George Jeferrson of the Jeffersons - dead at 74. I liked George even though he had a lot of short comings.

I turned the TV to a Public Broadcast station and could not believe what the person was saying. It appeared to be a 1 hour documentary in which the producer claimed the USA was #1 in the world in manufacturing! #1 in manufacturing goods - not #1 in manufacturing employees. I think what the USA needs is for our citizens to become familiar with our country - civic pride.

Sally Ride, 'America's' first woman astronaut, died from pancreatic cancer. She was 61.

Republicans claim Obama has got to learn to become an 'American'! Does that mean he has to get a few off shore bank accounts?

Rush Limbaugh The latest Batman movie "The Dark Night Rises" Aura, Colorado's latest shooting and Romney's Bain/Bane seem to have a lot in common. The saga continues........ with Obama escaping into the darkness.......

Mitt Romney's father was born in Mexico. As a Mexican citizen his off springs can have Mexican citizenshp. Does that mean Mitt Romney can end up being Mexico's favorite son?

If you look at Mitt Romney's birth certificate, it looks like is fradulent..... the problem it is not the original and with Mitt Romney's birth certificate it looks like it has the date it was retrieved. The Republicans insist on original birth certificates but I don't know one person who has an original. I asked one Doctor and he claims the State keeps the originals. Does that mean we are all illegals?

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is from Arizona, USA which covers the Phoenix, AZ area. Between him and the Mexican border are 3 other counties. He acts like he borders the Mexican border and it is only him who knows how to run things 'properly'. He is generally listed as the meanest Sherriff in the nation. It is hard to believe a Sherriff would take as credible information he gets from his posse that works for free. They aren't even police officers. If the birth certificate is fraudulent, why is it a concern of a county Sherriff? Why isn't the State of Hawaii getting involved? Why not the Feds? It seems that Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s distaste for Obama could lead up to an interesting altercation if the Sherriff decides to arrest Obama if he should visit Phoenix.

Romney's ancestors were chased out of the USA and were subject to arrest. I suspect several of them would have been arrested probably on felon charges because of their religious views on poloygamy. So did the parents of Mitt Romney's father register his birth at the American Embassey? I doubt it. For all purposes I would say they left the USA so as to never return. When Mexico became hostile to the Mormon communities they fled back to the USA. Is there any records of them crossing back into the USA legally? If the birth was not registered then could Mitt Romney's father really be a USA citizen?

Maybe it had to do with the idea that Mitt's father was born about 40-50 miles south of Arizona. McCain is from Arizona.

In 1999 Romney claims he took a leave from Bain Capital so as to manage the Salt Lake City Olympics. But what is interesting is that from 1999 to 2002, Mitt Romney was listed on the Securities and Exchange Commission as Bain Capital’s “sole stockholder, chairman of the board, chief executive officer and president.†So is Mitt Romney responsible for what happened at Bain Capital from 1999 to 2002?

Have you noticed the number of Republicans buying their kids' toya at Toy R' US and buying Dunkin Donuts? Both controlled by Blaine Capital.

Mitt Romney should be able to handle Iran just like Blaine Capital flushed Ampad and what about a New England Bank that got sucked?

The US Border Patrol was getting their uniforms from Mexico.

One thing the Republicans have failed to acknowledge is when people go to the hospital and forget to pay and some of those people file bankruptcy (which means they don't have to pay most if not all of their other bills) - it is the rest of us who have to pay for these problems.

Sunday and Monday are suppose to be the big day to see if some malware nails your computer.

Libyans get to vote today. Will they vote for the right party? Democracy in action....

Zimmerman made 1 million dollars bail.

If you see a guy show up with an overcoat and you notice he has a sawed off shotgun, what would you do? Sure the agent whips out his badge but they are trained so you can not hold it to see if it is real. I was at a restaurant one day when an IRS agent and a city detective came in and whipped out their badges. I was at the end of the counter and all I could say is "I have some just like those!" Besides, do US Postal workers walk around with sawed off shotguns?

Haven't you learned how to google? Info from your NEW favorite website dated February 2, 2010 My link "The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) intends to purchase sixty Remington Model 870 Police RAMAC #24587 12 gauge pump-action shotguns for the Criminal Investigation Division. The Remington parkerized shotguns, with fourteen inch barrel, modified choke, Wilson Combat Ghost Ring rear sight and XS4 Contour Bead front sight, Knoxx Reduced Recoil Adjustable Stock, and Speedfeed ribbed black forend, are designated as the only shotguns authorized for IRS duty based on compatibility with IRS existing shotgun inventory, certified armorer and combat training and protocol, maintenance, and parts."

Zimmerman is trying to cough up a million dollars for bail!

A few years ago IRS Collectors were issued 'sawed off' shotguns. I don't think their usage is to help us.

1054 auditors - their primary duties are to bring in revenue via an audit. As far as tax credits - if a tax payer can't figure out a tax credit - don't expect a revenue agent to help you. as far as I am concerned - auditors are at the bottom of the food chain. Tax collectors are at the bottom.

I don't think the IRS arrests and put in prison many people each year.... they just seize assets without due process and even go to the point of getting judgments without due process to seize as much as 15% of a person's Social Security benefits. I don't think things will get better.
