Kathleen Parker is firmly planted on my shit list

[panader0]

Her article in todays Arizona Daily Star is titled "Inexperienced president making rookie errors".
<snip>
Admittedly, the problem became comical as one after another Obama appointee turned up with tax debts. Q: How do you get Democrats to pay their taxes? A: Appoint them to cabinet positions.
<snip>
Uh Kathleen, you made a quantum leap of logic there.
And then this, refering to Obama's news conference: "Nine minutes into the first answer to the first question, I began missing Bush's customary dispatch."
Jeez Kathleen, you resent having an intelligent, informed man as president? Contact this person at [e-mail]

For senators, tax questions are taxing
By POLITICO STAFF | 2/11/09


When Timothy Geithner appeared before the Senate Finance Committee last month, Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) accused the soon-to-be treasury secretary of “dancing around” questions about his taxes.

When news broke that Tom Daschle had failed to pay taxes due on a car and driver, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) declared himself “very troubled by it.”

But neither Kyl nor Cornyn seems interested in answering questions about his own tax history.

They’re hardly alone.

Last week, Politico asked the offices of all 99 sitting senators to say who prepares their taxes, whether they or the Internal Revenue Service has ever discovered an error on returns they’ve filed, and whether they’ve ever had to pay back taxes.

Of the 57 senators who have responded to the survey, nine said that mistakes have been made on their tax returns, and seven said they have paid back taxes. Thirty-one senators said that no mistakes have been discovered on their returns and that they’ve never paid back taxes — at least to the best of their recollection.

The offices of two senators — Jim Webb (D-Va.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) — told Politico that they would not answer the survey questions. The offices of Kyl and 41 other senators — 17 Republicans, 23 Democrats and Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.) — failed to respond at all.

6. Is Politico a paid arm of the Republic Party?? 'Cause they sure act like it

7. Ding ding ding! You are correct, Sir (or Madam) ... n/t

[babylonsister]

8. I don't know about paid, but I don't much trust them. They

did make a point of including rethugs in the mix of congresscritters who wouldn't disclose their history with the IRS.

4. In one sense, I agree with her

although it's Not. Really. A. Big. Deal.

Obama doesn't need to apologize. Not his fault. He'll get the leadership role down - but ferchrissakes, cut him some slack in his first three effing weeks.

5. When this "rookie" makes a major blunder like the previous "rookie",

like forgetting about "smoking out" Bin Laden & focusing on the wrong target, spending a trillion dollars on the mistake, then her Faux-News style comments would be justified.

Chalk it up to her being an idiot. But do keep her on your shit list. ;)

[wtmusic]

10. An idiot who can't blame it on being a rookie, either. nt

9. Parker was the first Republican commentator to trash Palin.

right after the Couric interviews, Parker said that Palin should step down as VP candidate.

For that alone, I will cut her some slack.

[Captain Hilts]

11. 14% of Wash Post op-eds are written by women, so they added HER to their staff. It stinks.

She blames EVERYTHING on feminism and feminists.

[rurallib]

12. read her once about 5 or 6 years ago.

that was enough for me.

[Brewman_Jax]

13. I've read her "column" before

why is she working instead of being home, making babies, cleaning house, and having dinner ready for her dear husband when he returns. Isn't that what good conservative women do? :crazy:

[Cha]

14. Poor thing is advertising how

shallow she is..and incapable of understanding complete sentences.
