This is thoroughly unsurprising

If they are paid over the table, they probably overpay taxes -- because they aren't going to file for a refund, and they likely won't ever make Social Security claims (even if they tried, if a fake tax ID is used, it'd be hard to substantiate entitlement to the benefits).

This is too idiotic to even respond to.

Thanks for admitting your mistake.

I thought it was further evidence that the Dems in the Senate like to talk tough, but when push comes to shove, they are a bunch of spineless bastards.
Duly noted.

That would have been a great way to stop the surge. Keep refusing to confirm a general to fill Petraeus's position.

Why not? - It's not as if they haven't been filibustering everything else for the last 6 years

What planet have you been orbiting?

Name one bill or appointment the Democrats have filibustered that has had anything to do with the way the war in Iraq has been prosecuted.

I believe these trials on the detention of Islamin extremists would be going more our way with Chief Justioce Bork on the high bench.

In a place like Texas, where there is no income tax, everyone's paying the same in taxes, either through property tax or renting a place where someone pays property tax or through sales tax. Doesn't really have much of an impact on the state's services.

Quick - name the decade that one happened!

I'm not even sure Adder was born then. This is how far back you have to go to find something?

Just the sight of him would have scared them into submission.

You don't have federal income tax in Texas?

Fuck, I'm moving.

The Democrat party (Hi!) filibustered anything and everything to prevent a vote on the merits. We hardly need to provide a link to prove this truism.

And Ty builds a straw man by asking "what bill on Iraq has been filibustered" - when the whole point is that the Senate has been too afraid to PROPOSE any bills on Iraq, until now.

Talk tough, act weak.

like the Guinness guys say - Brilliant!!!!

Book by Iowahawk
Music by Frederick Loewe and Alan Jay Lerner
Based on “Fascist Pigmalian” by the Netroots Community

SENATOR JOHN EDWARDS
I tell you why there are two Americas, my dear Dr. Dean. Man is a product of his environment.

HOWARD DEAN
Balderdash! “So bententh the tree,” say I. Take the insane Bush cabal that plotted 9-11, for instance, genetically rotted from root to branch.

EDWARDS
This is where you are wrong my friend, and I shall prove you so. Take the young woman over there, banging on the keyboard.

HOWARD DEAN (sniffing)
The one who reeks of cat urine? Ghastly! What of her?

EDWARDS
I am prepared to wager my indoor squash court that I can train her to be a proper presidential campaign representative.

AMANDA MARCOTTE
Fucking suckwad cocksuck fundy fuckwit godbag cunt!

HOWARD DEAN
Ha-ho! I will gladly indulge you in your foolish wager, Senator
EDWARDS
I say, good woman... what is your name?

AMANDA
Amanda fucking Marcotte... Pandagon to you, you motherfucking cocksucking tool of the Southern fucking white fucking racist patriarchy!

EDWARDS
Young woman, how would like a job as my official blog master!

AMANDA
No shit?!!

WOULDN'T IT BE FUCKERLY (AMANDA)

All I want is a blog somewhere,
Far away from the wingnuts' glare.
With a fucking Aeron chair,
Aow, wouldn't it be fuckerly?

Lots of room to let off steam,
Lots of commenters, lots of scream.
Getting paid by the Edwards team,
Aow, wouldn't it be fuckerly?

Aow, so fuckerly bein' abso-fuckin'-lutely shrill.
I would never stop 'till spring
Crept over me windowsill.

Plastic Bush head on a spike,
assistant who's a vegan dyke. these and other things I like,
Aow, wouldn't it be fuckerly?
Fuckerly, fuckerly, fuckerly, fuckerly
[REPEAT]

EDWARDS
Delightful! See you monday morning.

---

It keeps going.
