My guess is Fox couldn’t have pressed him any harder on this … but then we will never know will we. Stay with it … its fun to watch Democrats fight.

Is today “float a stupid government idea” day?

By Steve McGough / May 27, 2009 /

Two stories from the news wire today just have me totally baffled. I’m not always thinking “we’re doomed”, but if the Obama administration is considering a national sales tax of 10 percent or more, and has a dork working for him who thinks painting all the roofs in the world white will help stop global…

To Hell With Your Grandchildren and Old People Too

Still think these Governors (other than the four Republicans) are looking out for you. Trust me they are looking out for their re-election. 

Your Health Care Is In Their Hands

By Jim Vicevich / February 23, 2009 /

The President held his economic summit today … and at the wrap up meeting … health care and taxes dominated the conversation. For the most part it was a love fest and my instinct tells me it was more style than substance, and I still have no idea why it was called an economic summit.…

Since we know we can not depend on Social Security for our retirement, many smart investors are depending on 401(k) accounts, IRAs and…

By Steve McGough / August 14, 2008 / Comments Off on New York Times fails math and basic tax collecting courses

On Tuesday, I saw a headline at the New York Times Web site, Study tallies corporations not paying income tax. This type of story is right up our ally since our readers know that corporations don’t pay taxes; people do. I didn’t get to research the story on Tuesday, but Power Line just provided a…
