31 pm k’es, It is one of the blogs we follow on twitter that I look at to see what the points are and the “great divide” is all about. Do they read PPOV and say the same thing? Dos guys are commies! » Posted By bito On January 25, 2012 @ 8:43 pm The “other side?” Governor Mitt Romney has finally capitulated to the nation’s wealth-haters, releasing his tax records months before primary candidates typically do to quell swelling resentment fueled by Occupy Wall Streeters, left-leaning media, and boobs like Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry, and John Huntsman. (Thanks, GOP candidates!) Of course Romney’s forthrightness isn’t good enough for the left, who now argue that he must release a dozen or perhaps 20 years of tax records, so we can spend the next ten months scrutinizing them for rounding errors and keep the focus off President Obama’s record. Obama-friendly journalists are suggesting Romney also release information on his complete financial portfolio, his retirement accounts, his trust funds for his wife and children, and sworn affidavits from eyewitnesses that he never cheated at Monopoly. (When is the media going to demand that Obama release his college transcripts?) Romney’s tax records showed apoplectic liberals and gullible mainstream media that he paid 14% federal income tax on the $42 million he earned in 2010 and 2011. Doesn’t sound like a lot? It’s much higher than the percentage shelled out by the 47% of Americans who pay no federal income taxes, and it’s more than the effective tax rate of 97% of Americans. And More of this: link » Posted By bito On January 25, 2012 @ 6:09 pm Sally, many of the homes have just been abandoned after foreclosure, the banks didn’t even bother to show up at the court-ordered sale.

Congress couldn’t even close that loophole on the second “vacation” houses the last time it came up. Yepper, who get’s the deductions on a rental unit?

The last time it was changed was under Raygun and Tip and that was when there were 10-15% of the lobbyists that there are now. If they were really interested in doing that they would have voted for the Simpson-Bowles commision, that was part of it. They want to sing but refuse to dance. I have heard the excuse 17 times today from the R’s, “there are 47% of the people that don’t pay any income tax” conveniently forgetting the FICA tax. » Posted By bito On January 25, 2012 @ 4:25 pmComments Posted By bito
I wonder if the times I was arrested for “resiting arrest” in Florida, if I had told the police that I was a member of Local Union #(&^#^^, a member of the state AFL-CIO and a state delegate that they would have arrested me. Those credentials are as good as a non-charter member of Neighborhood crime watch, aren’t they? 🙂 no, they didn’t believe me either, they arrested me.
Would Mr. Zimmerman have felt “threatened” if he would have turned his car around and driven away when he was told to not follow him? There are so many things wrong with this and what is this part about him being “part Hispanic? That excuses him from being raciest? Go to Florida and listen to some of the comments Cuban’s say about Mexicans and visa-versa. And isn’t that Zimmerman name sorta Jewish sounding? 😉
Why did Mr. Zimmerman shoot the young man? Couldn’t he find a tree to hang his ‘Strange Fruit?”

(MSM) story? Gov. Jan wags her finger at PBO and scolds him, like she says in an interview, we all saw the photo, read what Gov. (one too many) Brew-ster said in the interview right?
Where and how was the photo that was published taken? Where is the limo in the background, where are the Secret Service in the photo?
I’m sure that there is a perfect explanation, beyond the MSM’s story.

How long would it take the GOP candidate to earn what you make in a year?
What percentage do people of Mitts ilk pay into FICA, .00002 percent? How much do you is your FICA contribution? Mitt’s contribution to Social Security is fulfilled in two days. Yours?
I read the posts, but I never comment, you’re brave but then you are a better writer, more articulate, than I am.
The holes in that post would be in the rag bag and close to the garbage can, but it was interesting.
One huge hole is the claim of “double taxation” because Mitt already paid taxes on it once, nope, partners in equity firms don’t pay earned income, it’s
all taxed at 15% investment rate. Quiz me this, k’es, how many times and how often have you filed deferred “losses” on your earnings on your taxes? Perhaps I am asking the wrong person, we all know that RN’s make a minimum of 2k, starting wages, eh?
Romney Paid Through the Nose
Of course, the poor can get a subsidy for rental costs, it’s the law. (the last time I checked there is a 4-5 year wait for low income housing in our county, think they could do something with all the homes the banks foreclosed on and abandoned?)
